 Great display! Oct 16, 2008
This is a great product and very real depiction of the planets. Great visual in the classroom!

Son loves them! Very big! Feb 22, 2008
My son is almost 4 and loves these. Yes, some of them seem to lose some air at times but we just put some back in and they are fine. They are a great size and do represent the planets pretty accurately (i.e. Jupitor is the biggest planet, the Sun is HUGE, Pluto is the smallest, etc.). I would recommend keeping an eye on the price of these as in the past it has dipped quite low. We actually bought them marked down to 9.99 with free super saver shipping. Would highly recommend!

 Great Idea but needs to be more durable. Jan 18, 2008
My 6 yr. old twins were very excited to receive this for their birthday and get to decorate their room. It was a great tool to use to have a discussion about the planets as we blew them up. (Which took about 1/2 hr using the included foot pump). I appreciated the included booklet for additional information about the planets, but only wish it was a little bit more kid friendly. After we took time to blow them up and then hang them, it was only a few hours later that three of them lost air. Needless to say, despite the fact that they come with patches for fixing them, I wasn't happy to have to do this just after receiving them. Overall a nice toy idea, but a little dissapointed with the lack of sturdyness. - Victoria

 Fun for Boy's Room Jan 18, 2008
We bought this set of planets for our sons' room. They love it. They are bigger than they seem, so get your trusty tape measure out and really look at the dimensions of the sun.

Solar System fun Jan 13, 2008
We bought this for my 5 year old son because he loves the planets and had seen a set at a cousin's birthday party. The birthday party set was from another company that makes party favors etc. When I saw this one at Amazon for such a good price, I grabbed it. It was of a much better quality material than the one from the party favor store and came with the materials needed to hang the planets. It also came with a pump to help inflate each planet which was nice.
We promptly inflated the planets and hung them from my son's bedroom ceiling. He loves them.
