The garden in my backyard is stunning! This is an absolutely beautiful picture
5/5

The color is iridescent and very pretty. My garden looks gorgeous with this plant. It is very stable when filled with fine sand, and since it is heavier it is able to stand on a birdbath too. An example of this type of Due to the fact that I live on a bluff, I get some pretty high winds occasionally, so this is more practical than a globe made of glass. Another hickory tree nearby is a favorite among squirrels who eat the nuts and then drop them on the ground as soon as they're done. Sometimes they land on glass globes that I've owned in the past and break The heck should really get to them with this one.

5/5

Despite the fact that I ordered a rainbow gazing ball, I am incredibly pleased with it. My order arrived in 2 days and it's absolutely gorgeous. When my expectations are not only met but also exceeded, it makes me very happy.

This is a huge disappointment
3/5

Some governments provide one or two-year loans to one or two-year enterprises Having read all the stellar reviews, this gazing ball really caught my attention. I had planned for this to be one of the final design flourishes on my revamped site There were landscaped flower beds, and according to most of the reviews, it seemed to be a good job. I read the one you mentioned, and I had a question The reviewers gave me a five-star rating and I thought "maybe my rating will be different. ". Unfortunately, this is not the case. Others have noted that the 'rainbow' is at the top and bottom 10% of the ball (the north and south poles), and the central area of the ball mostly reads as green. It was the seam at the equator that was a deal breaker for me. The light refraction of the waved lines of light that reveal the horizontal seam is a result of its basic nature as a toned mirror, which is perfectly light reflective. I can't believe how obvious it is. Oh well, the search continues, and this one is heading back to the library.

This is not a bad price
4/5

The stainless steel multi-tool is now mine I purchased this 8" colored one in place of a larger silver one that was lost a few years back when our movers misplaced it and failed to deliver it with its silicone-coated base A very tall potter's stand! This one is in a box with a Styrofoam base and a large disk with a hole in it to hold the ball in place. A small box with the same contents came in a larger box from Amazon, with just a little brown paper thrown in by Amazon. It was a good thing that neither box or gazing ball was damaged. There's not much weight to it. It might weight 1 lb, but if there's a strong breeze it'll be blown over. It is because of this that we use silicone caulk to fix them to the In the middle of it there is a small hole (1/8" diameter or so) The photo can be seen here. For those who wish to seal it and float it in their swimming pool, this unit comes with a small tapered rubber bung. The hole could be used to hang the gazing ball by attaching a wire to the middle of a small diameter rod and inserting the rod into the ball through the hole (although you won't be able to take the rod out again if it gets ripped out!). Around the vicinity of a ground seam, we noticed a little evidence of a sub-surface crack. The circumference of the cylinder is one quarter. In the attached photo you can see the distortion caused by this reflection. Despite the seam being invisible, the rest of it was still visible. In the case of a garden ornament, this is not an issue. The seam at the bottom is not possible to hide with the hole at the bottom as it's right around the hole* The colors transform depending on where you view the ball, but if you want a mirror-like finish, you might want to turn this into a sculpture. Polish doesn't have it, and neither does this. It is visible in the photo that the polishing left noticeable scuff marks all over the surface. Thankfully, we had no seams visible on our old ball because it was clear, highly polished and had a mirror finish. With the color, the seams tend to be hidden better, and your eye is drawn to the color, as opposed to the reflection that comes with a clear finish. Overall, this is a good buy for the price point. There's a problem with it, but to get a perfect one would cost more than twice what this ball is.

This is a beautiful, small gazing ball
5/5

The frame is still in its box, so I can't say how it will fare against the elements, but it looks gorgeous to start with! This gazing ball is quite petite (8"), so order a 10" one if you want a larger gazing ball. A beautiful display like this will be a great addition to Because it is stainless steel, hopefully it won't peel or rust due to exposure to the elements. Depending on which side you look at, one side of the mirror is more blue/green, the other more purple. (For some reason, the photos are rotating, and I can't get them My files are not arranged the way this is.

I like the color of this
5/5

The gaze ball is one of my favorite things. As a result of my love for them, I have previously purchased an iridescent glass gazing ball and placed it on its stand. A squirrel knocked it over and it shattered all over my concrete patio within the week. I decided to go with a steel ball because of this reason. On my patio, you can see it. The only way to know is to wait and see.

My expectations were not met due to the poor quality
3/5

Because it arrived with scratches and imperfections, the seam around the circumference was very visible. There was no way for me to wear the item. Additionally, I wonder whether the coating on it will hold up to the elements for any period of time. One of the most exciting purchases I made ended with the biggest letdown for me. In terms of our garden, I expected it to be beautiful and of interest. The product should have come without scratches or seams in the package for the price. It was far more affordable and far more beautiful to install a colorful glass birdbath instead, which is far more durable and looks much prettier as well.
