    Pros: I bought it as a gift & have left it laying around the front room, all my guests have had a play with it! the unique way it moves inspires much curiosity, even if you don't get it to hover, spin the gyro & watch as it speeds its self up!

    Cons: Instructions are in pigeon English

    Other: A nice puzzle to have on your coffee table & a unusual gift

    Pros: When you finally get the knack of it you'll be totally amazed

    Cons: The enclosed instructions are in Chinese so you'll have to get the general idea from the outside of the box. Basically its a Levitron/Phenominator and if you Google these you get the idea. Also Youtube have some videos of the same.

    Other: For the price its a great buy

    Pros: Quite interesting design. Good theory.

    Cons: Cheap build quality. The flying disk have a few dents and the outer edge is not round. The silver paint wear off quickly after rolling it under 100 times. Description is helpless. Not able to hover it unless you are a real expert.

    Other: Don't feel this toy worth that much.

    Pros: fun, awesome present

    Cons: looking at the prices of other stuff on this site this actually looks pretty expensive.
    it came with a chpped of bit on the board, not bad, but annoying as i
    gave it as a present.

    Pros: -Pretty study, It doesnt look like it will fall apart.
    -Fun to play and experiment with it
    -Always nice for a gift

    Cons: -Paint of the magnet flying thing comes off quickly
    -You got to have some patient!
    -In every place you have to adjust the weigth and stuff

    Other: Great gift or for yourself to have it standing on youre desk!
    (tip, Use the blue plastic rounds to keep magnet not flying outwards, and use the steel one's for keeping it on a good height, Just experimentate with it!)

    Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)

    Pros: +Good game
    +All you need to make it work

    Cons: -Average to bad quality
    -The paint is coming of on the spinner
    -The balancing of the spinner is weak and you can never achieve perfect stability. Might have to do with the quality of the magnetbase and the spinner.

    Other: Good game, its fun to figure out how to get it levitating and then feel great when it does levitate.

  • cool idea, wish i could use it

    posted by Cdizzle on 03:21:59 G8T 28/08/2010 certificated customer

    Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)

    Pros: really cool idea
    i have seen a gyro like this once before and as far as i can tell this once is of equal quality.
    looks great if you can do it

    Cons: very hard to do, not sure if i just dont have the skill or if this is a bad product (more likely i just dont have the skill
    i have had mine for a week now and still having trouble
    no instructions

    Other: this would be a great product if i could manage to do it
    if you have used one before and know you can do it this may be a great, cheap, hovering gyro

  • Nice magnetic floating spinner!

    posted by Lizarb on 18:17:29 G10T 12/10/2010 certificated customer

    Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)

    Pros: - The magnetic set is very good to spend time and to exercise some hand skills. - It's good for children, being a very interesting stuff to attract them to study the field of Physics. So, teachers can buy it to teach their students. - It works perfectly as it's supposed to.

    Cons: - The build quality is not so good. The paint of spinner didn't keep for long, as it fall down everytime in the floor. - Also, the pieces that make the spinner have broken (just separated) after falling down some times. But, I could fix it by just using a strong glue. - It may take some time to get the spinner floating. But this is part of the entire set, because we need to make a few tests using the plastic and metal pieces in order to change the magnetic base angle and/or the spinner's weight.

    Other: - You won't regret for buying this magnetic spinner! It's worth to buy it.

  • Sci-Fi hand/eye coordination game

    posted by marcelxl on 05:04:10 G11T 10/11/2010 certificated customer

    Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)

    Pros: - It works great - It looks like sci-fi :) - Very amazing when you are playing for the first couple of times - Good for training kids hand/eye coordination.

    Cons: - Build quality is a but cheap / lots of plastic (where you might expect more metal) - I don't know how long the fun will last (but my visitors still like it when they see it for the first time

    Other: Gadget with a high level of coolness. Great fun to play. Hovering is achieved by a magnetic field. This is a useful game for training eye/hand coordination of children and it keeps them away from computer games (for a while) ;-)
