I wanted to buy the two tune tv for my grandson as I remembered how much my children enjoyed theirs. This one, which is made in China, is very poor quality. I don't know how long it will last. It skips and struggles just to play the tunes and the picture roll kind of jerks along..... Also, the music box is "plinky" sounding instead of being a lilting melody. It's disappointing and sad that our formerly wonderful products are just not what they used to be.

My Mom bought this for my daughter since I had one when I was little. She loves it! It is one of the top five toys my children, 5 and 2, will argue over.

Not only do my children love it, any child who visits loves it. At my son's 5th birthday children kept taking turns holding this toy. Probably the most popular toy in our home, besides the nerf guns:) I think children really respond to the music box sound, most of other toys have digital sounds.

YES!! I had this toy as a little boy back in the 1970's - 1980's. It was COOL back then. I got rid of it at a community yard sale for pennies on the dollar, and have regretted selling it ever since. Fast forward to the year 2010 and I spotted it on AMAZON.com. YES!! I purchased it for my children and they absolutely love it. It's still a COOL toy today, almost 40 years later. Thank you for a GREAT PRODUCT.

I initially thought I had received a defective product because of the jerks/skipping in notes and crinkled (dipping and loose in certain areas) paper screen but on reading other reviews, I realized that the item is simply a badly produced version of the original :( I bought this TV and the FP record player and this is the first time I have been so severely disappointed in anything from amazon.

I am not sure if the bad review received a bad unit, because mine is very durable and is just like I remembered from my own childhood. My son of course stands on it, and we have had no worries about it breaking. When he outgrows this, it will be packed up for him to pass on to his children.

This television is so cute-educational-durable. It is one of the best toys! Brings you back to when you were a child...I had one and they are still just as fun and my boys love it!

I bought this toy for my 17 month old daughter because I used to have one just like it when I was younger. It is just as great as it used to be. My daughter loves it! She likes to watch all of the pictures scroll by. It plays 2 songs which is also good. I wish it would play more but that is ok. I would definitely recommend this toy. It is a great classic. It isn't as fancy as a lot of the modern toys but it is still great.

I think it must be who the manufacturer is because the one I have is made in 1966, in the United States.

Mine still works and plays just fine - my parents bought me mine and now my grandchildren play with it.....

I think the person that gave it only a 2-star review said hers was made in China....hmmmm....

NO surprize there... is there???

This toy is for my grandson who is now 15 months. I bought it for him when he was about 6 months. This is a toy that has been around for years. I had a difficult time finding it. thanks to amazon i found it. My grandson will enjoy for many more years probably until he is 8 years old. This is the type of toy that can be stored for a keepsake as well. I just love it. my grandsons mom had one too... which is my daughter. Therefore, this was a item that will be a keepsake this time around... thank you
