I couldn't disagree more with several other reviews of this toy. I bought this toy for my little girl a week ago and she hasn't stopped playing with it since! It is durable, compact, sturdy, and has lots of fun, hard plastic pretend accessories for her to play with: a lipstick, an eye shadow compact, a bottle of perfume, a bottle of lotion, a tube of hand cream, three paper boxes of tissues, bath beads and powder, and a plastic credit card to swipe and pay for it all.
That is of course unless she prefers to pay with cash, which is included as well. There are two sets of three coins which are fused together so they don't get lost and four paper bills in several denominations. The paper is thin, I agree, but if you pull it off slowly it doesn't tear. We haven't had any trouble with the money, the cash drawer, or the calculator functions. My daughter loves that the register speaks to you,("Hello Princess Shoppers!"), when you turn it on and off and when you are choosing the departments to buy from and the items to scan.
My daughter has only just turned four and the fun of this toy is in the pretending and scanning of the items. Items can be scanned either with a handheld scanner or a scanner bed attached to the register. Please note, the scanner just makes a sound it does not actually put a price into the register. That is for her to do. If you are looking for something more sophisticated then this is not the cash register for you. However, for a great role-playing and pretend toy this is wonderful. My daughter doesn't care if the items total up correctly. She has great fun just pushing all the buttons and feeling "grown-up." She also loves being able to swipe the credit card to pay for her purchases.
We have enjoyed this toy so much so that we bought it for a friend's little girl who was turning four-years-old. It was the hit of the birthday party. All the little girls wanted to play with this toy!

My daughter got this for her 4th birthday. She has not played with it at all since the day she got it. It comes with extra items that you can "buy" but most are just empty cardboard boxes. She does like the fake makeup though. The cash register is very realistic, which means it gives you a beeping error message if you don't press the keys in the right order. Overall I would say it is not very fun, and I wish I would have gotten her something else!

I gave this register its rating based on the specified age group which is definitley not apropriate. My bright, but easily frustated, four year old daughter received this as a gift and does not understand why it won't talk past the greeting and continues to beep ERROR at her. This toy acts as a real register, and unless your child can read, add and subtract, don't buy it. ie: FIRST you enter amount of item such as $17.00, THEN, choose cash or credit(ability to read required), if cash is chosen THEN enter amount equal or greater than $17.00,(if a lesser amount is chosen... ERROR),THEN press enter...this is way too big of concepts for a four, five, six, maybe even seven year old!

This would be a great parent child learning toy for the older child ready to learn such concepts, and I encourage parents with children in that age group to buy this toy. I'll put it away until my child is older, and I look forward to using it when she's in school learning these things.

As for those having trouble with drawer not opening...I did too, but my husband found a plate on the bottom of the register that read "remove before using". Now it works fine though it's a bit flimsey.

This toy is garbage. My 4 year old recieved this as a gift and was so excited until we put the batteries in. The cash drawer was jammed shut and had to be opened with a screw driver. If you do not enter the correct mathmatical calculations, you get ERROR messages every time. This was so frustrating for my daughter that we threw it away. The minimum age for this toy shoud be at least 8 years old.

We received this toy as a gift for my 4 year old. It says 4-9 year old recommended but most of the functionality is for minimum 7 year old readers. The drawer did not open until I pried it open with a screwdriver (almost breaking it.) The paper money ripped as I tried to separate it from the package. The calculator function would not make sense to anyone under 9 years old. You need to press the buttons in a specific order to make the calculator work properly otherwise you just end up with a lot of ERROR messages on the display. We have another electronic cash register that I paid (...) for at a dollar store that makes a lot more sense for this age range.

my 2 1/2 year old daughter was so excited to get this gift for christmas, but it broke within the first five minutes of play. the drawer stuck shut and neigher myself nor my husband could open it again. all she wanted to do was play with the cash register and we had to box it up so we could [...] it. huge disappointment.

My 3 1/2 year old daughter loves to play with this register, but often gets frustrated because the drawer doesn't work right and the screen only works sometimes.

This was an expensive toy and I wish I had read the reviews before I bought it. I plan on writing the company and complaining. Hopefully other shoppers will avoid the problems I (and the other buyers) have encountered.

This register is one of the worst toys I have ever bought. The drawer wouldn't open and the coins were attached. The boxes had to be thrown out within a week. I returned the register and got the Barbie register. I must say it was alot better investment and my daughter has more fun playing with it.

I bought this for my 4 year old daughter who loves princesses. She enjoyed pushing all the buttons but was disappointed that the chainge pieces were all attached to eachother. I was disappointed that the play boxes it comes with were made poorly and the drawer was stuck closed. I will be returning this register to the store.

I like to play shops with my little sister and we like this cash register for our little games. it is used often and we are sure we won't give up playing with it. it doesn't catch dust and when the scanner beeps we giggle!
