Great Toy
This is such a great toy. I bought this toy for my 15-month old but my 4-year old loves playing with it too!
Item Exactly As Advertised, Good Transaction, Thanks! I Don't Know Who Had More Fun, Baby Or Mommy And Daddy?! Educational!
Wonderful toy for the little scientist or problem-solver at heart. My husband, my daughter and I played with this for hours. She was fascinated with (what my father told me as a child, was) the 'magnet chase game,' where one magnet chases (or pushes) the other because of the negative magnetization... Try it, it's fun with the little one's... and sometimes even the big ones ;)-
Photos somewhat deceptive
My 2.5 year old daughter loves magnets and blocks, so I thought this would be a winner. It was a little pricey, but I figured it would be worth it. The toy is advertised as having strong magnets for building, and the photos show vertical constructions. But we found the magnets are not strong enough to build even the simplest vertical structure, such as the cube pictured in the advertisement. The only thing we could get to stay up was a pyramid. Anything else collapses. I tried a couple of different ways to construct the cube, even trying to construct the "walls" on the ground and lifting them up (like they do for houses!) but no luck. My kids made shapes flat on the floor and played with them, and rolled the balls around. But there is no way to use this product as it is advertised.
Not Worth The Price.
We bought this toy for our two and four year old, thinking it would be an educational experience based on motor and analytical skills. It would have been as the package intended but the toy's magnetic element is weak and light.
The bars and balls do not stick together that well as the magnets are small, thus have a weak magnetic pull. The bars and balls fall off quickly and even a basic shape such as a cubed square do not stand up. The joints slide off easily.
Overall, it is flimsy and not worth the price, although the packaging and website claims it is "super-strong". It's not even a little strong. It was frustrating for our little kids to attempt to build a structure with this toy, despite adult assistance and supervision.
Don't waste your time or money with this toy. We are sorely disappointed.
