What Customers Say About LeapFrog® Explorer Smart Globe:
|
|
This product is great- we've had it for years, but I paid $49 new from Toys -r- Us. I think it sold for about $99 at the time. It is worth about $50- certainly not the $250+ CRAZY.
We also noticed pen problems. It works about 2/3 of the time. It's quite annoying. Otherwise the toy is great fun for a child, and LOTS of fun for an adult as well.
I say it is worth about $50, maybe up to $75 at the most. This is a great toy, but I cannot believe they are trying to sell it for $245. It would have to do a lot more than it does and give you a lot more information about each continent, country, etc for it to be worth even half that much. The main value of it is in helping kids and adults be able to quickly identify and know off the top of their heads where countries and capitals are. I like it, but would not recommend it at the price they are selling it for.
This is my second leapfrog globe, the first for my grandson, and this one for me. I like to keep a globe about, and figured I could use the extra info, the elevations and populations and etc. It's fun.
My kids love this globe.I purchased it when they were in elementary school and they still use it at high school age. They enjoy the timed tests to find counties on the globe. They still compete to see who can do the best.
