Playlearn Fibre Optic Colour Changing Lamp, Crystal Filled Base - 4 Colours Battery Operated, For Kids, Adults - 13 Inch Mood Novelty Lamp Bedroom or Table Decoration

This fibre optic lamp is of good quality. The optic fibres are soft for baby hands and faces so they're not sharp and prickly. Considering the rough baby handling, only one or two fibres have come off ...so far. The colour changes are awesome if somewhat distracted by the colour changing base. My grandchild loves it and I would recommend this item. It's worth the little extra money for a product that lasts.

The media could not be loaded. Arrived very well packed, comes inside a plastic container, in a cardboard box which was in another box so no risk of damage in transit. It takes 3 AAA batteries which you will need a little screwdriver for to open the battery case, easily done in minutes, there is a button underneath the base so you can turn it on and off as you want.As soon as you take it out of the box the spray of optics is lovey, lot's there and seem's really full in comparison to cheaper versions you. The crystal base is a lovely touch which shines the colour upwards.The colours rotate between blue, red, yellow and green and this is done gradually which is a lovely touch so you almost get a mix of green and yellow together, before the next change.There was no noise from it at all just a gentle change of colour. The base changes colour in the same rotation as the optics. I brought this for my nephew who needs sensory play and this is ideal, there is nothing that can cause harm, the battery case is screwed in place and the optics seem firm and stand up to playing with them. I will take a video of this in the dark and add it to the review so you can see it. Very pleased.

Great gift for a child to use in sensory play. I remember having one as a kid and just loved the colour and feel of the lamp. Will make a great gift especially for kids, lovely lights and base.

Wonderful - highly recommended. I bought this lamp for my 13year old who was having trouble sleeping as she was restless and found it difficult to calm down. Wow is all I've got to say! She has gone from staying awake until 2am to falling asleep within 30 minutes. Thank you so much. The lamp is sturdy, a perfect size for a bedside lamp, uses batteries and they are lasting a while so far. The effect is really lovely, the colours are beautiful and it is really pleasant to gently run your hands across it and see it move. The lamp is steady as the base is heavy enough without it being too heavy. It is the perfect level of brightness. It's very portable as it's powered by batteries. The only thing that could make it better would be if it was possible to set it for an hour for example as my daughter often falls asleep before turning it off.

Really nice product. Colours are lovely and very soothing for sensory seekers. However, it's very expensive and the pieces fall out very easily

Happy

I received this on November 18th and took it out of the packaging and I've left it so it has time for the bristles to spread out. Photo was taken on January 5th and it shows how little they have spread out. It arrived packed in a box with the bristles tied together at the top. The base is clear and had gems in which shine through the light and looks lovely. The light although not pictured is really nice and bright, just brought down by it not spreading out. The wire is a good feature that not many have, saves on battery usage and saves from the light fading as they die. Only downside is how the bristles don't spread out. Still really pretty. Bought it for my 9 month old for sensory play.

Decently made product and well packaged. The problem is the fibre optic strands don't spread out.There just isn't enough strands to make anywhere near the spread in the photo. Measuring across the top it's 5 inches. I had one many years ago and it made almost a complete ball shape. If you place this above eye height, you cannot see the tops of the fibres or the effect. It's ok if placed on a low down table.
