As it hovers in midair, this nifty globe will outfit your environment, bring on some praise, and give your brain a geography review. It's the wondrous world in distinctive, 21st century design.
An exquisite reference globe that will impress upon you the vast beauty of our planet, intrigue you enough to study it, remind you to look up the location you heard about on the news or read about in the morning paper.
In addition to its fascinating ability to float on air with electromagnetic technology, this globe ranks high for its accurate and clearly labeled representation of the world, modern design and attractive sheen of metallic blue & silver colors.
This version is particularly appealing to the sort of "up to the minute" person who finds the new - exciting & fresh. Combining modern technology with contemporary styling, this uniquely designed globe will add valuable stimulation for the intellect and an air of distinction to home, school or office. The fact that it levitates as well, that's just another very cool and praiseworthy asset.
Remarkably precise. This globe has cities, states, provinces, countries, islands, rivers, lakes, seas, oceans, islands, mountain ranges, deserts, equator. No lines to detract from the simple elegance of this eye-catching globe.

Sophisticated and cool levitating globe!

Setting: Office
I bought this levitating globe as a gift for my husband, who has an office but not much in it. We both have always been intrigued by levitating gizmos and he works in the tech industry so I figured this metallic blue one with a silver base would be a great fit.
The globe and stand look very striking, and although both are plastic, they still look every bit as slick as the picture! I have no doubt that they'll prove plenty resilient enough for displaying in his office. The globe itself is fun to toss around and has a little give to it, so I don't worry that it will break or dent if dropped.
Getting it to levitate only took a few tries. It attached to the top magnet and I pulled downwards and you can feel a very abrupt buzzing/humming/vibrating when you hit the sweet spot. I also guided it in from the side. My husband was able to get it his first try.
Spins very easily with just a slight breeze on the edge, and also can be tapped and fiddled with gently without knocking it out of orbit.
Very very nice gadget and I am sorry that I won't get to see and play with it since it'll be at the office with my husband! I might have to buy another one for the living room!!!

Works really well - I was surprised

It's great. It took a couple of practice runs for me to get it to levitate and rotate just the way I wanted, but then it was fine. I'd heard that some of these kinds of globes were very difficult to get to work right, so I was pleasantly surprised at how well this one did exactly what it was supposed to do.
Great Service And Product

This is a stunning addition to my office and captures the attention of almost everyone who walks in. The globe is beautiful, and it is nearly half the price of a similar product I was tempted to buy locally. The globe is at its best when it is gently spinning. My only suggestion for improvement is that it be a little less sensitive to attempts to spin it. Half of the people who admire the globe feel compelled to reach out and touch it to give it a spin, and unless you do it just right, the balance is thrown off. It takes a practiced, steady hand to set the globe back in the center of the magnetic field, something I invariably end up doing myself.

I looked at many levitating globes before buying this one. I think the blue and silver combination is a great sleek look. The person who received this gift loved everything about it. Great Buy!
