Not surprised by the negative reviews. Kids want tricks that are perfectly deceptive with no practice required, unbreakable, and free.

This illusion fails in each of those points. But that doesn't mean it's not exquisite. ;)

The gimmick was slightly surprising to me as I had guessed a sightly different method. In the explanation download, Losander mentions he had tried "my" idea and further improved upon it to reach the final solution. I agree his solution is excellent.

The illusion is wonderful. However, it's not for everyone. If you work restaurants, I'd highly recommend it. What could be better than levitating a guest's glass using his borrowed napkin? All the makings of a genuine miracle.

The gimmick is fragile - but not so fragile that it's not workable. If you are clumsy and more like a bull in a china shop when it comes to magic, don't get this. If you are a light-touch and a visual artist, this illusion can only help your mystique.

I'd like a slightly stronger material for the gimmick. I'd also like a different possibly smoother cloth. I purchased mine directly from Losander and t came with download, gimmick, and black napkin cloth - but it's cotton and creases easily.

All in all - a wonderful illusion that will take a master just minimal practice. Not for beginners. Intermediates will need to work a bit to get the hang of things.

"The gimmick is fragile."

Mine broke (the part that attaches to the rim) . Anyone have any tips on how to fix it or replace it without buying a whole new gimmick for $85 ?
