Thanks for the review.
I was always curious why there were no proper reviews for these products till now.
To the seller, those promo pics can be deceiving

I got my things (Sun jar + ROMANTIC DIY four celestial projection lamp Star )
First off... I did not receive it from Skynet as sent. They forgot to send it out from their office and was asked to collect it from them instead of them sending it again. I only found out when I called them at 5.30pm and I drove trough peak traffic hours to Skynet to pick them up.
When I first saw it over the counter I gasped seeing that the box has been dented in. One corner of the box was smashed in and when I told the Skynet lady about it she said "we got it like that. Check and see first if everything was ok?"
And I proceeded to check things out. Thank goodness everything inside of it was fine.
Though, I have few things to say about the items after getting them.
The sun jar, It's quality is rather poorly controlled. There was melted tape on the jar's cover (which I manage to peel out but does leave a mark), there are small scratches on it and even metal scratch marks from the locker of the jar.
Other than that, it serves it's function and works well.
The "ROMANTIC DIY four celestial projection lamp Star" gave me a shock when I first found out that it came in a flat shaped box. Though as I slowly put piece by piece together I noticed that it was not as easy as i thought it would be.
You'll need to screw in screws into plastic without screw molds, and because of screwing it to much and to get it done rightly my fingers have blisters all over them, not to mention a bubble blister.
Screws provided could be of better quality.
The light filter which is a film joined together by double sided tape won't hold in place for long as double sided tape provide is most definitely not strong enough.
Once I've managed to fix them all together and I excitedly turn off the lights and turn it on. I was very disappointed. I can't say it was expected from such a tiny light bulb provided, but it could only light up about 1.5feet radios of the light unlike what is shown in the pictures provided.
Now I'm thinking of heading to ikea to get a table lamp and use it to replace that tiny light bulb. The flim keeps falling a part, and I'm thinking of gluing them together with superglue.
Overall for the amount of effort put into putting it together, both the sun jar and this "star" thing... seems to me like typical China products.
If you don't mind substitute quality, and would just have these items. Go for it! Otherwise great service from pretty~ who replied my messages fast enough.
