I recently purchased Boretti's Emotion/Sensor Box and it is absolutely fantastic! Beautiful craftsmanship as well as a fun premise. The prop is obviously fantastic but there was another element that I felt I had to share, and that was Boretti's amazing customer service. He was fast to respond and even helped fix a major issue that was caused by the ruthless shipping company workers. Thank you for a great product and an even greater customer experience.

Yep, gotta agree 110% with you Anthony, awesome customer service from the Boretti team in very difficult times.
Had mine for a year now. Got the plain white version.
Only performed for my extended family due to lockdowns etc but it went over so amazingly.
It is an absolute fun and super entertaining routine to do.

No it doesn’t fold down. I was lucky and found a large multi wine bottle cooler bag in a $ store that fits perfect, but I also have a small magicians stand/table to keep it on for performing. Luv it.

They are 2 different methods
Both have an advantage and a disadvantage over the other
With Borettis you can show the box empty by sliding the front up and revolving the box so it can be seen from all angles, lower the front and without any moves you are ready to place the barbed wire (for instance) in and you are ready to do it. Trying to be vague so as not to expose the method of either box.
You cannot remove the front slide completely in the Boretti box and some may consider that a disadvantage - I don't.
Hope that helps.

Hello.
two quick question to who know both boxes (hakan and boretti)
1)in the boretti, how many object can be used? how many phases in the routine?
2) what's the maximum dimension of the various objects (stone, shoe, cactus etc.)? from the video online seems the object have to be really small or flat

thank you

Hi, I'm thinking of buying one, can anyone tell me an example of a rotine and what props do you use besides the usual sponge/stone?
I will use it with elementary school children.

Thank you

Hi all
When I searched on the internet, there are a few options. some are expensive and some are not.
I am curious who is the inventor of this effect.
In order to not buy a rip off item, which page should I go to?
Thank you.

Boretti Box came before the Hakan Varol Emotion Box. Boretti came up with the idea in 1995. Varol Box probably would not have been developed if not for Boretti. Though, I believe Varol's Emotion Box uses different methodology and I hear is a much more surprising routine. The Emotion Box looks more innocent and can break down for transport. I do not know how durable it is. I do know that Boretti's Sensor Box is very durable but does not break down. Varol's Box is 4 to 5 times more expensive than Boretti's but someone I spoke with had both and kept Varol's Emotion Box. Both boxes accomplish the same end result. I do think you can use slightly larger objects in the Emotion Box by Varol.
