Illuminated Globe of the World with Wooden Stand, 8'' Vintage World Globe Built in LED Night Light for Kids&Adults' Geography Learning, Decor for Home Office Classroom

It was a wonderful gift for my Dad!

i can remember when I was a kid, I was always fascinated by the Globe sitting on the bookcase in the Geography classroom. I loved looking at each continent, all the countries, and how they related to each other on a global scale.Ever since those days, decades ago, I've longed to have a globe of my own. I know I could never afford a 'scientific' globe like we had in school. Those cost hundreds of dollars, IF you can still find them!I found this 8" globe from JOHWOL quite by mistake. I don't remember what I was shopping for, when I spotted this. (Amazon is good for leading you to other ideas for purchases.) But, after I read a little about it and saw the price, I couldn't resist it.I will admit, I was a little skeptical about it being only 8" in diameter. The globes I saw, back in the day, seemed huge to me. But I was very pleasantly surprised as to how good this one looks and how detailed it is for it's size. 8" is a lot larger than you think, when it comes to something like this.Not only is it detailed enough to see many of the countries on each continent, most of the borders are up to date with the current political boundaries. All of the wording is easy to read. The globe itself is very well made. The stand is very sturdy. All of the colors are bright and clear.My wife and I are planning many intercontinental voyages. It's nice to look at this globe, as we plan, to get a visual on the distances. In one of the pics, I point out where we live. How fun is that?We're very happy with this new addition to our display case and object of learning.

I'm happy to have found a nice, well-made, and accurate world globe. It feels sturdy and the wood base has some weight to it. The size is good for a bookshelf or table, etc. The printed descriptions on the globe are excellent, easy to read, bold writing and normal size writing, all done well. I love it and i feel the price was good for this item.

I love this globe. Nicely detailed. Its a great addition to our room.

Got this as a gift for my grandson and he absolutely loves it the light inside makes it glow and so much easier to read.

I ordered since I thought it is going to be a warm ornament on my desk however they built it with white led which cause more cooler color look like blueish

It was just what I ordered

I like for the night light and colors
