4.0 out of 5 stars Toy May Be Fine, Avoid The Seller, December 26, 2008

I ordered this toy as a Christmas present for my son. A week after ordering I still had not received any order confirmation from the seller (KazooToys). Instead I got a follow-up email from Amazon explaining that the transaction was in limbo and my card had not been charged. I cancelled the order -- never received any communication from KazooToys.

Since then I have seen in other product reviews that they have a pattern of flaky fulfillment, which includes canceling customer's orders without explanation. If you are interested in this toy my suggestion is: Contact the manufacturer directly to find another reseller.

I had to give the product a star rating in order to post my comment. Since I never received the toy, the rating is entirely fictional.

2.0 out of 5 stars Difficult to put together, June 20, 2010

The holes were not drilled straight or big enough, so we needed to drill them out further. Even then, the badly made screws and screwdriver were so difficult to use that my son could not put it together himself. He asked for help, and even I could not drive many of the screws. We'll get out the drill later and try that way.

This is supposed to be a toy for kids to assemble and use themselves, but the poor quality of the materials makes that impossible.

This is a nice project but probably for older kids. I bought it for my 4 yr old and he needed a lot of help putting it together. It came out nice when it was done and he even painted it. It was a nice project to do together, but it has a lot of screws.
