Does this globe turn?

Can the globe be removed from the base? I used to have one like this and the metal base rusted so I want if can be spray painted (without the globe on) in case that happens to me again.

Yes, it rotates and can come off the axis with a little effort without breaking.

No. The head rotates 360 degrees based upon the wind. We have 4 of them, and usually all 4 heads are in the same direction.

Sorry, I sent this back because it did not turn, so I can't answer for you.

It will turn but isn't free moving like what you normally think as a swivel. I have turned some of mine to face the way I needed.

I see you ask because of how it looks in the picture, but they DO turn all the way to the side. They rotate 90 degrees.

The globe is not attached to the base, it just rests on the base and is held in place by it's weight. So yes, you can spin the globe.

No - the globe is not electronically linked to the base. There are other globes that have styluses that provide that functionality.

No it doesn't talk when you touch the globe. You have to press the buttons with answers when it asks a question.

The globe is current as far as my experience so far. It is an excellent value. I highly recommend the gimbal feature that makes details in the southern hemisphere easier to examine.

Hi, I'll take a look when I get home tonight. I'm pretty sure it's a 360 degree turn. My 7-year-old has a school set up in our basement and plays teacher with it. Loves it!

I recall having to start the globe rotating manually. The levitron may learn rotation after doing it for a while.

Yes, it can. The switch is close to the rim of the globe, and slides left/right.

Yes most does. Haven't really turned it upside down or completely sideways.

Yes. It is a piece of glass that is removable and "fits" onto a metal piece that keeps it in place while it turns

Yes, it can turn completely around and the carts are also free hanging and can move. Beautiful presentation of cupcakes at Bridal Shower (couple were engaged on top of Ferris Wheel--theme was Love Makes the World Go 'Round).

Yes, the wheels turn. Steering a bit tight, but am sure that will loosen up a bit with use.
