Great for a short while... My son was very interested and curious about these. Then all the magnets ended up in his toy box and all over the house. He finds the gears interesting by themselves. The main unit is still on the fridge. He'll turn them on (I purchased two sets) and leave. It was a fun toy for... oh ... about a week. I'm still glad I got it though. It really kept his attention even if it was for a short time.
So Much Fun My 19 month-old LOVES this toy! She plays for hours with it! I have given it as a gift to many of my friends children and they love it too. It is not only fun, but educational too. Kids have to figure out how the pieces fit together to move.
The Gears Fun item for a wide range of ages. It's been a hit with 1 year olds and 6 year olds. It also appeals to boys and girls alike. We had it on our fridge for the longest time and then moved it to the radiator cover in our sons bedroom. It's a great toy to have on hand for spur of the moment gift giving. It's reasonably priced and unique.
Fun and engaging.... for a limited time. I ordered 2 of these, one for my son and one to give away as a gift. My son is almost 2. He was very interested at first, and figured out how to use it quickly. Unfortunately the one I opened for him does not work in forward and reverse. It only worked in one direction out of the packaging, which was disappointing. I contacted the seller- no response. I contacated TOMY corp and they quickly replied to offer an exchange. At my expense I mailed it to them and I am waiting for the replacement. Meanwhile, I took the 2nd one out of the package - works both forward and reverse. But now my son is "over it". I would reccommend this for younger ages. Fun to watch and then as they get older they can figure it out.
Refrigirator Fun We got this toy for our 18 mo old son and it's been entertaining him for a almost a year - he hasn't tired of it yet. It's great with keeping him busy so that we can get other stuff done in the kitchen. He's really good at turning it on and off and putting the gears together now and taking off the ones that are jamming it. When his friends come over it's one of the toys that everyone fights over.
I take it off the refrigerator once in a while and put it away for a month or so, it's always a great hit when it come back.
