I bought this for my 6 year old daughter for Christmas. She was so excited to get it, and had been wanting this. I have to say that it's not easy to use. Constantly refilling the beads in the pen is a pain. The pen doesn't hold very many beads, so you need to refill it continuously. It seems more beads roll away on the floor than actually get used in the craft project. Once you finally get the beads on the tray (which there are 2 different types of trays depending on how you want the beads to 'pattern'. I didn't know this.), you have to spray the beads with water in the water spritzer provided. I guess the water is supposed to 'melt' the beads together, but half of the beads didn't stick together. We tried different water amounts on different craft attempts, but all we seems to end up with are tiny beads everywhere or a sticky mess. I wouldn't recommend this product. I wish I could get my money back.

My 5yo daughter really wanted these for Xmas so they came from Santa. I'm glad Santa just got a little pack. They are a pain. They don't stick together well at all. We spray and respray many times and then let them dry for at least a day. They are fragile. The pen isn't very practical either. Luckily, in researching toys before xmas, we found fuse beads. These are much easier to work with, are less expensive and the end product is much stronger. Yes, you do have to use an iron to melt the beads together, but this is a much faster and easier process than spraying water on the pixos, waiting for them to dry and hoping they stay together.

I recommend Fuse Beads over pixos.

Santa gave this to my 4 year old daughter for Christmas. She was a little frustrated at first, but after I made one and showed her how to do it she loved it. she likes making her own designs better than the templates right now. the pen hasn't given us any trouble yet. the only thing i would recommend is to buy a refill kit. it does come with a nice amount of beads, but after 2 or 3 pictures you start to run out of colors. also, i really spray the beads to make them stick, after about 20 min. I check to see if i can remove them from the tray without breaking it. if i can, i put it on a piece of wax paper or plastic wrap and spay one side, after it dries turn it over and spay the other side. this helps to make it a little more durable for kids to play with.
