 Just wish there were more for the price!Sep 29, 2006
By geeper
My son enjoyed this toy since I got it for him at about 15 months old. He couldn't turn it on and off himself til maybe a couple months later, but he liked playing w/ the gears. Now when he plays w/ it once in a while, he usually leaves it running, but we haven't had to change the batteries very often. Not sure why it's rated for 3+, probably for the small size and stickers, but the smallest gear is about 1 1/2" in diameter and would be pretty tough to choke on. It's well made. The stickers haven't peeled off after a lot of handling and the magnets are firmly in place. The gears turn very smoothly. It works great on the fridge or on magnetic dry erase boards.

 Best toy ever for all agesNov 30, 2006

I bought my first Gearation for my refrigertor primarily for an 18 months old grandson. He loved it and still goes straight to my refrigerator when he comes in. ... BUT ... everyone else in my family plays with it .. ages from 3 years to 70. It is fascinating, very sturdy, strong magnets, and long lasting battery. I have not had to replace the battery for 6 months. I tell everyone that this is the best toy I have every purchased for the price.

Had this toy a long timeAug 24, 2006

My son received this toy when he was 2 years old, he is now 7 years and my 2 year old daughter plays with it. It has held up very well, but they don't play roughly with their toys. They liked being able to reconfigure the gears and play with the large one separately. It has lasted a long time with gentle play.

 Fun and engaging.... for a limited time.Mar 25, 2008
By CrystalM
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.

Can't Recommend this Product EnoughJan 10, 2008
By Arlolikesstickers
I love this product so much I purchased 3 more for gifts. My son was 2 when he got it and 6 months later it still holds his attention. He easily manipulates the gears and loves experimenting with all the combinations. It feeds his inner engineer quite well. I can almost cook a meal without interruption thanks to these gems on the fridge.
