the whole family has enjoyed it, but would like to see some possible formats for the younger children to have to go by as they develop their mental structural skills

My grandsons love to build with this and then let the marbles go. Keeps them busy for hours.

kids and husband love it! only complaint is that it did not come with any diagrams of different runs youu can make. Our school version has this and it helps for us less creative folks!

this is a classic toy, great for young children and older children. even fun to 'help' them play as a grown-up!

Best marble run on the market-and best price! The add-on set isn't necessary but is a big plus. Together it still costs less than most others with less pieces! We are VERY PLEASED!! Hours of fun to be had by all! Wonderful intro to physics, and great 'instant gratification'.

Our 7 year old really likes the toy. Takes a little while for them to manipulate the pieces properly but they have a lot of fun with it once they get the hang of it. Too bad they don't have pink and purple add on pieces-the girls would like it even more. (:

We had a similar Marble Run, but this one seemed much more sturdy with great add on features. Great for hours of fun.

This is a great toy, my son and daughter(age 4 and 7) LOVE playing with set. Together we have made so many different sizes and shapes of towers and they so enjoy racing and timing the marbles through. I think my husband enjoys building them even more than the kids. The many pieces and endless design options keep them entertained for hours.

My grandson and I were disappointed in how easy it feel apart. It does not stay together very well.

I really wanted to put a 5 rating down for my son. He loves this toy!!! At 5 1/2 he plays with it independently as well as with others. The reason I put a 4 rating was because of my nieces. They are a little older 6 1/2 and 10. They are more impulsive and no matter how many times I told them to build the structure on the hard floor (not the rug) and the higher they build the structure the wider it needed to be. They didn't listen. So I think if the child loves blocks and has an attention span for building things, this is a great toy for them. Every kid that has come over is fascinated by this.
