UFO Fidget Spinners

The media could not be loaded. I purchased this fidget spinner for myself because I need to keep my hands busy sometimes. I've never owned a fidget spinner before and don't know what to compare it to, so I'll just give you my impressions of this one independently.Firstly, it comes in great packaging with a sleek black box and firm foam insert. It would make a fantastic gift.The spinner itself is solid. It's made of metal, and it's much heavier than I was expecting. The central portion stays stationary and the interior wheel spins. I held it between my middle finger and thumb and spun it gently with my index finger, and it spun for a long time. The action is smooth, and it doesn't make a sound. You can see from the video that it spins easily with negligible force, and it doesn't slow down. I don't know how it works, but I'm guessing dust, lint, and other debris would get into the mechanism and slow it down, so I'm keeping it in the box when not in use.The spinner has been fun to use and looks great. It's my first experience with one, and I'm happy with my purchase, so I can recommend it to you. I didn't find any flaws while using it. 5/5 stars**UPDATE** Customers have asked me how long it spins, so I timed it with my watch's stopwatch by spinning it once and letting it rotate while I held it. It spun so fast that I couldn't see individual blades for 4 minutes and 39 seconds and then came to a complete stop at 5 minutes and 23 seconds.They also mentioned it should to glow in the dark. It didn't glow after being exposed to the normal LED lighting in my home, but I held my iPhone's flashlight up to it for 10 seconds, then turned out all the lights, and it glowed. I've attached a picture of that.

Although this fidget spinner is small, it has a bit of weight to it so it feels like it's well made. It spins very smoothly and is SO quiet. When we spin it on the counter, it keeps going for about four and a half minutes, and when my sweetheart holds it between his fingers it spins for over five minutes... that is WHEN he has the patience to not spin it again in the middle of the first spin and just let it run out on its own. At first I thought this spinner didn't really light up because I kept leaving it in lighted places and nothing happened. However, when I left it in direct sunlight, the four lights on the edges lit up. Five minutes of exposure to full sunlight lasts over an hour and then the lights begin to dim. It's quit pretty when the edges are lit up. I did notice that it also works better if you place the spinner at a slight angle as it charges so that all four edges get direct sunlight, otherwise there is always one edge that is in a slight shadow as it charges so it isn't quite as bright as the other three. Overall, I wouldn't buy this spinner necessarily for the light up feature, although it is pretty; however, the smoothness and quietness definitely makes it worthwhile and it's a nice looking spinner even without the light!Photo 1 shows how the sides of the spinner look when they are not charged by sunlight, photo 2 shows how they look after they are charged. You don't get the full affect from these photos. Actually they look gray when not charged, and a turquoise color after they are charged.

This is a great quality spinner. This is a very well made spinner that is made of nice, weighty metal. Mine came with an extra ball bearing cartridge and a little tool to replace one if necessary. It spins a long time due to the excellent weight distribution, but is very quiet. It spins well both on a flat surface or in your hand. The 8 luminous markers around the outside glow well when held under a light source long enough. And best of all, the quality manufacturing of this means there are no sharp edges that are on other similar spinners. This was an excellent purchase.

The claims of 5-10 minute spin time is accurate. I've gotten 5mins 6 mins and even 7mins on timing the spins. There is a slight noise on the bearings when you initially start but it is very quiet. The machining and manufacturing isn't precise. The red center is slightly offcenter/ not precision fit to the Grey outer rim. There is a slight gap. Even with the set screw tighten down there is still slight wiggle on the outer part if that makes sense. Glow in the dark does work. I don't have a I've light but I used a flashlight and sunlight to charge. The copy I received, some of the glow in the dark material was not manufactured right. (picture shown it's like half filled). Overall it's a great spinner but like others I received defects. I found similar products elsewhere.Bonus tip: I know it's just a fidget spinner but if you have blue thread locker that helps prevent the center piece from becoming unscrewed just from normal use. Very carefully apply the threas locker to the center screw threads.
