This is an excellent product. My students are very excited about it and every teacher in my building who has seen it has wanted to buy one. If you are looking for a way to get your kids/students to practice and want to learn their Math facts, this is a great product to purchase!

My kids just loved the original math mat that does addition and subtraction because they could run and JUMP on the answers (it was meant to be on the floor). When I ordered this one I did not realize it was so much smaller and really was not meant to be played in the same way. If it was large like the other math mat, I would definitely give it 5 stars.

I ordered Factor Frenzy and my kids were immediately excited to put batteries in it. They have had the Math Mat for two years and they love it so I was hoping this one would be as good. We were playing it and for some reason there was an issue with the 6, 7, and 9 "button". Several times it told the kids that 1 x 6 does not equal six and then when it tells you the correct answer, it said "The correct answer is 6". The three "buttons" continue to register as other numbers for some reason. I must say that when it worked correctly, it was fun. I immediately contacted Amazon and they sent me out a new one and it still does the same thing. I was really bummed.

My 8 year old son loves this game. It's great to have a toy that promotes math skills. I have to say it even has me brushing up on my math!

Being a third grade teacher ready to start teaching my kids the multiplication facts, I was very excited about this game. It never worked. Only the zero, and three worked. Everytime a factor was touched, it said it was a "3". No matter how many times I tried it, it never worked. I promptly sent it back. Don't waste your time or money.

My son received this item on Easter. There was a problem yesterday when he received. First of all, though there was no screwdriver and he began to get upset but daddy found a screwdriver and it worked. The only problem is that one of the buttons were not working. The 6, 7, 8, and 4 buttons were not working when my son types in 4 the device says, "Three" and the two keeps saying three. It's been working so far. Even when you write in the right answer it says different numbers in what my son types in. His father messes around like typing in another number beside the right number.

The 7 button keeps saying eight for some reason.

I would recommend this item only one star. But I would recommend this for anyone who is six years old or over.
