Bottom Line

This affordable map also includes more features than many of its competitors.

Pros

For a cheaper map that is neither small nor lacking in features, this is a great choice. Landmasses stick out against the dark ocean. We love how the revealed map has vibrant colors. Includes outlines of U.S. states and country flags along bottom, and it comes with a phone camera lens and scratching tool. 32 x 23 inches.

Cons

The foil layer may not align perfectly with the bottom layer.

Bottom Line

A smaller scratch-off map that fits in its included 12.7-inch travel tube.

Pros

If you plan on taking your map with you or if you just want something smaller, this is your best bet. A simpler map that still looks great. 16.5 x 11.7 inches.

Cons

The small design makes it difficult to scratch off smaller countries.

Bottom Line

A good choice for travelers who plan on visiting all 50 U.S, states.

Pros

This U.S.-only map stands out for its gift tube, scratch tools, pins, and other goodies. It has a higher price tag, but there's a lot in the tube for U.S. travelers. This map doesn't scratch too easily, like some competitors. Glossy, 18.5 x 26.77-inch poster reveals a colorful map.

Cons

It can be difficult to scratch off the foil.
