My cat is very happy with this toy, only issue is that batteries need to be changed quite often

1* bekommt der Artikel von mir, da er ohne Probleme zurückgeschickt werden kann. Für die Funktionsweise, bzw. vielmehr für deren Folgen gibt es null**. Auf dem Gerät kleben immerhin Warnaufkleber und es wird mit Laserklasse 2 ausgewiesen. In solche Laser sollte man bestenfalls nur eine viertel Sekunde hineinblicken. Das Gerät, auf den Boden gestellt und in Funktion gebracht, verleitet Katzen dazu, nicht nur den Point zu verfolgen sondern auch dessen Quelle zu beobachten was heisst: sie starren genau in den Laserspiegel! Das Gerät ist viel zu gefährlich für Katzenaugen, also bitte aus dem Sortiment nehmen! Im Unterschied zu Laserpointern die man so ausrichten und bewegen kann, dass die Katzen genau nicht in den Pointer schauen.

This product is a absolute disaster!!! Personally, I’d give it one star but I gave it 2 simply because it had my son rolling with laughter which was pretty great. The product itself is terrible. The laser is extremely fast, but let’s talk real here. If you think you can just pull it out of the package and turn it on for hours of fun YOU ARE SOOOOO WRONG!! This product completely destroyed my living room in seconds. I put the batteries in and turned it on just to test it out. I had it sitting on the floor and at first it was pretty normal, laser going in circles on the floor as the cats watched and began to get ready to pounce. But then, out of freaking no where, this laser goes straight onto the walls and I’m not talking low, but high on the walls. Before I could react, I had cats crashing into my shelves, knocking off everything, jumping from the back of the couch onto the curtains and ripping down them. I rushed to the laser in a frantic attempt to turn it off, but once I picked it up, the laser is now going all over the place! Now the dog has joined in and it’s just a mess. I finally got the darn thing off, but now I’ve got a ton of stuff to clean up, a broken tv that the dog knocked off the entertainment center, and 3 cats that I’m pretty sure now have permanent brain damage from running into each other repeatedly in their CRAZY attempt to catch this super fast laser 😑. Needless to say, I will not be using this product EVER again.

Ein äußerst simpel gemachtes Ding mit etlichen Konstruktionsfehlern. "Bewegt den Laser in zufälligen Mustern" ist glatt gelogen, der Laser bewegt sich lediglich auf einer Kreisbahn (die je nach Spiegelstellung mehr oder weniger oval wird).Apropos Spiegel - so wie auf dem Produktbild lässt er sich NICHT einstellen (würde dann auch gegen das Gehäuse leuchten). Habe offenbar eine neuere Version, bei der der Spiegel nur wenig bewegt werden kann. Was zugleich bedeutet, daß man irgendwie keinen sinnvollen Aufstellungsort findet... am Boden ist blöd, der Strahl bewegt sich in der Nähe des Gerätes sehr wenig, zugleich könnte die Katze das Gerät umwerfen. Auf einem Tisch müsste der Laser "steiler" einstellbar sein, sonst braucht man eine riesige freie Fläche.Im manuellen Modus noch am ehesten benutzbar, aber dann kauft man sich besser einen klassischen Laserpointer.Das einzige, was ich nicht bestätigen kann, ist das zu laute Geräusch. Ich finde, es läuft relativ leise (so laut wie so ein Motörchen mit Getriebe halt läuft). Aber ein Spiegel, der mit zwei Elektromagneten wirklich zufällig bewegt wird, wäre natürlich viiiel besser.

Is this the best cat toy ever? I think so. And I'm sure the cat thinks so too. It runs for 15 minutes and then turns off which is about perfect (cat starts to tire after 10 minutes and is bored at 15). It provides a laser red dot for your cat to chase around and the movement suitably variable to keep him interested - including pausing for a few seconds to keep him interested. We keep ours on a shelf about a metre off the floor tilted down so that the dot roams about the floor but occasionally up the wall. Well worth the 5 stars the money. I had a slight issue with the first one but a free replacement came very quickly (thank you). When this is off my cat sits on the floor looking up at it. I think he wants me to switch it on but I try to do it only once a day so he doesn't get bored with it. It is a little noisy - sounds a bit like a child's wind up toy.

Wow! This is BRILLIANT!Within one week my cat had got addicted to the pen style laser dot toy and was driving me insane for more of it. But it's boring for hours, holding the button and waving it around! Every time I picked up anything - remote, phone, pen, envelope - he'd start up, frantically looking for the red dot and meowing when it didn't appear. I tried withdrawal therapy for a week in the hope he'd forget it ever existed. No joy.10 mins ago I powered up this wonderful invention and set it up in the hall (because of reviews warning the dot might go high). I can hear the cat leaping around, throwing himself up walls - he seems very content. And it leaves me free to write a review!I'd definitely recommend this toy. Other reviewers have said their cat didn't like it as much as the hand operated one and I can see why - it doesn't do the round and round in circles - but my tactic of refusing to play with that for a week made him wild for any red moving dot!Two very happy customers in this household.
