 Awesome suncatcher in cheesy packaging November 30, 2008
I admit. I judged this book by its cover and thought it wasn't going to amount to much.
I was wrong.
In normal light, this isn't all that pretty. On examination you can see laser-etched plastic film in between two clear plastic pieces, encased by a silver frame (which may also be plastic, now that I think about it.) Okay, not all that pretty.
But when you hang it in a window that gets DIRECT sunlight? Oh wow! You have never seen or owned another suncatcher that can produce the quality and volume of rainbows this product does! Long, full rainbow colors radiating the full 360-degrees around. I had this in my office window and at a certain point in the morning sun, the rainbow streaks would cover the length of my office, across the hallway, into the next office, all the way up its far wall. Awesome!!
***WARNING*** Do not try to clean this by immersing it in water or spraying window cleaner on it. There is not a water-tight seal around the frame and when I sprayed window cleaner on it, some of the liquid seeped in between the clear plastic pieces onto the laser-etched film. Although this doesn't interfere with the rainbow prism function, it is unsightly (to me) because it always looks like there is water in between the plastic pieces. It never "dried" and returned to previous appearance. This is why I give this product 4 stars.
All this being said, I am here to purchase this as a Christmas present. Obviously, I would highly recommend this holographic window prism suncatcher.

The reason for my disappointment......... a tape on the glass could not be removed.........the rainbow certainly did not reflect as reflected into the room.
