3-D Solar System Review
I bought this set for by sons' room and they really enjoyed helping put up the stars and telling me where to put the planets! I arranged the planets around the light (SUN) in the center of the ceiling so planets farther away are not quite as bright but still glow. The star stickers are quite small and thin so I did order another set of better quality stars to go along with the set but these smaller stars add to the experience. Overall we all really enjoy it! Great for solar theme bedroom decorations, as well as educational! My older son (10) was telling my younger son (5) the names and facts about each planet as we were hanging them.

Very cool - Angie - Florida
These planets light up in the dark and came with a pen light that you can make them glow if you have insufficient light. My husband and I had to sort through them to figure out what planets were which ones so it might have been nice to have had them labeled underneath their packaging. Also, the fishing line is somewhat difficult to loop for hanging. Other than that, we love the planets that hang from a star from the ceiling.
Spherical-shaped, plastic "Easter eggs"...but they do the job - Scolemann - Little Rock, AR United States
Overall, the planets are very bright and the scale of each seems to be accurate. Jupiter is about the size of a large grapefruit, Uranus and Neptune the size of oranges, Earth a bit smaller than a tennis ball, and Pluto (no longer considered a planet by most, but hey) is a little smaller than a ping pong ball.
The quality of the product, however, is that of plastic Easter eggs and the 3 largest planets assemble as such...snap both pieces together and voila, instant planet. The product's light weight makes for easy hanging, so I am taking the good with the bad. I am satisfied and think the planets will hang nicely from the ceiling with some distance between them and my eyes. (FYI-I purchased an 8 inch golden paper lantern to act as the sun since the kit only contains the planets.) Overall, a decent product for a great price.
My kid likes this - Edwin E. Kang -
It's a good educational toy that can be also used as a night light.
You can make the moon shade change from no moon to full moon either manually or automatically. The light lasts 30 minutes and turns off automatically.
Only negative thing is I'd like to have a switch to make it stay on all night long to use it as a night light when my kid wakes up in the middle of the night. Unfortunately, it turns off after 30 minutes by itself.
