Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I honestly wanted this thing as a sort of chill-out gentle light show for a bedroom. What you probably would want to know most of all is if it works. Yes, it does. Oh, boy, it does. Seriously, that is one impressive light show in one tiny capsule. A few things of note: - It's cool. Really cool. Put on some gentle piano or music of choice to go along with this and enjoy the (light) show. My personal favorite is smooth jazz, but classical works very nicely, too. It's got higher-intensity settings if you just want to rave out. - While you can use this for nothing more than personal use if you're like me and to have a nice pad for people, I can see this being used for social gatherings with the aforementioned music of choice. You'll probably want the remote version in that case, though, because this thing has a one-hour timer on it in case you fall asleep. - It is one seriously small capsule (like barely six inches in diameter, iirc), but it has a big freaking output. It's downright striking, considering it works off a 1W USB power cord (a convenient AC adapter is included, but any USB power supply will do). You can plug this into any computer and boom, you're good to go. - There is a variety of color and intensity settings, depending on the mood. It can be super-gentle or have an almost strobe-like effect, if you want. It's not infinitely customizable, sadly, and they are pre-programmed sets, but they're definitely good enough for me in terms of variety and personalization. - It kinda feels like the dome stays on for a kid's room, and you pop the lid (i.e., take the dome part off) when the adults are around. The dome softens the lights and effects quite a bit to give it a much more gentle feeling. Take the dome off, and it's much more a show. Kinda neat, either way. - I do feel it necessary to point out that this would almost certainly be an exceptional hit if one was intoxicated in pretty much any way. - I also can't help but feel like it'd be a fun thing if you had a girl hanging out with you in your room. It's a little hard to explain, but it's got a vibe to it that makes it feel ideal if you were chilling with your significant other, best friend, or love interest, and having deep conversations late at night, talking about life and love and infinity. Test pending on that.
