Senders Floating Globe with LED Lights C Shape Magnetic Levitation Floating Globe World Map for Desk Decoration (Black-Silver)

I was a little concerned after reading some of the negative reviews saying that the globe did not float, etc., however, that has not been the case for me. I actually found it very easy to float starting with the very first attempt. I used the spacing tool provided the first time but found I didn't even need it after that. If you want the globe to spin, you do have to spin it manually, but it keeps going for quite a while once it is spinning. You have to spin it gently because if you disturb the globe too much, it will stick to the top of the frame and stop floating. The same thing can happen if you jar the unit too much while the globe is floating. I will update this post if anything changes, but based on what I've seen so far, this is a great item.

This was a hit with a teen who even took a photo of it to show her friend

I have no trouble getting the globe to float. The light works well. However, I've had the globe for about 5 months, and I'm noticing a squeaking when the globe is floating. In a quiet room like my home office, it's kind of annoying. I think the upper magnet in the top of the frame must be working loose, or something. Either way, still works great, just a little squeaky now.

I bought this as a gift to my PI. He really liked it, and it decorates his office very well. Need some finesse in putting the ball and making it levitate, but once you get the hang of it, it becomes easy. It has been about a year since purchase and its still functioning well.

Was a gift. They loved it

Smaller than expected as well as it was as floating bouncy as ypu would expectJust meh.

I purchased this for my 35 year old son who works in the tax department and has his own office and desk.once he opened this up and got it "going", he loved it and said it would be a conversation piece in his office.And it was easy to "set up".A wonderful gift for older adults.

The media could not be loaded. I don't normally write reviews but there are so many contradictory reviews on this one I almost didn't buy it. I am glad I listened to the good reviews. I really like the look of it and I do not find the lights to be too bright. The globe does float and spin if you give it a nudge but it does not spin on its own. I can be challenging to get it to float by placing it yourself but it is a piece of cake if you use the the tool they give you. I would definitely recommend this if you want something different than the standard globe on a base.
