Crafted to honor the epic 1963 National Geographic Society-sponsored U.S. expedition to Mt. Everest, this is the 20 diameter Everest Globe entirely handmade of stemware-quality leaded crystal and considered by many to be the world's finest globe. Only 250 of these globes exist, and no two are alike--each is painstakingly handcrafted in Germany's Lake Constance region by more than 20 artisans including glassblowers, woodworkers, brass engravers, girdlers, and inlayers. The brilliant world-renowned National Geographic cartography on the two-sided map is composed of 24 separate layers of rich color and crisp detail that is applied to the crystal globe once the surface has cooled, then hand-lacquered to a polished shine. Inside the globe is a 60-watt bulb controlled by an on/off foot pedal with adjustable power button to light the globe brightly or softly. When lit, the globe reveals a physical map showing minute details such as mountain ranges, ice caps, vegetation expanses, and arid lands. When the light is turned off, the globe portrays a political map of the world labeled with 6,500 place names, including continents, countries, and cities. Unlike typical primary color schemes common to many globes, the map is painted with soft earth tones contrasted with the golden hue of the ocean that highlights the continental edges so the landmasses stand out subtly but clearly. The hand-carved and sanded base is shaped from the finest Black Forest maple and hornbeam hardwood that is hand-finished in a deep gloss that highlights the carved details on the rim and legs. The months and cardinal directions on the top of the base are delicately inlaid with iridescent mother-of-pearl cultivated from the finest non-endangered ocean shells. The meridian begins as a flat band of solid brass precisely calibrated every ten degrees by an expert engraver, then hand-curved around a wooden form by girdlers and hand-rubbed and lacquered to a gleaming shine. The globe comes with a brass plaque engraved with the number of the globe and a signed and numbered certificate of authenticity. White glove delivery includes unpacking and careful placement of the globe where you choose. Plugs into AC. 39 H x 31 Diam. with base. (49 lbs.).
Six additional trays for use with the Preserve Your Memories Slide and Negative Converter. Three for slides and three for negatives; ideal for converting large batches.
This is the most advanced desktop planetarium available for home use. Designed by the renowned Takayuki Ohira, who has been recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the builder of the world's most advanced planetarium for exhibitions and museums, it projects a realistic image of the heavens--over 10,000 stars--as they appear without light pollution. It can accept one of two high-resolution image disks (one disk includes constellation drawings and the other displays the stars) that are illuminated by a bright LED built into the globe and projected onto walls or ceilings by an optical-quality adjustable focus lens, providing a completely accurate view of the visible band of the Milky Way galaxy seen from the Northern hemisphere. The planetarium has a whisper-quiet motor that slowly simulates the turning of the earth by making the image projected move across a wall or ceiling. It can also randomly generate a simulated meteor that streaks across the ceiling. The projection angle can be adjusted to suit any room, and it has a timer that automatically turns off the unit after you fall asleep. Includes AC adapter. Ages 10 and up. The manufacturer has confirmed that this item meets U.S. Federal toy safety standards for lead. 6 1/2 Diam. globe with stand. (3 1/2 lbs.).
This weatherproof light projector box allows you to easily transform the facade of your house into an illuminated snowscape, holiday scene, or Halloween display, instead of spending hours on a ladder attaching lights. The projector creates gently falling snow flurries or other images by directing a bright white beam onto a rotating mirror ball. You can adjust the direction of the light up, down, side-to-side, or diagonally by turning the mirror ball housing, and a simple switch adjusts rate of movement. The projector also comes with a set of additional interchangeable slides (16 total including snowflakes) that slip into the lamp housing for a variety of images, including deer, stars, balloons, skaters, witches, bats, and ghosts. Includes stable stand. Plugs into AC. 22 H x 8 W x 20 L. (5 1/2 lbs.).
Developed by a team of botanists, this is the device that analyzes critical plant growth variables and recommends which plant species will thrive in your yard or home. Simply stake the unit into the soil and it measures soil moisture and drainage, sunlight levels, ambient temperature and humidity for 24 hours. The top of the unit detaches and plugs into a computer's USB port, allowing you to upload the data to the manufacturer's website. The website automatically analyzes the data and uses a database of 5,000 species to determine which plants will flourish in your environment. Ideal for the novice gardener or the green-thumbed, the device can be placed next to an ailing plant to analyze its surroundings and offer solutions to foster robust growth. Includes one AAA battery, USB cable, and stand. 12 H x 5 1/2 W x 3 D. (1 lb.).
After rigorous testing by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute, this commuter cup proved to be the best because it is the easiest to drink from and does not leak, even when inverted. It received top marks when analysts were able to turn the commuter cup upside down and shake it vigorously without a single drop escaping. When the button on the lid is pressed, you can sip from anywhere on the rim, eliminating the need to locate a narrow spout when driving. The commuter cup's dual wall design and vacuum insulation ensure optimal temperature retention while preventing the transfer of heat or cold to the exterior. During tests, the temperature of hot water decreased by only 22 1/2° F after two hours, while lesser models lost as much as 62 1/2° F. In cold retention tests, the temperature of ice water increased by only 8° F after two hours, while other models allowed the water temperature to increase by as much as 28° F. The commuter cup's handleless, slim design ensures ease of portability and allows for use in a car's cup holder. Made from 18/8 stainless steel; 17 oz. capacity. Includes a carrying case and a stainless steel filter for steeping loose-leaf tea. 9 1/4 H x 3 Diam. (13 oz.).
In tests conducted by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute, this electric blanket was rated the best after rigorous testing of heating ability, safety, and durability. This low-voltage, machine-washable blanket combines safety and comfort without stiff, bulky wires common to traditional electric blankets. Completely machine washable and dryable, the blanket demonstrated no visible signs of piling or loose threads after multiple laundering cycles. The power converter uses 25 volts or less (most use 120 volts), resulting in a safer blanket with no sacrifice in heating. The blanket has a soft, hypoallergenic 100% fleece cover over virtually undetectable wires. Large, easy-to-read controller (queen and king sizes have dual controllers) automatically shuts off after 10 hours. 14' cord between blanket and controller. Imported polyester. King. Please specify Khaki, Ivory, Slate, Chocolate, or Garnet.
This nose and ear hair trimmer was selected best by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute after extensive testing of trimming ability, comfort, design and features, and ease of use.

The ergonomically designed shaft is larger at the base, ensuring a confident grip, and the trimmer's head can be water-rinsed. With one-button operation, a velvet travel case, and a mirrored cap. Requires one AA battery. 5 1/2 H X 1 1/2 Diam.

This is the toaster oven broiler that most accurately maintained temperatures in tests conducted by the Hammacher Institute, resulting in cooked food and toast judged best of all competing models. On average, the oven's interior temperature varied only 13.5° F from the set temperature, so that the cookies it baked were soft, yet cooked throughout, unlike lesser ovens that varied as much as 36° F and either burnt cookies or left dough raw in the middle. Whereas other ovens overcooked pizza or failed to evenly melt the cheese, this oven produced pizza that had a tender, crispy crust and stringy, caramelized cheese throughout. It made the best toast of any model tested, browning bread evenly to the desired color and crispness. The 0.6' cu. interior accommodates a 12 pizza or six slices of toast and has a non-stick coating for easy cleaning. Other features include a wipe-clean stainless steel front panel, touch pad controls, a two-position oven rack, a broiling pan and drip tray, a removable crumb tray, and automatic shut-off. Plugs into AC. 9 1/4 H x 16 1/2 W x 16 D. (20 lbs.).
This dual cassette player allows you to convert your out-of-print cassette tapes to MP3 format for preservation without the need for a conversion service.

Plugs into AC. 5 1/4 H x 16 1/2 W x 8 3/4 D. (5 lbs.).
