Brainstorm Toys E2000 Deep Space Home Planetarium & Projector Nightlight, Multi-Colour

I got this for a little one who is fascinated by the sky to help him falling asleep. This projector has 3 modes: constellations, night sky, and slides projector. I find both the night sky and the constellations modes very relaxing and the little one enjoys hearing me telling stories about the constellations. We are not using the slides at the moment because the little one is still too young to enjoy them, but they are great for sky enthusiasts. I’m very pleased with how silent the rotating mechanism is. This makes it perfect for me to use it to help the little one to relax before sleeping. The only downside I can see is that I wish it had more domes with all constellations, rather than just one. That’s because the one provided is a subset of sky seen from the northern hemisphere and I was hoping to teach my little one to recognise all constellations. Overall, this is a great gift for a sky enthusiast!

easily one of the best things I have bought for my kids (2 and 1). the images are clear on my 12ft ceilings and the images are varied. my eldest usually says "woooow" or shouts "moon" or "Saturn" which is awesome and shows them engaging with the "toy". there is a twist focus for the slide show but not for the stars as it isn't needed. there is a switch to change from slide show at one end to stars on the other end or off. the "stars" end is our favourite as the projector head slowly rotates and the stars rotate around the room. the item is very durable as my kids were treating it like a football and it's still going strong. I'm tight with my money and this was a great buy and definately suitable for babies through to anyone who enjoys space.

Beautiful projections. The stars are our favourites although the nebulas are beautiful to look at, the pictures are sharp and clear and show the colours up very well. The stars cover the entire ceiling and walls when placed in a good spot and this is quite lovely to just sit and watch for a while...very relaxing when reading bedtime stories. My only con is that it must take alot of power (although doesn't appear to) as we have been going through batteries very quickly!

This was bought as a Christmas present for a 7 year old girl and I didn't have high expectations. I was extremely pleased when it arrived and I popped the batteries in ready for Christmas Day. Bearing in mind this is for children, not grown astronomers. I don't think the reviews do it justice. I know she will be over the moon when she gets to use it. I turned it on during the day with the curtains closed and you could clearly see the images and the constellations even on a bobbly ceiling, so I know it's going to be nice and bright during the evening. It would be nice if you could buy extra disks, but there's plenty already there. All in all I'm very happy I chose this one!

Great

I'm giving 3 stars only because I like projector. It's so nice to have pictures on the wall before you go to sleep in the size you choose. Planetarium is bad quality. You cannot recognize single constellation because you cannot see it clearly, it's really poor quality and you cannot deepen your knowledge about the stars - this is what I was hoping for my child. Planetarium is just nice decoraton/lamp for the room.

I bought this as a gift for my nephew and I must say that he is totally satisfied with it. The toy is not flimsy and it's definitely not made from cheap plastic. Projections are quite fun (there are two options of projection - one being random space images like rockets etc., while the second is a rotating space - more specificaly distant stars). Let's just hope that he'll be interested to spend more time with it and not throw it away after several uses. Overall - good product.

I bought this hoping for an accurate projection of the stars for our 2-year-old's bedroom so we could look at the constellations together. This product can't manage that. The images produced by the "planetarium" are unfocussed and blurry. They are also blue for some reason, and the projections revolve thanks to a motor which makes a subtle grinding noise and cannot be turned off. That said, this does an excellent job as a projector for the supplied space slides We project them on the ceiling, lie back, and name the planets. The project is easy to angle and point and feels pretty solid. It's expensive for that, though. Projector: 5/5 Planetarium: 2/5

Not bad quality for the price, wish it had all the planets though, it would be great if you could purchase extra discs of pictures or if it had an automatic shut off

Alors, concernant le produit en lui même: Du tout bon, mon petit neveux est apparemment ravis :) MAIS, car il y'a un mais: Ce produit est d’abord arrivé avec le carton défoncé, et de la poussière sur l'objet en lui même, indiquant que le jouet n'étais pas neuf ! Or il est vendu comme neuf sur la page du produit. J'ai donc renvoyer le produit en question et reçu un autre, neuf cette fois ci, mais ce genre de pratique est franchement limite, surtout quand le Vendeur est... Amazon S.A.R.L.

E' un proiettore di diapositive di bassissima qualità. La sorgente luminosa è fuori centro, la lente ha sporcizia dall'interno. Infine non è previsto l'uso di un alimentatore esterno ma solo delle pile.

I got this as a birthday present for my nine year old nephew. It was a huge hit! He loved it. And the adults do too.

Both our daughters (aged 5 and 2) can switch the device on and off. It is now a necessity to show the stars when going to bed.
