Works perfectly well.

I use this instead of a lamp for my main living room and it gives it a great atmosphere!

Lit up both my own bedroom and living room so well that it made the rest of my family want one, as well as a friend, it’s just so pretty that it helps me look up at and fall asleep to, immediately giving a 5 star

We bought this for my niece’s birthday. In typical IPS fashion the box was delivered on time and nicely crushed (I used to work there) so of course I had to make sure it was working properly. It was and man this thing is cool. If you just plug it in, turn it on and just randomly hit buttons on the remote things will happen but it will seem very limited. The remote is not intuitive. Take 5 minutes and a magnifying glass and read the page that shows the bottoms and what each on does. It is super cool. The aurora feature you can add and subtract certain colors and change the speed of the motion. Shoe and hide the stars. Plays some very nice background sounds and tunes. Bluetooth works great. And the unit feels pretty solid. It’s smaller than expected which I thought was great because it easily fits on a bedside table. It’s not tiny, just smaller than it looked in the sellers pics. It was the perfect gift size.

Okay, so this works and the lights look cool and all. The first impression of the “Elephant” design is that it is odd, IMHO, because I expected a larger size. There are no batteries involved, so expect to plug this in to an energy bank. This was like the size of a softball, and looked more like a tortoise; but what-evs. There are switches on one side next to a button-looking thing which is not a button, but labeled “infrared sensor” with a yellow sticker: This part is for the remote, I guess. The instructions were a bit vague to say the least. I actually had to press all of the buttons to figure out what exactly I they did. It came with a usb charge cable. On the top is the main unit is a central light that produce the colorized “galaxy” waves that move around. Next to it is the small green light labeled “Laser Aperture” that produce the stationary stars. These wave lights and the stars can fade in and out per setting, but so far I found that only the waves can move and change colors. The remote has three red buttons at the top that control whether the device is on, the color waves are on, and the stars are on, respectively. The R,G,B,W buttons are red, green, blue, white controls, respectively. The fast forward, play, and rewind buttons are for music settings. I’ll skip the rest of the buttons as I don’t think this review needs to be any longer than this. Just know that the lower left button allows for music and white noise settings, and the light and timer buttons are self-explanatory. The bottom says made in China and….mentions the FDA… Idk. Anyway, overall: this works, looks good, and is apparently strong enough to work on decently high ceilings. Therefore, this has versatility. Well, as far as it’s application to different-sized rooms, that is. Lastly, this proved to be a fun item for my elementary students during quiet time. Thought I’d mention that point too.

I recently got a large canvas tent and was looking to add some night time mood lighting that was a little more exciting than a lantern. My main requirement was that it had to draw very little power. I’m running everything off battery packs and solar when camping so I didnt want something that would be a power hog, even if it looks pretty.

Luckily this does both. The light show is nothing mind blowing but it is pretty and kinda soothing. Provides just the right amount of light at night to move around the tent. Stars are kinda meh because it’s an obvious repeating pattern but the aurora part is pretty awesome. I didn’t really get this for the speakers but I tried them and they’re of passable quality. Nothing to write home about, but not offensively bad either. The built in ambient sounds are of mixed quality but generally not very good. The campfire one in particular is laughably bad.

However I will excuse how most aspects of this aren’t perfect in that it does work well for what I use it for. As mentioned, this does draw really low power. Only about a watt, even with music running. So it’s possible to run for a really long time even off a small battery pack.
