This is a great idea and very cute, but the pictures fall off very easly. I bought this for my husband to have pics of our little boy b/c he works on the road. He can't use it b/c the pictures fall off in his truck. I think this would be great for a desk though.

My dad works out of town so I bought the photo ball for father's day and put all the grandkids pictures in there. They each recorded a message for their Papa. He loved it. He says that whenever he misses the kids, he just presses their pictures and he can hear their voices.

We got this as a Father's Day gift for my husband who recently got a desk job in a new city. Being away from the kids while we sell the house hasn't been fun! This ball is perfect for his desk as it doesn't take up too much space and is attractive. His co workers have fun making it talk and I recorded each for the kids saying something different to Daddy while he's away. The only concern I had was that it rattles inside when moved, I was worried it had a broken part, but it worked great!

I bought this as a Father's Day gift for my husband and recorded our son's voice on it. I like the fact that you can record several different messages to coincide with particular pictures.

Reviews and Ratings - Picture Frames - Talking Photo Ball By Particular Pat

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
I bought this for my sons' grandparents. I didn't realize that the photos were static. I was looking for something that allowed storage of many photos, as I have seen advertised elsewhere. It looked nice, and would be nice for a grandparent who wasn't technologically savvy. My sons' grandparents love gadgets, though, and will only use it as an occasional ornament. For the price, and the quality of the store, I was hoping for more. I should have read the description more carefully. It would be neat to have multiple pictures of each child, each with his own frame, on one ball.
Reviews and Ratings - Picture Frames - Talking Photo Ball By busy dentist mom with 4 kids
Grandparents LOVED the gift, weak sound
By busy dentist mom with 4 kids from Missouri on 1/11/2008
Pros:
Grandparents loved, Great gift, Sounds last forever
Cons:
'THUNK' sound if turned, Flimsy Construction, Poor sound quality
Describe Yourself:
Quality Oriented
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
I really loved the idea of this. I bought the silver and the "wood" style both. I think the wood style looks much better. I have a tradition of giving recorded Christmas ornaments and thought that the Grandparents could leave this out all year long. They absolutely loved this gift. However, I was disappointed in the sound quality--it sounds scratchy. Also, the "thunk" sound every time it's turned over makes it seem a bit cheap. I'd buy this gift again (and probably will buy more next Christmas), but I wouldn't mind spending a little more and getting better quality.

Novel Gift
By Dana from Washington DC on 1/4/2008
Pros:
Attractive Design, Easy To Use
Cons:
Flimsy Construction
Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
This is a great gift for someone at work. It is a novel gift and can be really fun. The pictures are actually panels that are magnetic and can come off almost too easily when handling the item. This as well as the very thin, and awkwardly shaped plastic panels for the picture insert is of a low quality. Therefore the product looks great and performs well but the construction is a little lacking. if it were any more expensive it would not be worth it.

Got this for mother-in-law. Makes a good gift for grandparents- pictures of kids with their voices recorded. It seems durable but makes a sound like something is loose inside. Good price.

Loved how you could put a different message with each picture. Didn't like that if the battery went dead you lost the messages. The information in the catalogue or with the ball didn't tell what size pictures to use.
