I purchased a lot of Haba toys, even more of the marble run toys.
All their products are super high quality, and super fun for my
2 and a half year old son. I purchased this one a few months ago
and my son absolutely loves it, and plays with it all the time, all
his friends, and mommies of his friends love it too. Everyone wants to
get one after they see their kids wrapped up with it for long periods of
time. I love toys that are fun and make kids smart, and that's what this
toy is and does. Kids have to use strategy to figure out where to put the
red and blue pieces to make the marbles go where they want them to,
not to mention my son uses his little cars on it as well. It's a really good
sized toy, I like toys that are bigger and hardy. I'm also happy that it's made
in Europe and I don't have to worry about possible lead.

After reviews I read of this toy, I was sorely disappointed, especailly after the appx $60 price tag. We all played with it for about 1/2 hour on Christmas morning and then got completely bored. The concept seems great -- I always like toys that seem educational, adaptable, and high-quality. The quality is great -- very well-made. But after you find one or two ways for the marble to bounce down to the bottom, you're pretty much done. For WAY more fun with the same kind of concept, I recommend getting a marble race game with tubes and chutes that can be built and re-built with much more variety. Oh, well.
