A Mini Watercolor Palette in a Holster? Yes please! Funto Pocket Watercolor Set Review

I bought this palette about 5 minutes after I saw it. I'm not proud of that. I didn't even know if it came with paint or not but I was willing to take a gamble and I have no regrets. I have a feeling they listed it at a low price and it might go up so I wanted to get a review out before that happened.

Pros:
*The palette is sturdy and made of thick plastic that is not brittle. The hinges on the palette wings move easily but they do not feel flimsy at all
*The palette is easy to open
*Comes with a swatch sheet, clip, carabineer, and holster
*The holster is well made, the stitching is perfect and it is very lightweight to wear clipped to a belt loop. There is a key ring sewn into the back for attaching it to whatever you like.
*It is beautiful

Cons:
The paint isn't great so I removed it and replaced it with some watercolor I had. You can squeeze paint in the sections after prying out the nuggets of paint it comes with. Each square will hold about a half pans worth of paint but standard half pans will not fit in the squares.

If you are considering buying this for the paint I do not recommend it, instead you can get a better quality in 36 colors from the Meilang/Pretty Excellent set: https://amzn.to/3KMjgxL

*This is the palette I pulled the pans from, it's the old style and they still have some and its on sale https://amzn.to/3xpLtHF

If you are buying it for the palette and holster I 100% recommend it! Swap out the paint though.

I also showed a well-made wooden watercolor palette that was empty, here is the link for that if you are interested. I was very surprised at how nice it was for the price. https://amzn.to/45po31P

*I bought this palette for the palette and I think it was worth the price for the palette. The paint is not great, it is like the Jerry Q Arts palette I reviewed many years ago in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20RbRPk4IqY On the upside the colors are vibrant and would be suitable when bright, non-moving color is what you want, especially on cardstock or coloring book pages.
