Value for money
not suitable for an 8 year old, when assembled it was very flimsy and fiddly.

Great fun for 6 year old
Built this with my 6 year old daughter and had great fun, bit fiddly at parts but got it built and was running for 48 hours straight! The fact sheet makes it good fun and educational.

Perfect gift for my solar system enthusiast!

Probably the most affordable orrery model on the market and it offers a good degree of educational value. It takes some careful attention to detail (read instructions thoroughly) to assemble the model properly, and some average model making experience is required to work with the many small parts. That said, it works well enough and should last if you’re careful not to overwind it.Agree with other reviewers–this is not a rugged play thing and needs to be handled delicately.

Super small, despite that doesn’t bother too much. but only allow the planets to rotate 90 degrees, you can’t really see the proportion in ratio between the planets.

My son who is into space absolutely loves it! Alittle tedious to put together but itâs beautiful if you have the patience!
