Fun for the children
Although it does not make any difference to the fun the children had with the gyroscope, the design of the gyroscope we received was the one pictured smaller in the promotional display.

vibrates so bad it is useless
I had previously bought at 'older' version of this from another seller and it vibrated so badly it was unusable. I have Prime, so nothing lost, and the same here. this is advertised as "stable and long-lasting rotation, silent and not easy to shake.". It is actually loose on the bearings, so badly out of balance it makes a loud buzzing noise with horrible vibration for the few seconds it actually spins. There seem to be a lot of similar items for sale, and I have now tried one of each model , with the circular frame, and the inward curving frame (this one), despite the pictures showing both forms on this ad. If you want a pleasing toy, steer clear of this one or the many like it if you don't want disappointment. As mentioned, I have Prime, so return was easy and cost me nothing, which is great. I have spent a lot of time researching these toys, lots of them out there at wildly different prices, but they all seem to be from the same source. If you want one for a gift, buy it and try it before disappointing the recipient. At least with Amazon you can return free, and get rapid credit on your account.Update: I received the following response from the seller, but will not be changing my review, as the vibration is not due to a lack of lubrication, it is a basic design flaw, in that the spindle tip is a very thin wire that cannot be set straight within the bearing cup at each end:Hello Mark,Good day! Thanks for your order firstly,we are so sorry that our product let you unhappy.We must have a deep apology to you.We will contact with our supplier to improve it.As you said"makes a loud buzzing noise",we need to explain that it need more oil to lubricate,We don't provide the oil because our customs are strict,the oil is flammable and explosive.Please understand all.Could you please help us remove the negative review?As we know,a negative review will be a big influence in sales.We will improve and avoid similar situations. Please forgive our mistakes.Thank you very much!Wish you a Merry Christmas in advance!Best reagrds,Jack

Good for the price but not as good as it looks
its not well engineered so children have trouble pulling the rope to get it to work

Friction makes this all but worthless.
I am annoyed, what should fascinate children with wonder will just make them think physics is boll...ks.There is so much friction that this Gyroscope will stop before you have a chance to amaze, and certainly for older children to be used as an example of how so many things in the nature work.This is hitting the bin because its just such a terrible aid to sparking the imagination it does more harm than good.
