World Globe with Illuminated Constellations – 13” Light Up Globe For Kids & Adults – Gist - Compass Included Makes Great Educational Toys, Office Supplies, Teacher Desk Décor, More by Get Life Basics

This globe is a thing of BEAUTY!! I purchased for my grandson for Christmas and I can't peel him away from it. It's eye catching both day and night, crystal clear to read, and of great quality. I highly recommend this product.

Love the details and the constellations!

This globe exceeded our expectations. The colors are very vivid and the constellations show up better with the room lights off. All the states of the USA are listed in the correct location but no state borders. There are borders between USA and Canada and USA and Mexico. The provinces names of Canada are in the correct location but there are no province borders. Major mountain ranges are denoted by separate colors and according to elevations. The continents show country borders along with names of countries and some major cities. The Strait of Hormuz is not identified by name but the Persion Gulf and Gulf of Oman are named. Longitude and Latitude, Arctic Circle in the northern hemisphere , and Antarctic Circle in Southern Hemisphere are marked along with equator and the International Dateline. The overall quality is high, the globe was fully assembled out of the box. Well packaged in double boxes and prompt delivery by the USPS. I would not hesitate to give it as a gift to anyone with a casual interest in “Where in the world would that be?” My husband and I use it to locate historical military battles in the World Wars series and to keep up with political headlines. We also took an Astronomy Course at our local community college and love the night time skies!

This globe is much nicer than another one I purchased. It's sturdy, heavy enough so it doesn't fall over when you spin it, and the light up feature is awesome. The silver stand looks really nice and the globe has a glossy finish.

Love it! Great quality and my kids, and I love the fact that it illuminates the constellations. We use it as a nightlight in our school room. The only thing that I don't like about it is that it does not rotate all ways to where you can easily see Antarctica. It only spins horizontally.

Hmmm. Yes, very happy with the purchase. The globe is absolutely beautiful, larger than many others, and features intense bright colors. It is VERY shiny and attractive. We wanted a globe for our 4-year-old grandson that more-or-less showed the true colors of Earth's landscape features and did NOT show countries or political boundaries. This globe met those needs and more. I wish that it had raised topographical features (mountains), but it doesn't. They would probably get in the way of showing the constellations when the globe is lit which is truly beautiful. (That said, there is a glaring misspelling in the name of the constellation "Capricorn" which is spelled "Capriornus.") I am also tempted to give a four-star review, because there is NO WAY to replace the light if/when it goes out (which, based on other reviews, happens). With that in mind, we are really happy and would recommend this globe to others.

I sent the following email to customer service Customerservice@getlifebasics.com with not so much as a thank you for your business response. Dear customer service, The quality of your world globe is excellent, however I am very disappointed in the functions. I had an illuminated world globe for decades and enjoyed it for many years. I recently purchased (through Amazon) your globe for my daughter as a gift. She lives in another state and when it arrived she said it was good and she liked it. As she was coming to Washington to visit for a few weeks, I decided to buy one for the cabin up here so we could explore together. Once I found out the only illumination is the constellations I was very disappointed. When she arrived she said that her globe had a similar single-function switch. I can't imagine an illuminated globe that does not illuminate the world. Additionally, there is no reference as to what time of year the constellations are positioned on the globe surface. I saw many illuminated globes (most far cheaper), but yours, I felt, had the best detail. I guess a little research would answer the latter question, but the non illuminated earth for the price is very troubling. Not a thrilled customer, Stephen Turner, Evans, Washington.

Son in law and granddaughter love it..

I gave it to my daughter for her birthday, she is 9 years old. She liked it❤ it’s big only in the equatar, it’s a little unstuck, but it’s fixable. The delivery came 6 days earlier. Our whole family liked it❤

My family have been looking for a globe for a while, and after considering some more expensive options, we decided to try this one. The globe itself is beautiful and quite large. It looks great as a display item. Really like the night mode too. Highly recommended.

Fue un regale para una chiquita de 7. Le gusto mucho. Muy bien hecho y exactly a la foto.

Instead of a USB cable and adapter. The product came with 2 USB cables and no adapter. Annoying!

Wow, what a great product. We have bought this for our 5 year old daughter to teach her where all our family is from and for her to get an understanding of the world we live in. The base has a good weight to it so it feels and looks of great quality. The night feature is great and a lovely addition.
