This sturdy toy was a hit at our house. I got it for my 2 yr old and my 3 and 5 yr olds have played with it as well. It is taller than I expected which makes it more fun. The cars move fast and as a result they flip around from time to time, but my kids like that part. They are able to use not only the cars that came with the toy, but many of their other small vehicles too.

They do not play with it every single day, but I believe it is engaging enough that the younger kids will enjoy it for some time. It's nice that they have a race track for their little cars that doesn't involve 30 pieces of track and a lot of assembly. It is always ready to be used and is something the little kids can play with on their own.

The ramp racer seems built to last. Though toys don't usually last long around here, I wouldn't be surprised if this one lasted long enough for my future grandkids.

This is a great set, no batteries and a lot of fun for the kids. Little Matchbox and Hot Wheels sized cars also fit on there, although they turn over and crash and burn a lot of the time. Of course this is very fun for my son, too!

My two year old son loves to race cars and loves to play with this toy. He plays a lot of different "racing" games with the cars.

This is a fun and well constructed toy that helps develop hand-eye coordination for toddlers, but I am subtracting a star for the inappropriate age designation listed on the product description and the box. In my opinion, 3-year olds and up will be bored with it.

However, I gave it to my 2-year old nephew and it was just perfect for him. Correctly seating the cars in the tracks was just the right challenge for him, and he spent a great deal of time experimenting with how the ramps worked and what happened when you put the cars in different places. There are no bells and whistles -- nothing lights up -- no electronic sounds -- just the simple mechanics of gravity and momentum. What a refreshing change!

The ramp and cars are made of wood and solidly put together. (He tested that, too!) I hope that he will spend many hours with it, although I suspect that once he is old enough to put the cars in correctly every time, his interest will wane. That's why I think it is more appropriate for younger toddlers than the product description suggests.

My 18 month old loves his ramp race (almost as much me). He pretty much trys to put anything in there, but is learning only to use small cars. The two cars that came with it, get down the ramps about 90% of the time without crashing.

Hi,

I just received this as an early Christmas present for my two boys. They absolutely love it. They fought over who would open the doors for the cars to race down. They are fascinated over and over with the racing of the cars. They even put the matchbox cars in it which also works great. It comes already assembled which is really nice. A great toy and awesome quality. My sons are 4 and 2 and both of them love it.

Bought this a couple of years ago for my for Christmas. He loved it at the time. Great for that 1-year to 18-month phase. But now we have it in the garage as an outside toy and all the neighbor kids love to play with it. It works with a lot of Hot Wheel cars too.

The two track racing thing, and the fact that it's vertical, makes it both a lot of fun and not take up a lot of space -- a good combo.

No batteries, no annoying noises, only imagination. Perfect. It is made really well.

My son was 2.5 when he received this and played with it only a few times. I think it's a great, really cute toy, but once he saw the cars descend, he was done with it.
