dreadful !!!! March 28, 2008

We bought this for our 9 year old who is space mad, and as avid National Geograhic Readers, which is a great magazine, thought it would be a quality product. BIG mistake. It is complete garbage!! As all other reviewers have mentioned the projected image is blurred. Unless that is, a devoted grandmother (as my son's did) stands on a stepladder with the product in her hands!!! STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT!
Not Fit for the Purpose it is Intended for January 20, 2008

Absolute rip off. Don't buy this. Don't be fooled. National Geographic should be ashamed. Again, same as everyone else. Blurred focus/no focus at all. Totally pointless. Waste of Money.
Embarrassed that I actually fell for such a pile of c**p.
Contacting all companies concerned including consumer protection.
Very Angry.
DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!!!!. IT DOES NOT WORK!!!!!!!!
 Very Disappointing January 6, 2008

I bought this for 12 in a sale, I don't think this is even worth 10! I tryed it out, but the projected images of the stars/constellations were distorted because the ceiling I was projecting it on to wasn't flat enough. Another big problem is that when you press the button to make the stars spin around, you have to listen to quite a long talk about the stars and the sound is quite fuzzy and quiet.
The only good thing about this is the laser used to point out he constellations and the cd provided with it! Definitely one to avoid.
National Geographic should be embarassed to put their name to this product January 3, 2008

We bought this for Xmas. To be honest it is out of focus and so poor that I can't believe that National Geographic dared put their name to the product. The book that comes with it is rubbish. There isn't one feature worth commending apart from the glitzy box whose advertising duped us into buying it.
I can't (great) bear the disappointment. An (ursa) major terrible toy. September 4, 2007

Oh my! How I looked forward to my very own planetarium, a gift from wonderful boyfriend, it was going to be so romantic watching the stars together in the comfort of our bedroom!
However, it was absolute rubbish. The stars would not project with any clarity. The motor to make it spin didn't. And the commentary, for some unknown reason, gave facts about the solar system (unseen from the planetarium) while not passing even the slightest of comment on the stars on show.
The romance was gone, but it did send us to sleep!
Ah, well... tonight will be better, I'm sure!
