Goplus 13" Large World Globe with Stand, 720° Rotating Illuminated Globe with LED Lights, Metal Base, Desktop Geographic Globe for Home Office

My granddaughter loves it. Very clear, block letters, lit up from inside. Works as educational tool or just plain nightlight. It's pretty. Sturdy base.

Globes fascinate kids, and adults! This one is really pretty when it is lit up. Great gift, it was a big hit.

Exceeded expectations since purchase two years ago (2022). Larger than most desk-top globes. Excellent labels, easy to read, as detailed as possible in this globe size. +++ LED lighting from inside is perfect for easy reading. Two-axis support hoops for easy viewing of any area on the globe. Just rotate to face you. ++++ Well built and finished.

Great overall product! We ordered 2!

This item was packed very well & arrived safely. It's as described. Smooth surface world globe with legible marking. The base is high polished metal finish. It rotates freely AS LONG as you don't have it plugged in. The USB plug is in a part of the metal circle ring on the bottom & this inhibits complete rotational movement & that makes for a demerit. But its good for general study & reference. Looks really nice lit up, making it an excellent nightlight. Highly recommend.

I bought this for my Grandson for Christmas. He was so excited to plug it in. It sits in his bedroom and also serves as a night light. This will be a great learning tool when he starts learning geography. The fact that it’s lights up makes it easy for him to see the different countries and states.

Got this as a gift for my 7 year old and he was thrilled! He thought it was awesome not being lit up, but it totally blew his mind when we plugged it in. Lol. Its beautiful. I was surprised at how nice it is. A few things to mention: its definitely an elementary school age globe. Its not heavily detailed. There is one spot where the a country is split by the "equator" and at the same time being the area where the globe is put together and the country is split into different colors. Orange above equator and yellow below. Rivers are not labeled. I mean it is for a kid after all. If it falls off a table or onto a hard surface it will probably be pretty damaged. Its not crazy heavy and thick like the old school globes. I love the way it rotates. The colors are really nice. Its exactly as pictured. I got my son a magnifying glass to go with it for 'fun' but you don't really need it to read the globe. Once the light eventually dies on the globe, I doubt you can replace it. Didn't appear to be any obvious way to do that. On the downside, the globe did arrive in a very thin somewhat beat up cardboard box, and the styrofoam surrounding the globe part was thin enough that you could see thru it. (The corner styrofoam piece was thick) I'm glad it didnt get kicked or damaged in any way. My package also got "lost" but ended up arriving. Not sure if it was the sellers fault or not. Overall, I am very happy with it.

Got this for my son and he loves it. Not only does it help during the day, but it is a nice bright night light. You can not spin it while it is being lit up, but that is the only thing. It is easy to read and realistic colors.

We bought this for our 8 year old grandson. He loved it. It is well made and beautiful to look at, especially when the light is on.

I give it 5 stars because my MIL loves the look and size of it. It does the job!

Pour un cadeau a mon Petit Fils

To answer the second question first, I gifted the globe to my niece and her family so that their children can start learning about the countries of the world and where they are in relation to each other on a globe instead of on a flat map. To answer the first question - likes and dislikes, I like the way it can be turned up to better see countries in the southern hemisphere, and it's colourful - appealing to children, especially with the light on. Two things I didn't like about it however are: (1) Some adjacent countries are coloured so similarly that they could be thought to be all one country. (2) Some place names are too far from the place they identify, for example the name "Great Bear Lake" is adjacent to Coronation Gulf instead of Great Bear Lake.

The globe is a great learning tool. However, the product light inside the globe does not work.
