Is it durable? Not really something to pick up and play with. It is fun and interesting? This is something to set up and view not picked up and turned all around. Also the Frog that came with mine is about as large of object I would use. I recommend it more as a conversation piece than toy.

Amazing product but almost impossible to maintain operative. Reflexing depend of crystal clear surface of the mirror. My grandson touched this surface trying to recover the frog and the image turn to be a ghost. After we washed and wiped with soft tissue (as Instructed) the image remain barely visible. May be can be dry with hot air but we didn't have a second chance.

This is a pretty good toy. It about the size of a saucer plate. It came with a toy frog. This is not glass but a polish plastic material. This toy has been dropped a few time and kicked around the floor by the kids and has held up, how ever I don't think it would withhold standing on it by a child of 50lbs or more, but I can not confirm this at this time. The stand that this sits on is not fixed. This toy should be for kids that are 8+ years old in my opinion. This toy can be dangerous in the hands of kids that are prone to finding ways to hurt themselves or break things. When you take the top off the bottom of the bowl is a parabola and makes a good focal point for the sun. This does and will start a fire ( The big boys went outside to try it, Dad, Uncle, Grandpa). Great for the survival toy, not so much for a window toy in the house. Inside lights have not been able to create the fire effect in my house, as I have tired several times from close up to far away from the light source and from 5watts to 150watts with no luck. As far as the sun, It doesn't take but a few seconds at the right angle and poof you have fire, but don't let that scare you off because, inside, my boys ages 2, 7, and 11 all enjoyed it and was looking for other small toys to place inside to see what else it could make 3-D. But like most toys today, that aren't video games, kids lose interest after about 3 days, but I gained a cool emergency fire starter. I hope my review helps. Read full review

I love it! It did come in three parts that would not click together so I had to glue them together permanently. It was for my Mother and just coming apart. However...It is lots of fun and I do recommend it as a gift or entertainment yourself!
