    Gyroscooe

    A very well made and balanced gyroscope. Recommended. Previously, I bought another gyroscope from Amazon and had to return it as the quality was very poor.

    So 5 stars for this product .

    Full marks

    I bought this for my 12 year old grandson. He was very impressed by the build quality and how long it would spin on one string pull. He's had gyroscopes in the past which have performed less well. He liked the variety of uses suggested and has not tired of it. It's more than a toy, it demonstrates some basic laws of physics.

    works well

    Of the toy gyroscopes on the market, I suspect this is one of the better ones, judging by reviews of others. It is quite difficult to spin up sufficiently fast with the thin cord supplied but once done it lasts long enough to demonstrate the properties.
