Advantus 30502 12-Inch Globe with Blue Oceans, Silver-Toned Metal Desktop Base,Full-Meridian

My younger son is a huge geography guy (he's nine). He can literally tell you where almost any country is on the globe. He's savant-like in his geographically-memory. Anyway . . . we purchased this globe for his birthday because it's the same one in one of his teacher's classroom. It's heavy, the seams match up perfectly, it has raised topography, it spins smoothly in every direction, and the colors are appropriately bright. Honestly, it's just a handsome globe. With that said, it's a very practical globe that is meant to be used and is not meant for display in a nice office.

This was a gift and I am very happy with the quality. It is a relief map and it also tilts so you can better see all parts of the globe. The base was heavy enough and it was not flimsy at all.

Compré éste globo como regalo para mi pareja y le encantó, duró alrededor de 2 horas admirando los detalles. Los materiales son de muy buena calidad, los colores contrastan muy bien, la base es algo pesada lo cual te hace confirmar que es rígido y no se va a caer para nada, en lo personal me encantó que el globo gira en cuatro ejes gracias a los dos aros que lo rodean, otro característica que está muy genial es que tiene detalles de relieve sensible al tacto donde están posicionadas las sierras, cerros y montañas de cada país. En general un muy buen producto y gran detalles.Lo recomiendo 100%, está genial.

Brought for a Christmas gift. Great size and quality and detail is at the highest

The undulating surface, an added feature let the user comprehend better.
