Product Description
Tefillin Gassot (“thick phylacteries”) are made out of a single piece of thick leather shaped by repeatedly applying several tons of pressure in industrial presses as part of a complicated, but delicate and exacting production process. The resulting battim (“houses”) are so thick and durable that they can be reshaped even if damaged.
All stages of production, from inserting the parchments to closing and painting the battim and all other finishing steps of making your tefillin are done with careful adherence to halacha. These tefillin gassot are ohr echad and kosher l'chatchila.

Beautiful and TOP QUALITY Tefillin ! Bens Shop is The Best !!
The Tefillin is Beautiful. Ben assisted me in making sure I had the Tefillin with the proper knots and straps that I wanted. Ben at the Tallit and Tefillin Shop is GREAT ! The finished product that was shipped WAS PERFECT and 100% as we discussed. Ben included protective cases for the Tefillin that other stores may charge EXTRA for. I would highly recommend this product, with any options as you choose, and using Bens Shop for the purchase. I chose the full DHL shipping with the FULL tracking updates. The Item was packed PERFECTLY and it arrived here in South Florida 1 day earlier than originally estimated. PERFECT TRANSACTION and PRODUCT from A-Z. Thanks to Ben and all of the Rabbinical craftsmen involved !!

Tefillin Gassot
Outstanding quality. The velvety box and long straps, finely polished on one side and matt black on the other, are exquisitely crafted and the sweet smell of the workshop when you first open the package is a joy. The tefillin ship with a beautifully embroidered bag and gold embossed black plastic protective cases for the boxes which will help them to last a lifetime or more, along with detailed certification for the scrolls. The experience was completed by BTS's attentive and seamless customer support.

Excellent Customer Service, Fine-Quality Product, Highly Recommend
Thank you Ben and team for the excellent service! I purchased these Tefillin along with a Beit Yosef Prestige Tallit. Although they were a bit on the pricey side, and the wait for the stock to come in prior to shipping was relatively long, putting all things into consideration, it was well worth it in the end! They even upgraded my shipping to Expedited, by which the package arrived super fast, just in time for Rosh Hashanah! The Tallit and Tefillin are both absolutely gorgeous and I cannot ask for more! No disappointment, no regrets, would highly recommend! ברוך השם ושנה טובה! =)
