SEGA TOYS Homestar Flux (Satin Black) Home Planetarium Star Projector

Expensive but looks neat and good plastic quality.

The quality of the stars is not as described in the images or the video. It appears they advertise this product using high quality images of the inter-planetary systems, but they are not a reflection of the visuals the product creates. £174 - Waste of Money

I don’t understand the complaints on this item at all! This thing is truly awesome... a little pricey “maybe” but it’s still worth every penny in my eyes. The projection is fantastic, once you get used to the dial and sharping up whatever slide you fancy projecting. Can be deemed a little blurry around the edges at times but with the slow rotation it gives, what isn’t in focus will soon become at some point and in no way does this ruin the image at all. I have it set at the edge of the room doesn’t have to be the middle either, very quiet and the shooting star is a great add. I have the “Earth by day with moon slide locked”. I ask Alexa with the aid of a smart plug to turn it on by voice and with some soothing music BAM! at night your instantly taken into Space.....If you did complain about this item may I suggest party lights or fancy flashing LEDs. If you want something realistic get this.

I bought this as a gift for my mother to help her with her mental health. She is literally the hardest person to buy gifts for and when she seen the price she was not amused at me. Once i hit that on switch I knew then there is no going back. I have never seen her happier. Brings the stars to her and brings the healing and peace to her. Very quiet when set up. Awsome

I know it is advertised as a toy which might indicate that this is just a flimsy plastic box that shines pictures that roughly correspond to objects you might see in the sky - NO - This is a serious piece of kit which projects clear, accurate and spectacular depictions of the real night sky along with a whole range of other astronomy images depending on the discs you get. The rotation of the stars is a speeded up but accurate replica of the real movement. It looks like everything is moving around but if you cast it so that the North Star is shining on a mark on the ceiling, you see it doesn't move. I use it for out reach talks and it is brilliant!

If you watch any youtube vids... it looks like the resolution is really good on this flux version. However, notice that they have the projector very close to the wall. Unfortunately, if you have it on a small table pointing at the ceiling, it loses much of that sharpness which cannot be corrected that much, and just looks... Ok rather than great. Being USB 5v chargeable is useful though, so you can put it anywhere. The effect is nice and different slides a must, but Bottom line... overpriced.

Very good little projector. Not too loud so you can fall asleep with it on. Self timer to turn off after x amount of time is good. It is expensive but also the best on the market in my opinion. Just wish there were more options for discs. It comes with 2 and I bought 4 more but at £22 for 2 discs it’s pricey. I can see us using it an awful lot. Has rotation option so stars move and also shooting star setting. Overall my husband loves it and I ended up giving him it early rather than wait for Christmas

Shocking projection quality, nothing like the videos / pictures and search engine reviews. I’ve seen cheap nightlights with better clarity of stars. They also took £48 off my refund for so called ‘return fee’. Royal Mail doesn’t charge that much for a small box. Images and video were taken ‘focused’ with camera. This is how bad it is! and yes I adjusted the ‘focus’ on the actual projector. Only stars directly above were clear. Rest were blobby smears. Utterly disappointing. Day light robbery. AVOID!!!!!
