Color:Brown(Christmas) Description Turn it on, so it can turn itself off. Ok, so it's a black box, sort of shiny, with a switch on top. But what does the switch do? Does it launch a nuclear attack? Does it terminate someone you don't know somewhere in the world? Does it make bacon magically appear? You stare at it over and over, hour after hour, until you can't take it anymore. You turn it on. And out of the box, a little finger pops out and turns the unit back off. That's all it does, and the smile on your face is proof it works. Presenting, the Useless Box Kit. You'll have your own gleaming acrylic box. Set it on your desk and wait for curiosity to cause victim after victim to turn it on - each to be met with the little finger turning the box back off. The Useless Box Kit - the silliest science kit we've ever fallen in love with. Features Amaze everyone with how technology can do incredibly simple things. Turn the Useless Box on, and it will turn itself off. That's all it does. Oh, and it also makes cool people smile (and scares away the squares). Box made of acrylic panels. Solder not needed and included Batteries: AA Batteries (Not included) Switch and Electronic motor (Included) Package includes 1 x Wooden Turns Itself Off Useless Box Leave Me Alone Assembly Kit Box Perpetual Machine for Geek Gifts or Desk Toys

Dead on arival. Doesn't do anything at all. Also took a month to get.

Do you have that person that has everything and you ...
Do you have that person that has everything and you just don't know what to get them for their birthday or for Christmas? I do. My dad. This product is hysterica. There's no point to it but it gets everybody's attention. Comes fully assembled all you have to do is put batteries in it. My dad had to show it to everybody that came to the house that day. Their reactions ran from dismissive to this absolute hysterical.

Cheap entertainment!
I've had all kinds of fun with this. It sits on my desk at work and generates several smiles and chuckles each week. It is decently made and looks nice. I may switch it over to AA instead of AAA batteries at some point, but they seem to last a decent amount of time so far.

Fun, but has a few design flaws.
So when I initially got it, the little plastic piece I'm pointing at was broken in two, prevent good contact at the relay (The little red piece). So I superglued it together to fix that issue. Second issue was placement of the battery container. It was in such a way that it would kink the entire motor assembly over once more, preventing good contact at the switch. So I moved it as shown. Once this was done it was in full wokring order.Fun product but only giving it three stars due to technical issues.Highly recommend the manufacturers fix these issues.

Amusement for hours
Gave it to a friend as a gift. He leaves it on his coffee table for anyone who visits his apartment. No one can resist the temptation of the switch, and the grind up expression on their faces makes this totally worth the buy.

2 Out of 4 boxes I purhased two didn't work
I ordered one, which didn't work so I returned it and it was promptly replaced with a working one. I then ordered two more as gifts. One worked and one didn't. Different problems between the first non working on and the second. I just threw away the second non-working one and should have learned my lesson. The two working ones are cute and a good novelty gadget.

Truly a worthless box.
It didn't work, The operating mechanism was loose and rattled inside the box, so I hand-tightened the nut on the switch, which secured the works, but it had no effect. Overall the workman ship was mediocre. Cool idea, but I'll try a different vendor.

Best Christmas gift ever.
I purchased as a gift for my brother. He loved it. It was a hit with the whole family. Everyone took their turn sitting and playing with it, just hitting the switch over and over. It was a little hard to get the AA battery in but once it finally squeezed in it was fine.
