Customer Reviews for Marble Run and Add-on Set

I got this for my youngest son's 6th birthday after his kindergarten teacher mentioned that the marble run in his classroom was the most popular toy. I did a lot of research before buying this set with the extension package. I'm very satisfied with the quality. The only thing I would point out is that the picture on the front of the box does not show a single marble run. What is shown is several individual tracks joined together. To make this into a single run we had to build this so high my children had to stand on a chair to reach the top of the run. It was a little bit of a surprise to see how tall this has to be built to do one long track. Also, my kids are very good at building things (6 and 8) but I had to set this up the first time to show them how it needed to be assembled...and even I had several pieces reversed. Trying to pull parts off to change direction made the whole thing collapse. Expect some frustration with this aspect. Otherwise this is fantastic. We are enjoying ours.

I bought this for my granddaughter because my daughters had a Marble Run and they loved it for years. Turned out my son-in-law never had one as a child. He and my granddaughter have been playing with it non-stop since Christmas. It inspires so much creativity. It keeps my granddaughter entranced as she tries to figure out the marble paths (she's 4) that her father, an engineer, builds for her. As she gets older, I'm sure she'll start building her own. It's the best.

My grandson loves this - and I see HOURS of fun for years to come!

Grandchildren loved it!! Gave them an opportunity to be creative!

I was a little worried when I read some of the comments on the toy’s stability but I’m glad I ignored them. My 4 and 11 year old love the marble maze. We (yes I love it too) have built numerous towers and am considering getting some add ons. Really awesome and educational toy.

My great grandson (7) has had countless afternoons of fun and exploration

My grandson loves it! It was a birthday gift! He hasn’t stopped playing with it!!

The Marble Run is a classic. My grandsons so enjoy playing with their dad's 30-year old Marble Run, that we bought this set so there were plenty for all three boys (ages 7, 8, and 9).

My 4 year old grandson absolutely loves it. He has fun connecting the tubes, wheels, etc. He really uses his imagination and keeps making new ones over and over again.

I gave this to a friend's Son on his 10th birthday. He Loves it. He enjoyed the challenge of building it & by the happy sounds coming from the other room, so did his his friends. They played with it until the party was over. When going to bed that night, he told his Mom that it's the best game he ever had they named it Build & Run. Each person has to build it & run all the marbles. (20 marbles come with the game, but I sent a bag of extra marbles) Then the top 3 fastest times win. I highly recommend this product for children ages 3 & upgrade

We loved the product so much that we ordered more regular sets and an add-on set. The assorted pieces allow for many different creations. Paw-Paw liked it just as much as the children.

Was purchased for our Grandson's 5th birthday. The present is a big hit
