 Awesome and very cool Apr 13, 2011
By Michael Murdock
I've wanted a prizm ever since I was a little kid. Now I'm 40 years old and finally bought one. If you shine a laser into it at a certain angle, the beam projects 360 degrees all at once around the room. It's very cool and I thought my cat was going to have a siezure when I first did this! If you hold the prism up to your eyes and rotate it, you see rainbows in everything around you. It is very cool to play with. I wish I had one when I was a kid, but now I kind of feel like a kid when I play with this thing!

 Mediocre results Feb 26, 2011
By Sliver111
I ordered this prism for my 4 year old daughter. We took it outside and in full sunlight, it will create the rainbow effect, but not as easily as I would like. We had to hold the prism up above the ground and catch the light at just the right angle to get a refracted color pattern. I think a glass prism would probably work better, but then it would also be much more breakable. The instructions say to use a flashlight, but unless your flashlight produces full spectrum light (maybe an old model with an incandescent bulb), I don't think this will show any separated colors.

A thrill to make a rainbow Feb 20, 2009

My preschool grandchildren love rainbows. They're thrilled to make their own with this prism.
 Doesn't work Feb 11, 2012
By RROly
Strange as this will sound, this "prism" doesn't seem to work. I've tried it with a variety of light sources (flashlights, lamps, etc.) and can't get it to show colors. The packaging assures me that it does what prisms do (splits white light into a spectrum), but this just seems like a triangle-shaped piece of plastic. I've held it up to the light from literally every possible angle and...nothing. Not at all the fun toy I expected.
