This product is well made and fun to use. My neice and nephew enjoyed figuring out a path and structure for the marbles to run, and then being able to take it apart to make it better or different! I love it.

My grandson is 5. This was for him and he beamed when he opened it. He immediately, with some help from his dad, started to put it together. has a great time. I'd recommend it!

This toy is great fun for child as well as parents. 3 yr needs parents help to build a sturdy structure, but loves to play with falling marbles.

The Marble Run and add on set is a fine toy. Found it frustrating keeping all the pieces connected. Once assembled the marble ran as it should, however the pieces disconnected too easily.

It would be nice to have more base components as part of the set. Also, why the difference in the type of marble. One set is plastic, the other a traditional marble.

This Marble Run is a huge hit with my 2-year-old and 4-year-old. Parents love it, too! The pieces click together well, and as long as you use the base pieces to create a foundation, it is plenty sturdy.

this is a fun and educational toy, but not built as well as i had hoped. it is hard to fit the pieces together and the structure does not end up as sturdy as one would like it to be.

It was a gift fro my 6 year old nephew and according to his mother is was a huge hit with both him and his 11 year old sister. According to the kids 'Aunt Mary send the best stuff'.

My 3 yr old son received this gift (at my request) for his birthday. He LOVES it! He has logged hours playing with it and keep going back to it (unlike many other toys). The only challenge is that assembly requires a patient adult....it can take some time. The booklet gives 3-4 examples of different constructions... it would be great to have more examples as it's not that easy to come up with novel designs that still utilize all of the ramps/rings/etc. I would recommend it for any child 3-8 years old.
