Yes, it's small, but this is a terrific little globe that won't take up a lot of space and has bright colors and clear printing. It's pitched as being for kids, but we Americans are notoriously bad at geography and could use a globe. Flat maps are practical, but you don't get as clear a sense of how far apart, for example, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is from Perth, Australia. My greatest concern before buying it was that seams wouldn't match up. That's often the case with globes bought for decoration only. With this, the Northern and Southern hemispheres are a tiny bit off, but that could only be true of a few of them, and it doesn't matter; no one would use this to navigate in a serious way. I'm keeping it in my kitchen and while it's not near my stove, things in kitchens pick up a little grime anyway. I found that I was able to wipe it clean with a microfiber cloth without damaging the glossy finish. I wouldn't advise using liquid on it, but I bet mildly soapy water wouldn't hurt the world. As I write this, America's President Trump is planning to acquire Greenland, by force if necessary. There's (believable) talk that part of his rationale is that he thinks Greenland is as huge as it's incorrectly portrayed on flat maps. (The math of converting a sphere to a plane is daunting, to say the least.)

Colorful and compact size for a table top to demonstrate to students the vast amounts of salt water on earth and where places are on a globe. It spins nicely on the stand. Reasonable price.

This is exactly what I wanted. I am a teacher and I wanted to use it to show the kids where different countries are located. It is not too big and looks nice on my desk. It spins around fine. The base was easy to attach. Nice small globe

I like it from the standpoint that it is small and cute in size, lightweight, beautiful with deep colors accentuating differences in seas, mountain ranges, landmarks etc. around the world. It is great to have for educational purposes and provides useful insight in helping us to understand how we all relate to one another on this gorgeous planet, earth.

This is the perfect size for my 9 year old that loves to look at countries. And the writiing is so clear. Great for the price.

While I understand the price point is low, this product would be more accurately priced at $3 max. It is such low quality. The United States is TINY on the globe, making the States names impossible to see while Africa is HUGE! I bought this to show my 5 year old grandson what the world looks like because he's very inquisitive about countries etc., there's no way I'm giving this to him. If I saw this at a store, I'd laugh and put it back down. Don't waste your money. Sending this back asap.

This is the perfect size for our homeschool room!

A little small, but somewhat usable. I would recommend if people are considering this to go up to at least a 9" globe. I have both sizes and the 9" globe is perfect.
