We've started reading together every evening because our four-year-old asks for the stars before bed. It's a small thing that has quietly reshaped our night.
I bought it for the baby. It ended up on our nightstand instead — we turn it on when we put our phones down for the night. Genuinely one of the nicest things in the house.
We've completely replaced the TV before bed. Baths, books, ORBAX on the ceiling. The room feels calmer and so do we. My partner has already asked when we're getting one for the spare room.
The weight of it in your hand tells you it's been designed rather than assembled. The dials click softly, the projection is warm not harsh, and it just sits on the nightstand looking like something that belongs there.
The head rotates, so we aim the projection at the wall above the cot rather than straight down at the baby. She watches the stars for a few minutes and then she's gone. Best purchase in months.
Bought one for the nursery, then bought a second one for our own bedroom two weeks later. That should tell you everything.
You cannot hear it from bed. That matters more than I expected — the room actually feels still. The Milky Way film is my favourite; we leave it on the timer and it switches itself off long after we're asleep.
We turn it on twenty minutes before bed and read a chapter together underneath it. My daughter is calmer for it. The timer means we don't have to think about switching anything off.
