Uncle Milton Solar System In My Room Review
The batteries last a long time (if you don't use it too much)
Due to the way the planets are made, they are more realistic-looking than other models (plastic printed planet details are shrink-wrapped over plastic balls)
Model is not to scale (but making them to scale would be very difficult). I wish the wires that the planets were on were a little longer so the planets would be a bit further apart (but we may be able to buy some longer wires and retrofit them).
My 5 year old daughter got this for Christmas and she loves it. She turns it on before bed and enjoys watching the planets go around. It is not too loud.

Huge Disappointment - A. Courie - Freedom's Fortress
This toy is of very poor quality and barely works. The motor that turns the planets isn't very powerful, and often I had to physically give the planets a push to get them started on their orbits. When it does run it is very loud and distracting. And while the sun does light up, it's a very dim light barely brighter than a nightlight -- you have to turn the overhead light off to even tell that it's on.
The planets are on flimsy wires and can fall off easily. It takes a steady and gentle hand to hold the mobile when changing the batteries to keep from knocking all of the planets off.
My 4 year-old loves the planets and was dying to get this, but after only 6 months we've taken it down and he doesn't even miss it. Instead, he's taken the individual planets off of the mobile and plays with those on their own.
Very nice - Barinder P. Manchanda - San Francisco
Great toy and great for kids room too. And they get to learn about planets at the same time.
I just thought that it should have had better and brighter light in it and if it would have been more easier to fix.
Planets are great - Rainhater - Seattle, WA
My grandson who is just turning 6 loves his planets. He has not complained about the sound and I was worried about the quality when I ordered it but I am satisfied with this.
