I purchased this toy for my 2 year old. She absolutely loves it (as does my 8 month old and my 3 year old). All three of them use it differently, exploring the pieces (they are very smooth) and the different ways to stack them. They love that the base rocks, making the tree slightly unstable for stacking. The quality of the toy is excellent, making the Melissa and Doug stacking toys seem cheap. This toy will easily be passed along to cousins and younger children as mine grow older. Likely, no one will realize the toy's age.

I bought this for my 16-month-old son about 2 months ago because of his fascination with stacking things. He adores this toy. It is such great quality because it is made by Plan Toys. We have already ordered him several other Plan Toys gifts for Christmas because of the exceptional quality. The wood is dyed, not painted so it won't chip and the wood is soft and smooth. The pieces naturally right themselves when they are stacked from the top so that you get a perfect tree every time. My son loves to experiment with putting on different lengths in different order to see how the shape changes. If you are reading this...buy this toy! You will not be disappointed!

I ordered this for a friend who was having a baby. I was there when she opened the box and we took it out and played with it a little. Its VERY well constructed. The colors are beautiful. The pieces seem to be a good size for small fingers, but not so small as to be a hazard. Its a great toy. I wish someone had gotten it for my son when he was born. Maybe if I have another child I'll just buy it myself. :)

This is a well-made, simple toy that will become an heirloom in our home for sure. Since I bought it more (to start!) for decoration in my newborn's nursery, I'm unsure of how much he will enjoy playing with it...I can only imagine it will be a fun toy for him someday!

Frankly, you can do without this toy. It's just ok, not great....The top two "branches" are a bit too small, and I had to hide them from my 13-month old who can fit the whole bit in his mouth. I know, I know, it's supposed to be for 3+ years old, but my friends' kids in this age range are totally uninterested in this toy. Stacking and sorting is an activity that younger kids enjoy not 3+ year olds! Even without the top branches, my son doesn't go crazy for this toy. At most he holds on to the branches like clutching toys but doesn't care much otherwise (oh, and he does use the base as a hammer).....

We purchased this for our son for his 1st birthday and it was the first toy that he began stacking after blocks. The design is simple for such a young child not to get confused or distracted by other features. It also looks great in his playroom. The wood finish is very smooth and bright vibrant colors. We are very pleased with the quality of Plan Toys.

My 15 months old son likes this toy a lot. It's great in helping children develop their motricity, sensorial skills in general and classification skills as it helps in creating awarness of different sizes and color shades. The fact that the tree spins is a bonus that makes it all the more fun to play with!
