Looks smashing on my desk at work and people keep wandering over to have a fiddle with it. Only small niggle is it needs a bit of fine-tuning to get the swing even, but once it settles it runs for ages.

Bought this for my nine-year-old who’s been obsessed with how things move lately. He sat there for a good twenty minutes watching it, then started asking why the energy carries through the balls without the middle ones going anywhere. We ended up looking up Newton’s laws together on the sofa. Brilliant little thing, and it’s now pride of place on his bookshelf.

Nice looking piece but it’s smaller than I expected from the photos. Works fine, just feels a touch dinky for the price. Would’ve been happier if the size was clearer in the listing.

Got this for my grandson’s birthday and his little face lit up. Lovely.
Danielle Frost –
spot on. Ordered on Monday, postie brought it Wednesday. Wrapped it up for my brother-in-law who loves a gadget and he’s had it clacking away on the mantelpiece ever since. Very soothing to watch, bit hypnotic really.
Alice Bennett –
My grandson was utterly chuffed with this kinetic toy! He couldn’t take his eyes off it, watching the pendulum swing back and forth with such fascination. It’s nice to see something educational yet fun enough to keep him engaged.

A cracking piece for any curiosity cabinet. Sits on my desk and it’s mesmerising, watching the pendulum dance due to gravity’s pull. Clever piece of kit for anyone intrigued by physics.
