Brainstorm Toys E2000 Deep Space Home Planetarium & Projector Nightlight, Multi-Colour

I got this for a little one who is fascinated by the sky to help him falling asleep. This projector has 3 modes: constellations, night sky, and slides projector. I find both the night sky and the constellations modes very relaxing and the little one enjoys hearing me telling stories about the constellations. We are not using the slides at the moment because the little one is still too young to enjoy them, but they are great for sky enthusiasts. I’m very pleased with how silent the rotating mechanism is. This makes it perfect for me to use it to help the little one to relax before sleeping. The only downside I can see is that I wish it had more domes with all constellations, rather than just one. That’s because the one provided is a subset of sky seen from the northern hemisphere and I was hoping to teach my little one to recognise all constellations. Overall, this is a great gift for a sky enthusiast!

I bought this hoping for an accurate projection of the stars for our 2-year-old's bedroom so we could look at the constellations together. This product can't manage that. The images produced by the "planetarium" are unfocussed and blurry. They are also blue for some reason, and the projections revolve thanks to a motor which makes a subtle grinding noise and cannot be turned off. That said, this does an excellent job as a projector for the supplied space slides We project them on the ceiling, lie back, and name the planets. The project is easy to angle and point and feels pretty solid. It's expensive for that, though. Projector: 5/5 Planetarium: 2/5

I bought this as a gift for my nephew and I must say that he is totally satisfied with it. The toy is not flimsy and it's definitely not made from cheap plastic. Projections are quite fun (there are two options of projection - one being random space images like rockets etc., while the second is a rotating space - more specificaly distant stars). Let's just hope that he'll be interested to spend more time with it and not throw it away after several uses. Overall - good product.

easily one of the best things I have bought for my kids (2 and 1). the images are clear on my 12ft ceilings and the images are varied. my eldest usually says "woooow" or shouts "moon" or "Saturn" which is awesome and shows them engaging with the "toy". there is a twist focus for the slide show but not for the stars as it isn't needed. there is a switch to change from slide show at one end to stars on the other end or off. the "stars" end is our favourite as the projector head slowly rotates and the stars rotate around the room. the item is very durable as my kids were treating it like a football and it's still going strong. I'm tight with my money and this was a great buy and definately suitable for babies through to anyone who enjoys space.

I bought this as a birthday gift for my child. The product is good. She used it for only for two days, after that she lost the interest, even though she watches lots of stuffs on various planets and discuss a lot about pluto and mars.

Great

Nice item and simple to operate. The children love it reflecting on the ceiling despite being only two years old (f) adn three and a half (m). Grandad is teaching them the constellations. Downside is we began with cheap batteries that gave poor light reflecting projection, when more expensive batteries inserted light reflection improved dramatically. It has been a great hit with both children.

This was bought as a Christmas present for a 7 year old girl and I didn't have high expectations. I was extremely pleased when it arrived and I popped the batteries in ready for Christmas Day. Bearing in mind this is for children, not grown astronomers. I don't think the reviews do it justice. I know she will be over the moon when she gets to use it. I turned it on during the day with the curtains closed and you could clearly see the images and the constellations even on a bobbly ceiling, so I know it's going to be nice and bright during the evening. It would be nice if you could buy extra disks, but there's plenty already there. All in all I'm very happy I chose this one!

Not bad quality for the price, wish it had all the planets though, it would be great if you could purchase extra discs of pictures or if it had an automatic shut off

My son is a space nut so this is perfect. As much as he love the planetarium portion he also loves the slides that come with it. We've sat through several planetarium shows that he has put on for us showing us all the different types of galaxy formations. I would say that if you're planning on using this as a night light then be ready to charge batteries at least 1-2 times a week. My son uses this every night and we turn it off when we check on him before we go to bed (around 12-1 am) so it does last for a while. Note: I can't praise Eneloop rechargebale batteries enough. I've been using them for years and can't believe the power consistency. I believe they are rated for like 10,000 recharges and with how much we use them over the past 10 years I have never thrown one out yet. I know they are pricey but after using several different inferior varieties I just can't love them more.

Alors, concernant le produit en lui même: Du tout bon, mon petit neveux est apparemment ravis :) MAIS, car il y'a un mais: Ce produit est d’abord arrivé avec le carton défoncé, et de la poussière sur l'objet en lui même, indiquant que le jouet n'étais pas neuf ! Or il est vendu comme neuf sur la page du produit. J'ai donc renvoyer le produit en question et reçu un autre, neuf cette fois ci, mais ce genre de pratique est franchement limite, surtout quand le Vendeur est... Amazon S.A.R.L.

E' un proiettore di diapositive di bassissima qualità. La sorgente luminosa è fuori centro, la lente ha sporcizia dall'interno. Infine non è previsto l'uso di un alimentatore esterno ma solo delle pile.

Both our daughters (aged 5 and 2) can switch the device on and off. It is now a necessity to show the stars when going to bed.
