I have really enjoyed this purchase and really do like it. I’ll start with the negatives…Cons: NOT hyper realistic. Even my photo attached is enhanced with the advent of iPhone auto-enhancements (slow shutter speed). The projector light is not bright enough to display broad depth of color from an (anticipated) average distance to ceiling. Many of the slides are not prime content (many of the images leave me wanting something better). *For vaulted or angled ceilings*- the focus will only allow you to focus on a certain area, meaning, I can focus the image on the apex of my angled/vaulted ceilings but it becomes a little fuzzy towards the perimeter (difference of about 18”). This is very expensive when you consider how much the slides cost as well…Pros: The light caliber and “projection quality” is more than enough to produce wonderful images. I love that it is cordless, the charge lasts a while and I can place the projector in the ideal spots without having cords all over. A number of the slides (Pilars of creation, Cosmic Cliffs) display wonderful broad colors. The rotating feature is great, it gives more motion and excitement to the image. Ease of use, it’s simply one tray to put the slide in and one button. Although the majority of the slides I have been uninterested in, the ones that I’ve liked are amazing. Quiet and soundless. Small size makes its easy to handle and place. The images on many of the slides are truly captivating.This is not going to produce an image that plants you in the seat of a home planetarium... But with that being said, I really love it. The image clarity and color is much better than many home projectors I’ve seen and feels like an (amateur) planetarium. I did not have the expectation that this device would be like the crystal clear image of a powerful projector with professional standards, and that is why I give it five stars. It has by far been my favorite home / bed time astronomy projector.Things to consider; the price of the slides are VERY expensive for what you get… With the device purchase you get only two (mediocre) slides and each “extra” variety pack is over $50 for just a handful of more images. Is this worth the $100-200 you will inevitably need to spend to get a proficient use of it? Maybe, definitely not for everyone. Also, you will want to place the projector in the middle of the room and keep the image on one flat surface. It screws up the focusing of the image to have it rotate over multiple walls, and many might find it kind of difficult to find an elevated flat surface smack dab in the middle of their room.

This has been my favorite star projector I've purchased, and I've tried quite a few. I love how quiet this thing is, how slow the rotation is (it's a very relaxing speed) and the fact that you can swap out discs! The choices are gorgeous too, from black skies with just stars, to a rainbow nebula, to sea creatures. How cool is that?? And the quality of the image is fantastic. It lets you adjust the sharpness as well, so if it's a little blurry, just adjust it until it's sharp as a tack! Or, if you like your stars a little fluffy, just adjust it so it's a little more blurry. Whatever floats your boat. It also covers my whole room's ceiling, which I love. I think cost wise too, it's great. I'd rather spend a bit more money on something great, than less money on something I get sick of 3 months in. I've had mine since October of 2024 and I'm still loving it. I plan on getting more discs too to swap out more often; the one fault I think is that the discs can fade over time, especially the super colorful ones, but I think the cost is worth the replacements.

Starting with the good part! It’s great! The image can be adjusted if it’s too blurry, simple process. The projector itself is adjustable too. So you can angle it to point straight up or at other angles, I don’t think it bends below 45 degrees though. Regardless the detail is perfect. It can be used as a decent night light, depending on which disks you bought. Also the light intensity is absolutely perfect! I’m definitely buying more discs too. And the general aesthetic and look, especially while gardening, is immaculate. 8/10 for sure!Now for the “bad”. It’s in quotations because it’s not actually anything bad.It has an adjustable magnifier, which is a plus but it can be moved a little too easily. There’s no micro slots or friction. Because of that, finding the precise position when adjusting the image is a tiny bit annoying (I don’t have surgeon steady hands)If you have a high ceiling with no tall or high up desk/counter, or shelves, this purchase isn’t really for you! Although the resolution is great the magnifying glass or whatever they use to project and expand the small image isn’t all that powerful. If you have a lower or even just above average ceiling then you’ll be fine!I found finding the perfect spot to place and point the projector difficult, not hard just difficult. If it’s up against a wall the ends of the image becomes distorted or blurry. Having it in the middle of my room fixed that problem right up but now it just sits awkwardly in the middle of my room on the floor lol until I buy a desk or nightstand. Not so much bad, more so inconvenient and tacky looking.This part isn’t bad at all, just depends on how you use it, but the battery life isn’t very long. I use to use it as an all night type of aesthetic but it dies after like 2 or 3 uses. Not bad but you’ll find yourself plugging it in a lot if you use it like that. So Instead I just have it on with the convenient 15, 30, or 60 minute timer which solves that problem.The price of the other discs. $50 for a bunch of tiny discs is slightly offensive. Strictly because of the price for size/amount. I love space, I love this product. But it’s funny that I’m procrastinating just to buy more. I want to, and am going to. But only when I’m ready to drop 50 on an item(s) I’m only gonna use for 15 maybe 30 minutes every other night lol (I have more important things to spend $50 on thanks to inflation)Going back to the magnifying of the image. Personally I wish they used something more capable. I use to have a high ceiling, obviously, but the image was always barely acceptable. And of course I didn’t have a choice in the height of my ceiling. However, now that I have a just above average height ceiling the image is way better! But it’s just not quite what it could be. Like I said before, this item needs a good angle, both itself and according to where you have it in the room to point it. Some people have a nightstand, or desk, or shelves or whatever else they could use. But if you’re like me and for some totally understandable and legitimate reason you don’t have any of those things in your room yet, maybe wait before buying. Thats literally the only thing that actually needs improvement In my strict opinion.Again, I will buy more discs, this is a great and cool product, and it’s definitely worth the buy. The “bad” parts were merely warning signs for those in similar situations. Of course I still highly recommend you this product 🖤
