1 out of 5 stars Great idea. Poor quality.   June 14, 2010
A. Lang
The pump is essentially worthless. It took less time to blow them up manually. The small planets are very misshapen. The shape is more like that of a lemon than a sphere. All but 2 did not hold air more than a day or two. Saturn looks like it has pieces of shoddy, plastic-encased scaffolding hanging off of it. Very disappointing.

We bought this set for our 6-year-old son, whose current obsession is everything having to do with Space. The planets look really cool all hung on the ceiling; we tied the attached string to pushpins that we stuck in the ceiling, except the Sun was too heavy so we had to get a little hook that screwed into the ceiling to hang it on instead. The only downside is that the moon and Mars do not inflate all the way and are not completely round. But I think that bothers me more than my son. It would be cooler, too, if they glowed in the dark. However, with that said this is an awesome set that any Space-lover will, well, love.

We bought this set for our 5,5 yo for Christmas. What a disappointment! The pump stopped working withoin 5 minutes, and Neptune had a huge hole in it (impossible to repair). Other planets can not hold enough air to look like little balls (like on the photo). They look sad...
When I asked my son if it was okay with him to send it back to Amazon, he didn't mind at all. And this is a boy who is CRAZY about Space and Planets...
I personally LOVE Learning Resources company, but this product did not meet our usual expectations. I am sending it back....



4 out of 5 stars it was greater than i expected!! my 5 year old boy just loved it!!   September 24, 2009

we used it as a decoration for my 5 year old boy birthday party, it was outer space theme, he helped us to hang the planets and the sun, he had so much fun!! and then after the party we played with them!!
