2.0 out of 5 stars Cute toy but the one I got was cheaply made and fell apart, October 18, 2007

In concept, this is a very cute toy, although there are way too many parts for a small child to figure out or really play with. I had two major problems with this toy, and it was a deal breaker so I sent it back to the seller.

Number one: The back doors are mounted on very flimsy hinges that don't really "hang" the doors. They just sort of snap on, loosely. So anytime my son would open the back doors (which is the main thing we would do) the doors would just fall off into his hands. This would send him screaming or crying to me in frustration to put the doors back on. One morning, I had to resnap those doors into place upwards of 20 times in as many minutes. We were both pretty fed up after that, so the ambulance was "unplayble" as far as my son was concerned.

Number two: The wheels don't move very easily. They do "go" when the toy is pushed, but it feels like the brakes are on, relative to other cars and trucks my son has that move across the floor very easily. But that wasn't the deal breaker ... the back doors constantly falling off was.

I think this is a very cute toy in concept, and should have tons of potential. But instead of worrying about so many little parts, I wish the manufacturer had spent a some more time making sure the toy was a tad more durable. My son is not rough at all with toys, but this one was ridiculously fragile.

I cannot recommend this toy.

My son (who is almost 4) got this for Chirstmas....great toy but it has alot of small parts for changing tires and raising the body of the truck. It's pretty difficult. That would be the only thing that I was unhappy with. He loves it and my fiance has had fun changing the tires etc. I'd get the police car too, so I figure I'm satisfied.

I actually bought this for my son when he was two (I put away all the small pieces), and now at 30 months, he is still loving this ambulance. We recently bought the rescue truck and RV... and he loves those as well. What I love most about this toy is that it lets a child be creative and explore the toy the way he or she wants. Though I had to hide most of the smaller items, my son still loves playing with this.
