 great idea, but doesn't work Jan 22, 2007
By mad mom
This looked like a really neat way for our kids to learn more about the solar system. It even comes with a chart to (roughly) align the planets in relation to each other according to time of year. The planetarium feature is a bit dim - I can see the constellations, but can't read the names. Our motor feature doesn't work - the planets do not revolve. We haven't gotten around to sending it back yet. If we get one that works, I would give it a higher rating.

 Very Cute for the Price Sep 16, 2010
By M and C's Mom
My 4 year old wanted glow in the dark planets to hang from the ceiling, but I couldn't find anything I was happy with in this price range. We love this toy and had fun putting it together. With a 4 year old "helping" it took about 5 minutes to assemble, and I had absolutely no problems. After assembly, you'll need a minimum of 30 inches of space for the planets to rotate properly. The planets do not move at different speeds, and some of the planets don't exactly look as they should, i.e. earth is just colored dark blue. You can operate the toy with just the sun lamp (constellation lamp), just the planet rotation, or both together. The motor for the planet rotation is pretty loud. Overall we like it and my 4 year old insists on falling asleep with the constellation lamp turned on.

 Do not buy Feb 20, 2010
By S. E. Ellis
Do not buy. My wife picked this up to teach a lesson for the solar system and shadows. She kept telling me she was having trouble putting in the C sized batteries, so I got home and tried to figure it out myself. They won't fit, at least not with the door closed. I ended up building an AC adapter to work with it for her lesson, but it was very unimpressive. Not something that's going to wow a principal or kids for that matter.
It's got a standard C cell flashlight battery for the sun and it's really dim even when dialed into the recommended settings. Once the lesson was over we resolved to never use it again.

Poor quality, poor detail, planets all rotate at the same speed May 04, 2011
By D. C Smith
Another case of you-get-what-you-pay for. Cheap quality, planets have so little (or so poorly done) detail that you almost can't tell them apart except for Jupiter and Saturn. My son keeps thinking Earth is Neptune. Also, the planets do NOT rotate at different speeds, which in my mind is a terrible "education", so for that alone it deserves 1 star. They all rotate together. All you can do is adjust at what diameter around the run the planet should be in, and that's it! Boring. It's also incredible cheap sounding and borders on "noisy". I did not have problems putting in the C batteries, but for having 4 C batteries I would expect the Sun to be a bit brighter...it's very dim. Overall, I'm very disappointed and will be returning it after I find a better one. If I find something better I will come back and update this post.

A total waste of money Dec 25, 2010
By halniaz
This toy is very cheaply made. It uses C bateries but not indicated anywhere in the box ormanuals. The sun is made of two piece cheap plastic that don't fit together properly, so, one part keeps falling off unless you tape it with clear tape. The planets are outside the range of light so there are no useful shadows. The rotation produces a fairly laud motorized sound. Also the bulb burned in less than an hour and the fact that it came with an extra bulb, does mean that you can expect the second bulb to burn in no time as well. Ultimately, this toy is a lame waste of money, a good idea with lausy production from China that really belong to the shelves of a "DOLAR STORE".
