It takes FOREVER to get Elmo to pop out. By the time the very annoying song plays 10 times my one year old son is crying and frustrated because Elmo has STILL not popped out. It is also impossible for a small child to use because of the tiny turn handle. I can hardly grasp hold of it, let alone a child! This toy is a complete waste of time and money.

...Sure do set this toy off. We have had it for a while now -but the batteries have been permenantly removed. Ours used to play music all by itself in the middle of the night if it had been cranked just so the day before. It took us a while to figure out why our then 3 yr. old started waking up terrified. Now we know. It's cute but takes many cranks to pop up, and, once it is in just the right position, will play music with just about any movement! (even something being blown on it by the fan in the middle of the night) Don't waste your money...Get something else-anything else!

My son loves Elmo so when I saw this inexpensive Elmo toy, I thought, why not?! It DOES take forever to pop up, which frustrates me and my son. Also, it will just be lying in the playpen, minding it's own business and Elmo starts his muffled laughing, which is kinda creepy if you are up late at night!!! Don't waste your money on this mostly-frustrating toy.

Our 16 month old LOVES Elmo. So when I saw this toy in the store I couldn't wait to get it home to her. After showing her how it worked, (yes, it takes too many cranks to see Elmo)she tried it herself and became so frustrated, she began to cry and whipped it across the room. (She has a temper) Anyways, I remember laughing and thinking how this all backfired on me. She doesn't even want it in her toy box so save your money for something else.

It giggles in the toy box unexpectedly, and when my son tries to wind it, it keeps going, and going and going....until I have to pry it open! It's very durable and has been thrown many times in bouts of frustration. To my amazement, when it landed, it still didn't pop up!

As mentioned before, it takes a long time to get Elmo to pop up UNLESS you hold it at an angle. On a flat surface, it will never pop up.

A poorly made toy. It does not even deserve to the on the Island of Misfit Toys.

I bought this toy for my son because be loves cookie monster. I'm sorry to say that the sounds this toy made were so enoying I had to finally hide it, then give it away. Was a great concept for a toy, but the sounds they can really improve. thanks for reading

My daughter loves elmo. However, it take so many turns to get him to appear she either looses intrests or insists that I do it over and over.

We bought this toy for our son thinking he would love it but he doesn't even play with it. It goes off all on it's own at the worst possible times. Spend your money on something else!

My daughter got this toy as a gift, and although she kind of liked it, my husband and I found it very annoying. My daughter liked the music and when Elmo popped up, but like the other people have said, it takes awhile for Elmo to actually "pop" up. My daughter would get frustrated when it didn't open after turning the handle a few times. The worse thing about the toy is that it does go off at odd times. It doesn't have an off button, so you can turn it off. We have to put it away from other items because if her other toys happen to hit against it (like in her toy chest) it'll start playing. This is one Elmo toy I wish my daughter never received. Don't waste your money.
