 Rating: - Don't waste your money!We bought this as a present for our daughter (Argos £19.99) as she loves the stars and thought that as it doubles a nightlight, it was perfect! How wrong we were! The product itself looks really good on the packaging, but when you handle it, it feels very cheap and lightweight. The "rotating map" is made from thin plastic which in order for the motor to turn has to be placed EXACTLY correctly. It's a bit pointless really as the focus is so bad you can barely read or see the constellations. The best view we managed was when I stood on a chair holding it about 15cm from the ceiling, not what we expected at all. The commentary on the "accompanying soundtrack" is insane, it talks about the planets which on it's own would be interesting, but ... Read More: Rating: - dreadful !!!!We bought this for our 9 year old who is space mad, and as avid National Geograhic Readers, which is a great magazine, thought it would be a quality product. BIG mistake. It is complete garbage!! As all other reviewers have mentioned the projected image is blurred. Unless that is, a devoted grandmother (as my son's did) stands on a stepladder with the product in her hands!!! STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT! Rating: - Not Fit for the Purpose it is Intended forAbsolute rip off. Don't buy this. Don't be fooled. National Geographic should be ashamed. Again, same as everyone else. Blurred focus/no focus at all. Totally pointless. Waste of Money. Embarrassed that I actually fell for such a pile of c**p. Contacting all companies concerned including consumer protection. Very Angry. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!!!!. IT DOES NOT WORK!!!!!!!! Rating:  - Very DisappointingI bought this for £12 in a sale, I don't think this is even worth £10! I tryed it out, but the projected images of the stars/constellations were distorted because the ceiling I was projecting it on to wasn't flat enough. Another big problem is that when you press the button to make the stars spin around, you have to listen to quite a long talk about the stars and the sound is quite fuzzy and quiet. The only good thing about this is the laser used to point out he constellations and the cd provided with it! Definitely one to avoid. Rating: - National Geographic should be embarassed to put their name to this productWe bought this for Xmas. To be honest it is out of focus and so poor that I can't believe that National Geographic dared put their name to the product. The book that comes with it is rubbish. There isn't one feature worth commending apart from the glitzy box whose advertising duped us into buying it. |
