Surprised my daughter with this and her face lit up! She loves watching the patterns form.
Michael Thompson –
Brilliant piece for the living room. only wish the base was a tad sturdier.
Mary Dawson –
My grandson was chuffed with the Sand Pendulum. He couldn’t stop smiling while playing with it.
John Peters –
Bought a few gadgets from here before, this one’s a lovely addition! Although, it does require a bit of a learning curve to get those perfect circles.
Emily Ford –
Loved by everyone who visits, however it can be slightly temperamental if not balanced just right.
Sarah Brown –
Neat gadget! really adds to the decor. Wish it came in different colours though.
James Patel –
Bit smaller than I thought it would be. Does the job but not as striking as I anticipated.
Margaret Hollis –
bought this for my grandson Alfie who’s nine and he hasn’t left it alone since the postie dropped it off. He sat cross-legged on the lounge floor watching the patterns form, then promptly asked if he could make his own ‘spirograph the size of a house’. Spot on, and it’s keeping him away from his tablet too.
Daniel Whitcombe –
Brilliant. Sits on my desk and the swinging sand traces out these lovely looping designs, which change each time depending on how you set it going. Quite hypnotic, and a cracking talking point whenever anyone pops round.
