This floating globe is absolutely amazing, but you need to have patience when setting it up.
I love that this globe uses reverse magnetism to hold it aloft.
However it does more then just float above the stand. First of all when this
arrives you are going to require a completely flat area, and it can’t be on a
surface that shakes easily. If the base shakes the globe will fall and slam to
the base hard.
When you go
to set the globe over the base you are going to have to do it in a couple steps.
First you need to plug the base in of course, and turn it on with the button on
the bottom. After you do that touch the power button on the front, this is the
globe light. It is easier to know when the globe is in the right area with the
power to it on. This is because the globe only lights up when held in the right
area, and at the right height. When holding it over the base cup it with both
hands, because it is going to be pulled very strongly towards the edges. With
the globe cupped move it forward, back, left, and right. In doing this you will
feel the pull, but you will also feel the spot in the center where the force lets go.
This is the spot where you are going to let go. However you need to wait until
you actually start to feel it lift off your hands. If you don’t the pull from
the sides is so strong it will suck it over.
Once you get
it in place the first time it gets easier to do. When the globe is floating on
it’s own it is an amazing sight. The globe glows brightly, but not too bright.
It also spins just like earth does, and it goes at a good pace. It’s not so
slow you get board and not so fast that you can’t see anything. The part that
amazes me though is that you can actually touch it. You can still stop it and look at certain
places, and you can give it a little spin and stop it again to look at the next
one. However if you tap it or touch it too hard it knocks off balance and slams
to the side, Trust me my son did it.
This is a
great conversation piece to keep on a shelf or the mantel. It is also a great
way to get your children interested in geography. My older children love to
look at things on this globe it just makes it so much more fun. If they can’t
find it with the globe floating they can simply pick it up and role it in their
hands until they do. This is great hands on learning and has so much more of
and impact then a book or poster map does.
This Levitating
globe is something that every home and family could benefit from having, both
decoratively and informatively.
