My 4 year old has had this medical kit for about a year now. It has more plastic pieces to it than other toy medical kits that I researched. The phone and the pager require batteries. It includes a doctor's name tag, glasses (to make you look smart) a stethascope with a heartbeating side and a coughing side. It has a great piece to give vaccinations. It has equipment for doing a routine physical or if the case is more serious this gives my child a chance to pretend to be a surgeon.

This is one of the few toys that my daughter comes back to play with often. I'm very happy with the product and so is she. It also scores high for both imaginary play and being educational.

My daughter received this for her 3rd birthday. She absolutely loves it. Everything is really realistic. The pager and cell phone both work. You can hear either a cough or heartbeat with the stethoscope. The case is great too because everthing fits in when your done. Even my 9 year old and his friends will play this with her.

My 2 1/2 yo son loves this set and enjoys playing with many of the items. The electronic pager and phone add to the excitement of pretend 'emergencies'. The working designs are cool, but the set could've done without the scalpel, glasses, scissors, small tray and tweezers.

My main problem is w/ the cheap plastic used & rough edges. Oddly, many of the items have screws for better durability. Seems they would've done better saving on costs with fewer items & better finishing.

I'd recommend buying a smaller set for less, or going with a brand you can trust for quality.

Bought this for my daughter (2+) and although she enjoys playing with it I am disappointed with it in compairson to other kits. Front clasp on case fell off after first day and although it snaps back on it doesn't stay shut anymore. Also, didn't realize at time of purchase but the stethoscope is just an electronic noise maker. Other kits include a "real" one that actually works and lets you hear a hearbeat. Blood pressure cuff also needs to be larger.

This product is not worth the money. I read all the reviews and thought it'd be a good buy. Sure it comes in a nice box but it's huge compared to how much space the tools take up. The blood presure thingy is broken after one day of 5 min. of play.
I would not recommend the set. Go with something like Iplay's stuff. They always make some durable toys- not like this.
I also purchased the Learnings tools. The tool belt stains everything it comes near and the tools breaks easily. Don't buy it. It's broken already.

This is our second doctor kit (the first one has fallen apart). This one seems much more durable and easy to use. Both my 4 and a half year old daughter and my 2 and a half year old daughter love it. They play doctor all the time and it really helps when they actually go to the doctor now.

I was really excited to get this one because it had won an award and I wasn't thrilled with other items I saw online. I saw some other kits in the stores that looked OK, but was waiting for this one to arrive and didn't buy them. Overall, I think it is OK. It has some cute stuff in it, but we've got about 10 play phones and didn't need another one. The stethoscope and blood pressure cuff are not as cool as I expected. The stethoscope alternates between a heartbeat sound and a coughing sound--confusing for my 2 1/2 year old and she's not able to squeeze the blood pressure cuff hard enough to get it to spin. To do again I would look around and see exactly what the kits contain before just purchasing this one right off the bat.

THis set has everything you could think of a child would need to play doctor/hospital/nurse/etc. But the quality and make is mediocre.

My grandson loved his doctor kit. He got it a few days before he had to go to the doctor. Playing with it seemed to help his enjoyment at the doctor office.

My 3 year old son loves this toy. He pretends very well he's a doctor and he even uses the glasses, wich looks funny!
Every day he plays with it and it's very durable. Also educational because he know's about immunization and is not scared anymore...Highly recommended for years of fun
