Gyroscope | Essential STEM Tools | Classic Physics Science Toy for Kids & Adults | Experiments in Motion, Forces & Gravity | Includes Clear Sphere Stand & Storage Case | Ages 8+

I recently ordered a "precision" gyroscope costing three times as much and was disappointed in the accuracy and duration of the spin. This inexpensive model performs very well for the price with a very long, balanced spin. I would have liked a normal stand and extra winding string but those are quibbles. Buy this one - you won't be disappointed. To be fair, the plastic construction is a concern, and I have not used it long enough to evaluate that issue, but it seems to be solidly constructed. It also is made in China like everything else, but the English/German distributors apparently demand some reasonable level of quality control. I will be buying more for the other kids in my life.

This is a great learning tool for students, whether they are interested in physics or not. It is well worth the purchase.

Great toy to teach about gravity and balance, sometimes the string gets caught in the toy

fun toy

Very good gryoscope, slows down quickly though. It also did not come with the string that it said it would come with. Otherwise, still works and is a cool toy.

Worked great until it fell a few feet onto a carpeted floor. Would not spin freely afterwards. Ended up in the trash. Complete waste of money.

I've bought several gyroscopes for STEM time for my 2nd and 3rd grade students. This model is the best, it is made of quality materials and, so far, has been resilient to drops on desks and floors.

I love giving gyroscopes to kids to play with so they can see and feel how the forces work but have always been frustrated with the cheap metal ones we all had as kids. This is an excellent alternative! It's very well balanced and spins for a very long time. The "hamster ball" as my kids call it is a nice addition as well. You can mount it inside the ball and spin it up and then roll the ball. Of course, due to the gyroscopic effect, the ball will only roll in a perfectly straight line. If you try to roll it 90 degrees off axis, it won't roll at all. I'm very glad to finally have found a good quality gyroscope that is priced at a level you can gift it as a toy.

My son absolutely loves this

Todo mal, el repartidor se lo deja en el vecino sin picar en mi casa y no trae la cuerda pese a que la caja dice que trae cuerda

Excelente

Not a cheap knockoff .. It is lots of fun and works as it should

Amusant pour montrer à mes petits enfants. C'est comme une toupie
