  • Super Fun and Mesmerizing — Kids Love It!
Style: Black Pyramid Base
This plasma globe is so much cooler than I expected! The lightning effects are bright and really reactive to touch, and the sound-sensitive mode is a fun bonus — my kids immediately started clapping and talking to see it move. It’s the perfect little STEM-style toy for curious kids, and it also doubles as a unique nightstand or desk decoration. The globe feels sturdy, and the plug-in design means no constant battery changes. Great gift idea and definitely worth it if you want something interactive and eye-catching! ... show more

  • Great Christmas present
Style: Black Pyramid Base
Christmas present for my nephew. It is actually pretty cool. Works and looks just like the ones we used to have when I was growing up. He can just plug it in his room and turn it in or off whenever he needs. Not very heavy either.

  • Awesome room addition
Style: Black Pyramid Base
Bought this for my son for Christmas and he absolutely loves it. The arcs are bright and very reactive to touch. The first one we ordered arrived busted but they replaced it promptly and the product itself is very sturdy but not too heavy. Great value, he was so excited when he found it also had a mode where it pulses based on ambient noise/music. Would recommend. ... show more

  • Looks Nice
Style: White Coil Base
Ordered two and they were both packed well. But, one rattled inside the globe and would not light. I am returning the broken one that looks perfect but obviously suffered from a lack of quality control somewhere. The one that works is really "cool". It is fun to watch and play with the plasma a bit. I think it will make a good Christmas decoration too. ... show more

Great for my science loving 11 year old! He could not wait to open it and get started trying out if he could make a light bulb blink with this plasma ball and YEA is worked!
