Bought this for my 9 year old who’s been obsessed with how things spin and balance ever since a school science day. He had it going within minutes and then spent ages trying to get it to run along the string and balance on one tip of the base. The weight of the metal is lovely, feels like a proper instrument and not a toy. It’s now sitting on his bedroom shelf next to his rock collection and he’s already shown it off to every visitor.

Looks smashing on my desk, the industrial base suits the other bits and bobs I’ve got there. Spins smoothly and keeps going longer than I expected. Knocked one star off only because the finish is a touch fingerprint-prone, so I keep giving it a wipe.

third thing I’ve ordered from here and it’s another good one. Nicely made, decent heft, arrived well wrapped and sooner than I thought. Bit pricey compared with the plastic ones but you can tell the difference. Would’ve liked a slightly longer string to get it started.

bought this for my grandson Alfie who’s nine and he’s barely put it down since the postie dropped it off. He keeps challenging his dad to get it spinning on the string, and the little cheer when it balances on the stand is lovely to hear. Feels properly solid too, not like the flimsy plastic ones.
