The nickel plating gives it a nice heft, and I love watching its six legs spin in opposite directions as it trundles across the floor. It’s oddly satisfying to wind up and set loose on different surfaces.

The way its six legs alternate in a smooth walking motion is mesmerizing—it really does feel like a tiny rover exploring the desk. The nickel-plated body has a nice weight to it, and the double spinning off-center action adds an unexpected wobble that makes each stroll unique.
