This is a fun desk top toy / kids' toy. I bought it for my 6-year-old son who enjoys it greatly. Construction is solid and it fascinates both him and grown ups. Only downside is that the liquids flow fast and all the fun is over in less than a minute, whereupon the toy needs to be turned over again.
I bought a couple of other similar toys at the same time whose rounds last rather longer. As a result, my boy prefers them.
All told though, this is pretty and fun.

I bought this from a friend's wish list for her autistic child. I was taken aback at how small it was. For the price, I expected it to be more substantial. These toys are fun, but I have seen them before at discount stores for half the price.

My son is ADHD and I got this for him as a way to wind down when he comes home from school. It's turned out to be relaxing for the whole family - for those of us who need a time out every once in awhile!

I bought this because I used to have a bunch of toys like this as a kid, but I don't know what happened to them. I keep it on my desk; during a busy day, it's relaxing to turn it over, take a small breather, just watch the bubbles flow, and then get back to work.

I am a teacher and I can also see the benefit of allowing students with ADHD or autism to play with one of these as a reward or as a calming device. The colors are bright and the bubble stream probably lasts 30-60 seconds. It's mesmerizing to look at, and when it's over, all you need to do is flip it to start the process over again!

Other reviewers have commented on its small size; comparing this one to the similar bubble toys I had in the past, it's pretty standard (about 5 inches or so). One last thing to note: you may not get a bubbler with the same colors as in the picture. The one I received is green and blue.

Works okay. There's a lot of sediment inside it in the colored liquid. It gets plugged and then i have to shake it to get it working again. Would not recommend.

We've been using this as a small reward for our 3 year old with autism. For example, if he can sit for circle time at school for 2 minutes, he gets to turn it twice. He loves watching it, and it's a great addition to his sensory diet.

I am a social worker. I have this in my office and it is a great distraction for adults and children alike.

Even co-works come into my office and play with it.

For some it is something to fidget with.

For others it is a great tool for helping with mindfulness and paying attention to detail. I am amazed at what people see as they describe the toy and it's movement. The descriptions are often unique and often someone will find a detail that has not been noticed before.

I am 23 years old and I love this little toy. It helps when I have writer's block. When the liquids flow so do my thoughts and it helps to just zone out on something.

Fun for everyone! Withstands even a 3 year old. If it can do that, it can withstand anything.

You should mention it is only about 5-6 inches in length in your ad.
Fortunately it is for an autistic child who has small hands.
