Inexpensive...sort of feels that way too.
I only received this item yesterday and it was easy to set up. I tried it first without a battery yesterday before setting it up in my classroom. It works well and drew plenty of questions from my middle school students. This is a great item to mesmerize and soothe. I would recommend this for teachers that do not have students that MUST TOUCH. If they can look, then it will be great. I will try to update this post depending on the true durability including battery life.😁

Super fun!
I got this to model the movements of electrons around a nucleus for a student teaching project. It is so cute I've decided to leave it on my desk permanently! It doesn't make a lot of noise while moving and provided just enough of an attention grabber for the lesson!

Nice, but easy mod makes it virtually perpetual.
This is electronically powered. I found drilling a tiny hole and wiring in a 9v power supply not only let's it go 24/7, it actually is a bit more active compared to using a battery. Just use a power supply that can provide enough amperage. (Not hard. Just at least as much as a 9v battery.) This is all based on the 9 volt version I bought.

Great Science Fun - Value
The media could not be loaded. Simply one of the coolest items for the money I have ever bought. Tons of energy from one 9 volt battery and magnet.

Okay for what it is
Makes a little more noise than I was expecting, but it's only noticeable in a quiet environment. A TV program at normal volume is enough to drown out the sound. The battery lasted several non-stop weeks. An on/off switch would have been a great addition. If you want it to stop you either have to take the swinging circle off the cradle or remove the 9 volt battery, which isn't exactly the easiest thing to do. Other than that, it's an okay time-waster.

For the price you pay a good quality product!
For the price you pay it’s a nice quality product. I don’t get those saying it’s overpriced and flimsy. Not at all! Don’t expect from a thing with that price quality of a $KKKKKK art piece duh. For those looking to buy it’s cool, again good quality, bright colors and it does work! At least mine does. You can always return it in case it’s damaged/not working, I guess.
