The worst present I have ever given. We put it in the pavement and it was still so loud. We had to stop tumbling after three days.

I think a crystal growing set is a better gift.

I have one similar to this:

If you want it you can have it. And it really isn't that loud.

The noise is insane. You could put it outside, I suppose, but neighbors might think you're running a loud generator or something and complain to the police. I'm only exaggerating a tiny bit.

Better to buy them some polished rocks at a store.

My son wanted one around that age. I read the reviews and nixed the idea. They are very, loud and take a very long time (think days).

I've always wanted one. You could hide it while it's tumbling so you can't hear it.

I begged my parents for one of these as kid. When I finally got one, the tumbling noise drove them to madness and they hid it from me.
