I was particularly impressed with the quality and forethought of the internal packaging in the shipping box. The globe is securely held in place to prevent movement and damage. The internal packaging will also protect the globe from a good measure of rough handling in shipment. With this much concern to insure the globe arrives in good condition, I am further impressed with the over-all dedication of Replogle in producing a quality product.
I am very well pleased with the features of the globe and the high quality of construction. It is a convenient size for a desk and of course it is easily moved about.
That being said, this globe is not of high quality construction. It will be durable enough for adults, but I wouldn't bring it to my classroom as I fear the stand or brace would break quickly. One thing that annoys me is there is a piece of tape that goes around the equator and the tape does not stick down all the way around. I would remove it, but I think that may be what is holding the hemispheres together.
