(More customer reviews)If you, like Morticia Addams, like to bob the flowers from your bouquet before putting the stems on display, this is the vase for you. Just as shown on the box the vase arrives in, your stems will be bathed in a color - or colors - of your choice.
What in the world was Phillips thinking when they came up with this thing? I really want to know. I ordered it for review without looking to see what it cost, thinking it was kind of a kitschy-cool Spencer's Gifts sort of item, probably priced in the $30 dollar range. (Now I'd raise it to $60 since it's a well-made piece of kitsch.) But the list price is $270, making Amazon's $180 sound downright reasonable -- at least if it were a Murano art glass piece instead of a plastic light-up vase that leaves your flowers in the dark while highlighting the watery stems. And if your stems are like mine, they just aren't that attractive, especially after a couple days when the water starts looking a little like plomeek soup.
Speaking of that Vulcan delicacy, hanging a miniature USS Enterprise and maybe a Romulan vessel or two inside the lit-up vase would be far more logical than flowers; that, at least, makes sense, since the vase has a 1960s science fiction look to it. I've also thought about using it as a goldfish bowl but decided that the lights would drive the fish mad, no matter how many adjustments Philips has made available. Marbles might look great, but I think I may try a houseplant so that I can have the nerdiest, funkiest terrarium in town. (There's a ring of white light that would probably keep a plant happy; I believe it's meant to illuminate flowers above the rim, but it can't possibly do so.)
The vase has a high-tech charging base that's a breeze to use, and use it, we have: while I'd never blow the money for this item unless maybe it was in someone's wedding registry and I had money to burn, we are actually using the vase every night. It's empty, resting atop a tall bookcase across from our bed. We set it to change colors slowly and it's fun to stare at as we fall asleep. It does beg for sitar music, though.
If a thick plastic light-up vase that's incredibly expensive is what you want, you might give this five stars. I'd give it three if it weren't for the ridiculous price tag. I might even give it four if it was under $40 simply because I'm a kitsch-loving geek. But the design is so poor -- what tested this thing, manatees? -- that it serves no real purpose that I can figure out, other than serving as the most expensive night-light show around.
