This is one solid set and very worth the price of $22.00! The menorah is a heavy brass colored metal. The candles have a little lip, that allows them to all sit straight and at the same height in the menorah with very little effort. The gelt (coins) are also made of metal and clink nicely when they touch. The coins are 2 wheat pennies and a Barber dime, all dated 1914. The dreidel has the Hebrew letters in the correct spots, and is made of unpainted wood.

I have the Hanukkah set and I LOVE it! It's very well-made (real metal menorah), easy to play with (although there are lots of small pieces so it's definitely not for young kids) and SO ADORABLE. Pix:

This set is adorable. I got mine after Hanukkah so I haven't taken most things out of their wrappers yet.
Here are size comparisons.
Set in general
Chanukiyah compared to doll's waist
Coins compared to real wheat pennies

I really enjoy this set. The menorah is beautiful with the Lion of Judah theme. It is heavy and has an authentic feel to it. Beautiful with play factor as well. Much easier for my children to play with the candles as compared to the JLY set.
