So small. Like smaller than a school milk carton. The bottoms fall off of all of them which makes them definitionally no longer 3D. The defeated the purpose.

The shapes that came with one part not attached, I just glued them back together myself with crazy glue. And it's all good.

Purchased these geometric solids for my kindergarten class. Some of the shapes (cube, cylinder, pyramid, hemisphere, prism) have tops that come off. They don't pop together well, so the flat surfaces constantly fall off. I used tape to keep them attached. Cheaply made. Unimpressed.

Son pequeñas pero útiles, deben manejarse con cuidado o se pueden romper.

As a teacher, I find these transparent figures priceless when teaching surface area and volume. Students are able to visualize the concepts much more easily that 2 dimensional figures on a page.

Not all of the lids (or whatever they call them) will stay when you put them on the shapes, but if you're not super concerned about that, they're a good set. They seem small to adult hands, but they are a perfect fit for my five year old. I would recommend these under most circumstances, even with the lid flaw.

As an artist, learning perspective is one of the most useful skills to have under your belt. I purchased these for reference and I love them. These geometric solids are perfect for 'drawing through', and also perfect for anthropomorphize and seeing them as a gaggle of cute geometric solids.A few came slightly chipped at the joints where the bottom plane attached, but they aren't going to be moved much so it is not a concern for me. Otherwise, they're sturdy and have survived a couple of drops without damage.

Great little for the price. Homeschooling can be challenging and I was not looking to spend a lot of money on visual aids. This set did the trick. Made from plastic, this set most of the typical shapes. The bottom of the 3D shape pops out, to show the 2D shape. Overall, very pleased with the set.

Great price! Great product! Perfect for teaching 3d shapes. Colour is very vibrant I would love to see them in yellow then a blue but that’s just nip picking. I love the idea of using them as volume as well. The bottoms come out, which is good to also teach 2d and base. Also helps to empty them out faster! Wish we had a pentagonal prism.

The 3d box broke on the edge but it can be glued this is not flimsy. This was meant for third grade and up but u can also represnt this in calculus for volmes. The next advance math be 3d spatial geometry too. On the sphere u could attach a satellite to it. Particularly in cal 2 and 3. Great for spatial thinking too or 3d geometry
