cheap but jerky

Pros:- they're cheap, and you get two of them- they actually point to the North- great idea- nice keychain addition
Cons:- build problems, the movement is jerky (see video). it seems that that the balast which makes the arrows be always at the top is getting stuck with the casing all the time.- because of the above (which is annoying in itself), you also need to move it carefully around and give it slight nudges so you can be sure it hasn't stuck and that it actually points north
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline:still nice and fun, especially for that price. But I'd gladly pay double for one if it didn't get stuck all the time.

Worth the money

Pros:Both seem to work.Unlike with many compasses available on this site, the arrow actually points to north instead of south.
Cons:Doesn't always rotate too smoothly, sometimes needs to be shaken a bit before it points to right direction.
Other Thoughts:Looks good enough for the price, no idea how well will it last, especially if you keep it f.ex. in pocket with keys (I won't).Nearby metallic objects (including the included keychain) will affect the direction to which the compass points. Not really a con, as I prefer metallic chain rather than f.ex. plastic one. Just need to remember to make sure that the chain is above the ball when checking direction.
Bottomline:Works well enough.
