This is a nice little basic kaleidoscope. It seems sturdy and it has a pretty variety of designs. I like the floral design of it, too.

It’s a cute design and all but the kaleidoscope part are strings and randomly little flowers so after a while, while it does randomize, it’s like you have to shake it to get a totally new kaleidoscopic image. It’s created nicely but that part makes it feel so cheap. In addition to the weird keyhole you look into.

I bought this as a birthday gift for a coworker, who likes to watercolor and do other artsy projects. She was surprised to receive a kaleidoscope but loves it. She finds it relaxing just to watch the patterns slowly develop. I looked through it and loved the colors. I showed her how I took a photo through the keyhole viewer thus preserving the design. Great if the user wants to see color schemes and get ideas for designs and patterns. Young children probably would not care for it, generally having a short attention span. Very pretty scope, easy to handle. As a side note, my coworker's daughter's boyfriend also gave my coworker a kaleidoscope (coincidence). These are inexpensive, very enjoyable gifts that can lead to greater things.

An very attractively decorated, if unusual kaleidoscope.It is unusual for two reasons. One, it is an oval tube rather than round, which is what you might expect.Two, the objects that create the kaleidoscopic images are contained in a oily, viscous liquid and are visibly incorporated in the kaleidoscope design.In a normal kaleidoscope you usually turn the end section or shake the kaleidoscope and the patterns change immediately.In this example the patterns change slowly, mysteriously and somewhat hypnotically.For this reason it is probably not suitable for younger children who may lack the patience to wait for the effects to happen.Adults will love it though as it takes the memories and nostalgia of childhood kaleidoscopes to another level.I bought it for my wife who wanted a kaleidoscope and she loves it. I have to say it's fascinating and it looks good as an object in itself.

Bought for my late mother she didn’t get to use for long but it’s quite simply the best kaleidoscope she or I have ever seen.Fab patterns that have a movie like quality also great in low light due to the open end design.

I bought this for my wife who has always had a yen for a good Kaleidoscope. When she opened it it's shape came as a bit of a shock as from the photo it looks like a conventional round cylinder with a rotating turret at one end. In fact it is a rounded triangular sort of shape with no turret. The bit that looks like a turret is in fact the housing where the elements that make up the patterns are housed. They appear to be bits of plastic floating in some sort of liquid - maybe glycerine or oil of some sort. When held up to a good source of light the whole body of the 'scope is rotated to change the patterns. These alter quite slowly and the effect is quite pleasing. So after the initial shock it was a surprise that the device works very well.

This thing is addictive! Every turn, slight or large, creates a new design with vibrant colors. Sometimes it looks like florals, sometimes stars, mandalas, and sometimes there are sub-shapes to be found, like butterflies or hearts. Because the ribbons, braids, dried flower/leaf, and multicolored glass-type beads are suspended in water, it gives it a 3-D appearance as the design settles and the 'front" of the design has the back-layer coming into focus, behind it. Because the beads are fairly large and iridescent, the colors blend to create new colors, adding deep blues, purples, greens, oranges that are not actually represented by the beads that are present. I have toyed with it to move the beads to different locations at the point of viewing, which changes the color scheme of the designs, which I like doing. Sometimes the designs are simple and sometimes they are very complex. This product seems very sturdy and solid in the hand. It is built to last. I am very happy with this purchase.

A pretty nice kaleidoscope. You have to rotate the entire unit in order to make the elements change. Since they float in a viscous liquid, you can turn the scope and then watch as the elements slowly float around and settle. It's like watching little kaleidoscope slow-motion "movies". Once the elements settle, you can just turn the unit slightly and watch the motion again. In other words, you don't have to constantly rotate it. Just one slight change in angle will cause the elements to rearrange in the liquid and you see about 30 seconds worth of beautiful design changes without even rotating it.One star removed because the picture shows gold-tone trim and I got silver. I would have preferred gold. Butterfly picture around the outside of the scope is very grainy, but that doesn't detract from the function of the scope. You can see the graininess if you zoom in on the picture. Not a deal-breaker by any meansThis scope is far better than the kind with dry bits of plastic where you turn the ring to change the shapes. This one is filled with interesting items, including what looks like dried flowers, and the designs that it yields are very beautiful.The scope is not round, but rather is elliptical. What is viewed inside is round, however. Overall, a very good scope for the money. I recommend it.

Based on the one previous review, I went ahead and purchased it as a Christmas gift. I received the gold rimmed one. I don't find the photo to be particularly "grainy" though; I think that affect is just from the slight texture of the kaleidoscope. Everything about this kaleidoscope is great, in my opinion. Most amazing, and most important, are the images inside. I would have never imagined that the few colorful bits of ribbon, dried flowers, cellophane, and braided string inside could produce such amazing designs! And they aren't just your "run-of-the-mill" designs either... they are complex and multi-dimensional. This isn't the plastic kaleidoscope we played with in the 1960s... this is a product that can compete with the video games and DVDs that kids are bombarded with today. At least I like to think that it is... we'll see!

Of course nature wins with her lovely Diatoms.I never realized the huge following Kaleidoscopes had in America.Where prices go from a few Dollars to many 1,000s of dollars.They are always nice to look through,as most of us at some time in our lives have done.A beautifull and ajunct to any desk.And kids love them,As a present this one is good for the price,as an entry level Kaleidoscope.Well made for a mass produced object.I suppose it's like any thing else, you get what you pay for.I have never looked through an expensive Kaleidoscope,but they do add" a precious seeing to the eye".WS.And with thousands of followers aroud the world, I am not surprised.So if you don't, or can't afford an expensive one try this.It may just be worth a blimp! Recommend for the price.
