"Santa" brought this for my 7 year old, as it was what he wanted for the last 2 years.First, was VERY hard to put together and get it to stay together........crossing your fingers that you dont snap the reflection plates while doing this.Then, looking thru the reflection plates and attempting to copy is hard enough for an adult much less a child. Also gives you a headache as its a little blurry. Also hard to follow along the lines and copy picture. If the paper moves, you are done.VERY FRUSTRATING for a 7 year old.Its going back to the store tomorrow and we are getting something else.

My daughter is 7 and also got this for xmas and was very excited...until she tried it,the image "floats on the page" and was very hard to follow unless you close one eye! She was very upset that she couldn't do it as easily as it seemed on tv and neither could I for that matter. It is going back to the store and I dont recommend it for anyone, child OR adult!!

I bought this for my grandson he's been wanting it for a while.
It's very hard to trace a picture. I even had a hard time. Save your money!

We bought this for our daughter for Christmas. She tried it but
it didn't work very well. It was hard to keep open; the plastic
look-through page kept falling out and she couldn't hold it all still enough to actually trace the hard to see images. It's August and it's sitting on her shelf in "like-new" condition. What a waste of money.

I was unable to get the reflector panels to snap into place no matter how many times I tried. Infuriating! Ended up cracking one corner which really upset me. Tried taping them, tying them together; nothing worked. My daughter was so disappointed. If anyone can tell me how to make this thing work, please post it! I also emailed the company asking for help and have gotten no response. Really think I wasted my money this time.

I purchased this product for my granddaughter. We couldn't get the sides to stand up for a long time. Finally, after some frustration, they worked. Then when she tried to copy the image, it didn't show accurately and the sides fell down. It is a very frustrating and useless item.

I bought "2" of these, as we had a very long flight to Japan ahead of us and I needed something to occupy my 5 and 6 year olds. What a huge mistake! We got very frustrated trying to assemble them and even more frustrated trying to trace the images. If I could of opened the plane door, I would of thrown them out at 30,000 feet! What's really annoying is that I can't even return them as I bought them in L.A. and we live in Japan!

My daughter saw this advertised on television quite sometime ago, and asked for it several times. We finally decided to buy it online, received it today (after much anticipation!), and she is completely disappointed. To begin with, the reflection plates don't actually snap in, as the directions say they do. Next, the reflection, while visible, is very difficult to trace. In fact, I had trouble, too! Last, after trying many different images (and thinking that the next one would be easier!), my daughter tried tracing an animated cartoon. I decided to line it up for her, thinking that would help get her started, and it was impossible to do! She is ten, and is quite artistic. This toy, however, has been nothing but a letdown! She feels taken advantage by the television advertisement, and doesn't want to try it again! We are sending it back tomorrow!!
I only wish I had been smart enough to read these online reviews before we purchased Digi Draw!

My son had wanted one of these for about 2 years, after seeing them on TV being advertised. I tried telling that things on TV NEVER work like they promise. But, he still wanted one.

Then Spiderman 2 came out and they released a Spiderman Digidraw and I finally relented and we went to the store for the sole purpose of buying a Spiderman 2 Digidraw. There were alot of pieces in the box so I made them wait until they got home to open the box.

When we got home, my 7 year old tried putting it together and got extremely frustrated, so I jumped in and tried. After many attempts we came the conclusion (a 31 yr old, a 7 yr old, and a 6 yr old) that this product is very poorly made. The plates do not snap into place and fall as soon as they are touched. The image reflected on the paper is very hard to see and trace. In the end the kids just wanted to keep the colorful images of spiderman, but they were all backwards so that they would reflect correctly.

We have decided to return the Digidraw and I consider it a well learned lesson the AS SEEN ON TV translates into PIECE OF CR#P!
Save your moeny and get a coloring book and tracing paper instead

My 5 year old daughter finally received this for her birthday after months of asking for it, and was very excited, at least until she tried it. I should have read some kind of reviews on this before letting someone pick it up for her. I couldn't get the plates to stay in right. My daughter had a very hard time tracing the images. When I tried to show her how to use it I couldn't do it either!!! We're taking it back tonight and getting her something else that she can play with without the frustration. My daughter is very angry that they "tricked" her into thinking it was easy. I wouldn't give this toy any stars if it was an option. The only thing good about it is it won't take up much space in the trash when you break the plates trying to assemble the thing.
