I purchased this novel item because I like the concept of the floating globe. From initial observations, the kit comes pretty well packaged. However, upon opening my copy, I discovered that the plastic interior "star shaped piece" was broken. I'm not sure what the piece is used for exactly, but the globe still rotates just fine without it. I never bothered to return it since it seems to be of little importance or value. Still I think that everything should arrive intact. Then, about a week later, one of the LED lights went out. Okay, so obviously the best materials were not used to construct this thing and it shows. I would have preferred that the globe was joined seamlessly at the equator, yet that is not the case. Also, the globe itself is made out of a really cheap feeling plastic, and the relief appears to be a sticker rather than being painted on. I do understand the need to make it lightweight in order to have it float effectively, but that doesn't mean it has to look cheap. It's very easy to get finger prints on the mirrored base, so you might find yourself polishing it every now and then. The magnet in the interior of the globe can be removed, and it floats and rotates just fine on its own. However, you're supposed to be able to place small objects on the magnet for alternate display options. Let's just say some things work well, while others don't. You might get a little frustrated trying to find that "sweet spot" to balance certain objects on it. It was fun for a few minutes and then I just ended up putting it back inside the globe. I must warn you if you intend to display this in your office or cubicle at work. People can't seem to keep their hands off this thing. They tend to let the globe slam down onto the base when trying to reestablish the magnetic balance to keep the globe floating. If you're one of those people who do not like other people touching your stuff, you should either a) put up a small sign that reads "HANDS OFF" or b) not bother with purchasing this at all. Trust me when I say that people will still mess with it when you're not at your desk. Fingerprints on the mirrored base is usually a pretty good indicator that someone was messing with your globe while you were away from your desk (probably during one of your extended lunch breaks or while shooting the breeze with Jim at the water cooler). Now is this thing worth the price tag? I don't think so. Knowing what I know now I wouldn't have paid as much as I did for it. $30 bucks is a more reasonable price if you ask me. And if you do pay full price for this thing keep it to yourself. You'll get laughed at for sure if they knew you forked over $90 bucks for this. Just trust me on this one. I will say that it is a great conversation piece and it's cool to look at the small globe seemingly defying gravity as it spins continuously. It also does a good job of spinning at the speed that you set in motion. Fast or slow, it's ultimately up to you. I blow on it gently to get it going and leave it at that. BTW, another indicator that your globe has been messed with in your absence is noticing that it is either spinning faster (or slower), or rotating in the opposite direction that you set in motion. *sigh* That's the price you pay for ownership. You want to piss off your boss? Get everyone in the office to pitch in for one of these things and watch the sparks fly.
