Works great but more of a cast iron look, could be finished better but then it would cost more and it's not gold Color, hyped picture

Great classic

I remembered this miracle from when my physicist father showed it to me -- such fun sharing it with grandchildren!

So quick, great safe packing, total hit! Gave all to adult 'kids' -- whose spouses had never been exposed to these as children.

I grew up with these and so did my sons. Now it's my grandsons turn. They are an excellent learning toy for both boys and girls.. They put your imagination to work..

An Old Standard
Alfred Dimes from USA, Georgia, Atlanta
Got this for my two year old Granddaughter. She can not use it but she loves to watch it in action. I remember this from my childhood. I am still as fascinated now as I was then when I spin this thing up.

Michele from Louisville, KY
It's heavy duty and spins for a long time. Takes a couple of trys to get the hang of pulling the string but it is fun.
