4.0 out of 5 stars Cool, but a little loud July 8, 2012

Durability: 3.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 3.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   

Bought this as a birthday gift for a young nephew (11) who's gotten interested in the night sky. He liked it and uses it as a nightlight; the only things I don't like are that the plastic half-globe just sits loosely in the top (doesn't snap in or anything), so falls off easily if bumped; also, the motor is a little loud when it's spinning, which makes it difficult to hear the narration. But, for the price, it's still an attractive, fun, and educational toy.
