Commander II Globe

Globes are not out of date. Nice 3D sphere where you can learn stuff about places you didn't know about, comparative distances, etc.

We love this globe! It has that vintage look and is very good quality craftsmanship. The price is reasonable. It's the best bang for your buck.

as nice as the 16" World Classic series globe is, it does not seem to have all that much of a higher resolution than my 42 year old 12" World Nation series globe. Nevertheless, all else with the new 16" globe is an improvement. NOTE that my old Replogle 12" looks as fine as it did when I got it in 1982 - gives me confidence that the new 16" Replogle will be a fine addition to my home forever.

A very nice representation of the world!

We are very satisfied with the look and how well it fits into our space in our home. The value of our purchase was considered to be excellent. We are very pleased with our globe!

Such a beautiful globe and a great addition to my room

Great purchase. I've traveled a bit so I really njoy looking at past places, and looking over places i hope to go in the near future.

High quality product, easy to assemble.

We are very happy with this globe. It is good quality and a good size for our purposes. I could spend hours looking at it and keep finding new info. The only improvement I'd suggest is adding some latitude scale to the metal frame.

Beautiful Globe, easy set up and quick delivery

Excellent service! I wasn't expecting it to arrive as fast as it did and so thank you very much. As a floor globe, installation was quick and easy. We are quite pleased with this purchase.

Very nice globe enjoying the new addition to our decor

After buying a globe for my daughter's family, I got one for ourselves. The service was excellent and it was packed well and arrived in good shape.
We appreciate the detail on the map. The 3-D mountain ranges is educational in itself. And now when I read, I'm frequently checking locations which makes this an ongoing learning experience. We're never too old to learn!

We bought the globe as a wedding gift, our son-in-law loves all maps etc and wanted to use the globe for guests to sign at the wedding. This is pertinent only because the globe has two areas where the lines of latitude do not meet up directly, and would detract from the globe. Not a problem for our intent.
Some reviews said it was hard to assemble the stand, but we did not find that to be the case.

The globe arrived in excellent condition, packaged well, no damage
It was just what I was hoping for
I took off one star because there was some overlapping of the seams with the map itself
Maybe that is the nature of making it, and it doesn't interfere too much with seeing the landmarks on the map

Beautiful globe that was easy to assemble

Wonderful globe, will spend many hours looking at it!

Product--top quality
Price--fair
Delivery--speedy
Would recommend to anyone

I purchased the globe for our adult son. He was thrilled! What a beautifully made product. Thank you.

It is a clear, tactile, and accurate modern globe with an antique look! We love looking at it and seeing where we have visited or lived over the world and where we still want to visit or live. Very pleased with how easy it was to order and it arrived in days. It was something we both wanted for a long time and the 16" size is easy on our old eyes!

The globe is really nice, all that I expected it to be, but the real impression was the gentleman that I spoke to when deciding what would work best for me. He was terrific, knowlegeable, helpful and pleasant. He is the main reason I will return for more shopping.

My order was easily placed and I received the globe in satisfactory condition for the price agreed upon.

We always wanted a good globe. This one is perfect for us. Interested in history & geography, this globe gives us a special utility in doing so.

My husband has wanted a globe for years. He is extremely pleased and proud of the new globe. It is beautiful and appears to be well made. I know he will get many useful years out of this quality product.

I gave this globe to my husband for our 6th anniversary. He loves it!!! We look at it together and we imagine where we will go next. We play a simple game of spinning the globe while closing our eyes. We then use our pointer finger to stop the globe to see where we will travel next. So far we are going to the middle of the Indian Ocean and somewhere in China. This is the nicest gift I have e

the relief a bit vague and unneccesary...ocean and wind currents would be a nice addition.
the pedestal is not properly scaled to the size of the globe.
I found a taller, more detailed, pedestal in a second hand store...3 inch diameter, fluted and turned in a cherry wood finish and modified it. I recommend increasing the size and height of the stand and using a wooden base as well. No globe selle

We enjoy this globe easy to find place and relate to other places.
Great style, color is design friendly.

This was my first purchase with Ultimate Globes. I did some very extensive comparison shopping before I decided on this one. It was everything I expected. I was very pleased with this purchase as a whole [...]

Great product! I bought it as a gift for my husband and he examines it almost daily. The map keys are informative and interesting. The color palate is attractive and sophisticated. The size is perfect for a home or large office and lends to easy identification. Overall a great buy and fantastic value.

A beautiful and well-made piece. The size is impressive without taking up half of my living room or emptying my bank account. The antique-look also adds to the impact. Lots of details, well made. Assembly instruction is mystifying. Illustration does not match actual parts. Assembly involves using a coin to tighten a screw in a place that clearly does not accomonate a coin plus two fingers.

This is a replacement of a 15 year old smaller globe. It's beautiful and well made. We did not plan to use the floor stand anyway, so I was not concerned about wobbling issues. The assmebly was easy once we figured out how. The instruction is not clear at all in terms of which screw and which washer and which wing nut to use. Also, it's hard to get a coin into the tiny space to tighten up the

This is an attractive and useful globe. The 16-inch diameter makes it easy to read and gives it an impressive appearance. No quality issues at all.
