Kinetic Energy Sculpture - Original Full Size Version (Metallic / Black)

BEAUTIFUL I’m so glad I purchased it

The price is absurd if you place it in the context of utility because it doesn't really have any. Utility is not the purpose here. This is not an appliance, it is a beautiful piece of kinetic art. It looks great, grabs the attention of guests, and it runs for months on the same set of batteries. I've paid more for paintings that I enjoyed less. If you think this sculpture is a good piece of art, the price will be worth it. If it doesn't suit your tastes, or you don't believe in paying for art, it's not for you. This is, however, my favorite piece of art in my house.

dude this thing has kept me sane during the lockdown. no idea why. i would just stare at this thing for hours and contemplate the meaning of life while it kept me company. the battery life lasts forever and it looks amazing on my desk, its gotten to the point where i do not go a single morning without greeting it "goodmorning" before work. totally worth it, although my coworkers believe i've gone insane.

There's this odd connection to the unpredictability of this sculpture and the stock market. It almost seems to sync perfectly with short term volatility and has led to some seriously considerable moves leading to secured profits. I am by NO means saying this works for everyone, but it definitely helps. I recommend this product.

Love the product but didn't include batteries as stated.

This was one of those items that went in and out of my shopping cart over the course of a month before I finally bought it. As far as motion sculptures go, this one is incredibly captivating in its simplicity. There's not much to it when it comes out of the box and goes on your desk or shelf. Clean lines and nearly silent motion. I've had it for months now, and still find it interesting to watch. I always hope it will get stuck upright, but alas, gravity finds a way. The price point still seems insanely high for what you're getting, but that's true broadly speaking for unique decorations. With the near silent operation and long battery life (still haven't changed the batteries after a couple months) it's clear there's some care involved in its construction.

This is my second one. First one bought back in 2013 or so - lasted 5 years before it gave up. This one, bought in 2018 just died a couple of weeks ago. Not sure what the fault is, it's been running the whole time, never jostled or dropped so no loose wires or anything. I'm guessing the magnet simply runs out of juice, even with new high end batteries it moves for a minute or so when started, then dies. Overall, I love it. Which is why after buying 2 of these 300$ items over the last 7 or so years and feeling cheated, I still have given it a 3 star. Just know that this will fail eventually

This is not a toy! At first I was suprised at the price, but it is well worth it. I bought several other battery operated devices and all ate batteries and destoyed themselves or broke within a few months. This unit operates absolutely SILENTLY and ran on the original 4 AA batteries for well over 6 months. High quality, durable, heavy device. I highly recommend!
