Brainstorm Toys B1700 30 cm Inflatable Globe,

Nice and big for my grand son to see where countries are.

The media could not be loaded.  I wasn’t sure this would last, given it is essentially a glorified balloon come beach ball! However, here I am 3 months in and it’s still in good shape, has survived a bit of rough’n’tumble, and does have a reasonable mount of geographical detail on it too, which is important! It’s a very good size, and the print on it is completely legible. The colours are all vibrant, and it can fulfill educationally to a certain level if required. Bounce and learn my friends, bounce and learn.

Grandson bouncing round the house as I type. Useful toy I think.On our second one, tip, don't allow kid to stab it with scissors.Seriously, this is a faourite toy. That's why I purchased a second one. Already a third is in my basket, I have hidden the scissors.

Very poor value for money. OK for my 4 year old grandson trying to grasp where his cousins live (Canada and NZ) but that's about all. Antactica has a massive blue sea in the middle and ther is no whiteness in the Arctic. Maybe they're predicting 50 years hence! Someone is making a huge profit selling these at £7.50. Only worth half that.

With inflatable globes, one of the problems is the welding of the panels and whether the maps align at the joins. Pleased to say on this globe they match pretty much perfectly with just a few minor inconsistencies.

This product is superior to any of the others I’ve found online, many of which are poorly made, contain inaccuracies/mistakes, or have countries missing. Glad I chose this! Great way to learn names of oceans, continents, countries, capitals and major cities! Little one loves this too. Very happy with this product.

Only wish they could add more of the tiny islands but realise this is difficult to do o scale

I purchased this globe previously but it kept deflating so I thought my son must have punctured it somehow. I couldn't find a leak so I purchased another one, within a few days this too was flat. Two globes which I have had to throw out, waste of money
