Review: Fantastic reseller who will do everything they can to provide great customer service. - The vortex dome is amazing and mesmerising and will provide great stress relief in times of use. On top of that it is just a nice item to have sat on the side that is expertly crafted and hand made. I did have a slight rubbing or clicking noise on the first one that was delivered but as soon as I contacted the seller they dispatched a replacement item without question and have been amazingly helpful in resolving the problem. Yes it’s a little expensive but partnered with great quality and fantastic customer service what more do you ask for these days.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this really worth $91...? It seems like alot for it.**
A: It’s a neat desktop toy. I’ll play with it twice weekly or so- relaxing

**Q: What are the units on the dimensioned drawing? Why is one dimension marked both 45 and 35?**
A: 3 Answers for you. 1) I think the 35 is from bottom to top of liquid in the dome. The 45 is from bottom to top of dome. 2) they may have different size domes based on availability of supply. 3) it don’t matter. This is an awesome product where the novelty does NOT diminish. It’s fun, and interesting for the whole family. If It’s available I would get one while you can. I have the blue and it is mesmerizing to spin and watch. Highly recommended.

**Q: Does it come in different colors?**
A: Yes, depending on availability.

**Q: Since this doesn't ship from Amazon, is there a guarantee for replacement if it is broken during transit?**
A: I am unsure. But most carriers offer some type of insurance and you can messsge the shipper and request additional coverage.
