I tend to buy cheaper books because I like to underline things and write in the margins, so it'd be a waste to buy nice clothbound editions or hardcovers, and usually such modestly priced collections are on the cheaply manufactured side, with thin paper and thin print, since you're getting so much to the dollar (seven GREAT books along with good intro and other writings about her works), but that isn't the case here. This isn't merely a cheap anthology for people like me who like to write in their books, like I had expected it to be. The paper is as thick as it is in regular books, the cover is gorgeous, and it comes in a protective box that's also gorgeous. Completely exceeded what I had expected it to be, considering the kind of cheap anthologies I like to buy are cheaply made (even though they suit my purposes)
There's only one minor problem, which is the fact that the book is so huge that it's no good for people who hold their books when they read, but that's no problem for people who read like me, with the book lying flat on a pillow or resting on my lap.
So if you want an easy way to get a hold of all six of Jane Austen's completed novels (plus one of her unfinished, with nice additional materials), and you're not at all put off by the size and weight of something like this, I would highly recommend, this is an excellent product.

Poor formatting, and persuasion wasn’t included
I actually returned this for a refund. Persuasion isn’t included.The formatting isn’t good. Most of the books have links to each chapter, except Sense and Sensibility. A lot of words have no spacing between them, I included a screenshot of examples of that.
