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.
Pros: The globe has a lot of detail, specifically it has the US states. Which is a feature that is not easy to find for mid priced globes. The size is good, so the different regions are relatively easy to recognize, no need for magnifying glass. There are also raised areas to represent mountainous regions which is pretty cool.
Con: The biggest issue is the huge blue band around the center of the globe which goes through several continents. The product picture show the band, so there was no misrepresentation by the seller, I just didn't realize how prominent it would be.

The drawback with this product is the color-coding. For some strange reason, the states in the United States are color-coded as separate countries which is completely confusing for children. It makes the US look like a miniature version of Africa. Ridiculous.
Indeed, the makers have tried to show some countries (some not all!) with their federated states (e.g. Canada and Australia) but in all the other countries they have randomly chosen, unlike the US, they have at least kept the same basic color and simply used different hues (in the case of both Canada and Australia it is purple). Perhaps the most significantly- federated nation on the planet, India, does not have its various states distinguished at all.
In conclusion, decent globe but confusing for kids trying to lean about the political borders of the world.

However, overall this is a great globe ever manufactured by Replogle and which is a US based company.
