I bought this as a nostalgic hark back to my childhood and so my opinion may be biased, but these are fantastic. The images are amazing and mesmorising for any child to look a
This is a brilliant little toy. IGNORE the reviews that say you can’t focus it – just turn the front end of the torch. Yes, getting the discs in is a little fiddly, but my 4-year-old has got the hang of it with a bit of coaching. He loves the stars and has really enjoyed sitting in the dark in his room shining this at the ceiling!
The only down side is that it isn’t easy to turn the reel into a new image without knocking the reel out of position. It is only held in place loosely. See video. I would still recommend it for space loving kids – although they’d need help if they were under about 4 or five I imagine.
Bought for space mad three year olds. It’s very small and the image discs are tiny. It’s difficult to insert the discs too. The images are interesting but the children need help to fix the focus and change the discs.
Bought this for my grandson after reading reviews, was unsure after reading a couple of disappointing comments. Was initially disappointed until my daughter found out that you could change the focus by turning the lens at the front, as he had been given one by someone else. This brought everything into sharp focus at any distance. My grandson loves it as he has two of them now. Great little product.
Santa present and its a great hit with our 5yr old. very easy to use, alot of different solar images but wish there was some way to get it to focus as they were very blurry
My little one loves this projector, it’s tricky for little fingers to change the images so I do it for him but it entertains him for ages. I love that you can focus the images depending on size and distance to the surface, making the images pretty clear and educational. Would recommend it.
Easy for my 3yr old grandson to use. Admittingly he is obsessed with space and planets. Pictures are clearer than I thought and he found them facinating. I thought the torch would have been bigger but the quality is great for the money and it’s sturdy enough for little people.
Absolutely love this toy. It’s a brilliant thing to play with and open up discussion, only given 4 stars because of quality issues, can be fiddly to load the disc – it only goes in one way around – and it’s not indicated (for smaller ppl) how to do this. Also the names of the photographs are on the packaging meaning you need to keep that to cross ref the images. Be great if the image names were also on the slides.
Looks a bit cheap and small. Wife said is that it! But kids loved playing with it at night time and give a goo clear picture for the size of it. Ideal as as stocking filler but thats about i
We also have the cute animals one, but surprisingly the space one is the only one they want to play with. Both sets are excellent.
The torches fit well into small hands. The wee ones need some help at times, if they put the disks in the wrong way and can’t get them out again (not a biggie). Bear in mind, You need to twist the top part of the torch in order to get the pictures in focus, otherwise you will think you have a broken product.
Good buy.
This was bought as an additional gift for a 5 year old’s birthday, he couldn’t wait until it got dark to try it out. Quite sturdy for the price although not sure how long the viewing discs will last, the fact it came complete with batteries was a bonus. Would make a good stocking filler.
Great. Grandchildren loved them (got one of each torch – Space, Dinosaurs and Zoo Animals for my three little treasures, got one of each….?). They won’t go to bed without them. I suspect their parents may resort to hiding them (torches, not kids) as bedtime takes longer and longer! Could do with being able to buy extra discs as they will soon get bored of the three supplied and swapping with each other still only gets nine picture wheels. Easy to use even for little fingers and the batteries seem to last a long while even with forgetful children.
