My five year old loves this. If you have a girl who is really into fashion, she will too. It is very portable too so great for throwing in a bag and keeping a young girl entertained while you are out and about. Only negatives are that sometimes the cards stick in the machine and I wish you could buy additional packs of cards for more fashions. Overall, though, I still highly recommend the product because you will get a lot of use out of it for a relatively low price. I like it better than the computer version because it can be done anywhere and with little to no intervention from the parent. (But you may want to play with it too because it is fun!)

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Idea --- But go for the computer idesign model, February 5, 2008

I went with the slider first since it is less expensive than the computer version and I wanted to see if my 5 year old would like it. She loves the concept of putting together the outfits. The downside of this one is that it scratches the cards and so they get really dirty quickly. I ended up taking them out and just letting her go and make them up without the slide sorter.

I ended up purchasing the computer program that allows you to upload them to the computer and have runway shows and see the fashions on the computer screen. She adores this and it is a good way to get her to clean her room and other small chores so she can build these outfits and play with them online. Heck I even had a good time doing it.

Overall this is a nice additon but I would just buy the larger kit and then some cards separte and have fun.
