GearSphere Fidget Toy, 3D Printed Gear Ball Spin Ball Cube Desk Toy, 2024 Gear Sphere Cube Puzzle for Adults Kids, Stress and Anxiety Relaxing Fidget Toy (Iridescence)

This sphere broke and one section fell out within minutes of arriving at our home. It did not operate smoothly and kept jumping cogs causing it to be difficult to manipulate and that was with an adult using it. It wouldn’t last that long with a child using it. I am very disappointed in the quality of this item and will not be ordering any more.

My hubby got this for himself and he puts it at work to help him destress. The design is sleek and modern and feels good in your hand. He said watching it is mesmerizing. It is also a fun puzzle to keep your brain engage. The red and black colors stand out.

Such a bizarre and fun thing. While it's round in one way, it becomes oblong, or even more distorted shapes the more you turn these gears by squeezing or pushing the surfaces.It isn't as shiny or iridescent in person as the photos. The light reflected really shows up more in the photos. I am assuming this is 3D printed? based on the layering that is visible in the smooth areas. It is a little rough on some surfaces. It has a lightly, finely, grooved surface. Anyway, I am fascinated and can't seem to put it down once I've picked it up. Smoosh it and watch the gears turn. Very cool!

I was hopeful for this because my daughter has been clamoring for one of them since seeing it on TikTok.Unfortunately, this one had a piece that popped off immediately, and would not fit permanently back into the place it popped out of. This renders the toy fairly unusable, unless you want to hold the piece in place while transforming it.In addition, the "ball" did not roll smoothly to transform from open to closed. It was very start-and-stop, and doesn't seem to have been deburred after being 3D-printed. Good thing it was for a teenager, because those little plastic burrs can hurt if they poke you just wrong.All around, a fairly disappointing toy. I would not get this item again.

Within 3 minutes of playing with it one of the pieces became significantly more lose than the others and actually started skipping teeth as the gears rotated. The end result is that the original shape can't be achieved again. Returning.

This is larger than I expected when in sphere form (larger than a standard baseball, but smaller than a standard softball) and is stiffer and more difficult to manipulate than expected as well. It has however loosened up a bit after repeated use, and I appreciate that it’s quiet to operate. Hence, I at least don’t have to worry about disturbing anyone while fidgeting with it, but the large size does cause it to draw attention. I do like the engineering and appearance of this item, but I am still on the look-out for a less conspicuous way to fidget.

The media could not be loaded. This gear fidget is a large one, best for two handed use. Like most of these, it starts out more stiff and lose a with use. The rainbow colors are beautiful so it can be visually stimulating as well. I have no complaints.

What I like:The product functions properly and as advertised.The shere appears to have been well-made.I like the color of the sphere and it's pretty cool to watch the mechanical movements.What I don't like:The device was very fascinating at first, but the appeal lost my interest quickly.I'm new to sensory-fidget objects, so... TBH, I didn't really know what to anticipate from this device. At the end of the day, while the internal workings are quite cool to watch and ponder, I literally lost interest in the thing after 10 minutes.I think, for me...my greatest disappointment is simply a matter of the devices tactile "Feel." The plastic material is hard and difficult to grip. I think I'd be more satisfied by fidgeting with something softer, perhaps more like a soft silicone material.While there's nothing "wrong" with the product, it's just not to my liking, so I wouldn't order the item again.
