This toy is exactly as described. The "Mirage" is just unbelivable. It gets old after ten minutes but for the price it is an awesome toy. It amazes everybody.The frog is a little too big but that is not a problem at all. Even the frog works fine I put a silver metal ring inside it and the effect got even more amazing. light from the window reflected off the metal of the ring inside the Mirascope. And it looked like as if the window light was reflecting off of the mirage of the ring. very awesome effect. I have showed this to a lot of friends and every time I take it out of the box it still amazes me. So I guess It does Not get old!

I agree with other reviews, this can be fragile to handle. The plastic mirror surface essentially cannot get dirty because if you try to clean it it's VERY easy to scratch. Which ruins the effect. (Also the top and bottom came apart in my hands while trying to put it away, but it goes right back together.)The effect is a trip! I would say for the price it's totally worth it for an older/careful child. For a careless or young kid, expect this to not last beyond 1 or 2 uses.

I am buying another one of these because I was so impressed with the first. It's only seven dollars, and for that price, you'd be hard pressed to be able to purchase a floating frog anywhere else!I bought the first one because I remember seeing a miroscope as a kid. This one is kind of small, but considering that your kids are only going to play with it for 120 seconds, it's well worth it.Of course, you could always have your kids write a 120-word essay on it too (if you want to be put in a home after you get senile).I have to agree with others that the frog is kind of big for this device. You'll only get the full effect if viewed from just the precise angle. But put a dime in it instead, and you'll get a fascinating illusion that can be seen from a much larger field of view. It literally looks like a real dime sitting on top of a black saucer. You can try to pick it up, and your fingers go right through it.If you are a science geek like me, this will be some of the best seven bucks you've ever spent.

Be very careful when cleaning the mirror surfaces, they are very easily scratched and I ruined mine by just trying to wipe the accumulated dust off the bottom mirror with a cotton cloth! If you need to clean I would recommend using a can of compressed air, you cannot clean anything that requires wiping as the mirror will scratch and affect will be lost. Does what it says and overall worth the price (less than $10). I would rate it higher if it were a bit larger to accommodate some larger objects and if the base was attached to the bottom mirror piece (the small round bottom is a separate piece), it would also be nice if the top mirror somehow locked onto the bottom mirror (maybe like a quarter turn twist to lock or similar). The frog that comes with it is very small but does look cool floating in the air, you cannot use an object that is much larger than the frog that it comes with. It is cool that you can move your finger through the projected object and it doesn't stop you from seeing parts of the object where your finger is not blocking it (unless you have very large fingers that will block the whole object. You have to view the floating object at about a 45 degree angle, if you are looking from the side or more than a 45 degree angle the object will disappear but I cannot fault the product for that since that is just how the mirror reflection works. It is a neat toy for kids and they will be amazed by the floating object.

This thing is unreal. You won't believe how cool it looks until you see it. The object inside appears as a hologram at the top of the opening, and it looks 3D, has all the colors and shapes, everything. I'm completely sold on the concept, now I'm looking for a bigger, sturdier one - but at this price, this is totally worth it.

It is extremely fun and works well. I stacked 3 quarters in it. You should watch people try to grab the quarters. I would advise NOT to wipe the mirrored surface as it scratches extremely easy

To get the illusion you need to be in a pretty constrained spot (45° angle top down with part of the inside mirror visible through the small hole) but... The effect is extremely good. Jaw dropping.Very good price for the result but also very sensible mirror surface (prone to scratching).

It's pretty cool, it's fun with science.great way to get a young mind interested in how things work and also how some illustrations can be created.

El artÃculo llegó en buenas condiciones. Algunos han reportado rayones que afectan la ilusión, pero no es mi caso.La ilusión óptica es excelente, salvo por dos detalles:1.- Se requiere cierto ángulo para verla, aún asà es perfecta. Si lo ves desde un ángulo superior a unos 45°, ya no funciona.2.- Lo compré como exhibidor de una figurita de Lego, pero no permite objetos superiores a 1.5cm. Ni siquiera acostada cabe.Aún asà lo conservo por que objetos pequeños como joyerÃa (anillos, aretes) o pequeñas figuras sà se ven bastante simpáticas.El juguete fue la sensación incluso entre adultos.
