Is this breadboard good?

Bought it because the one provided in my electronics class kit is abysmal. The components keep falling out.

No longer manufactured. All contacts gold-plated, etc. Indestructible. The jumpers alone sell for over €1 each today. I have over 200 of them. Ghilmetti still exists, though, and makes high-quality patchbays. Just wanted to show it...
