My son received this for his second birthday, he does enjoy playing with it but not for any long periods of time (like he will with many of his other toys). The cash register seems durable and it is cheap but that is really the only positives I can think of. It comes with 2 plastic "coins", 3 paper bills, and a hard plastic credit card. The machine says a series of phrases which have no relevance to the exact action you are doing. If you pass anything through the credit card slot, it will just say "that was $3" or "that is 1/2 off today). That doesn't even make sense and BTW you can make change for $3 b/c you don't have enough money to do so. The numbers on the keypad do not say their names, you can't add with it, etc. I really expected more, I do not anticipate that this toy will be played with a long time. I would much rather have an old fashioned cash register that made no noise where you could at least "pretend" without the incorrect answers of this machine getting in the way. I think I'm going to remove the batteries tomorrow and see if that works. Save your money and get something better. Oh, my son is gentle on his toys (he does not rip books and treats his toys with respect) if your child is not, the money will be gone within minutes as it is just flimsy paper money.

This was a last minute, throw in gift for my 21 mos. old. It was a good price and I thought she might like it. It was the hit of Christmas, barely beating out a train table with Thomas and a rocking horse. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because it comes with only 2 'coins' and 2 pieces of paper money and the paper money is already destroyed and gone. More coins would be fun.

A great feature is the debit card. My daughter watches me swipe my card all the time and the she knew exactly what to do with the play card. The best part of this register is the scanner. Daughter also got a shopping cart with play food boxes in it and she can 'scan' her groceries, then pay for them with her card.

Very pleased with this purchase and I'd buy it as a gift.

I bought this for my grandchildren to use at my house. They love it and of course it is totally up to date with a card scanner. There are also voice saying that are different each time the drawer is opened about the "purchase." The money is 3 bills and 2 coins that come out when the open register is pushed. The paper bills are not the most durable. But making new money on my computer would be a breeze.

I purchased two of these for my twins grandsons. They've spent alot of time playing with these. Now they want to swipe my credit card. lol

I bought this toy for my grandson. It is very durable and very colorful. Its not something that can tear up easily. My grandson is not really old enough to know how it should really work, but in time, he will. I rate this toy an "A" overall. Fast delivery..It is all that it says that it is. It will keep a child entertain for a while. I recommend to all children..

This was a great buy! The kids love the scanner & the sounds it makes.

We love this. I wish it was bigger,and my son says he wishes it had a scanner those my only complaints. It is holding up great. My kids play with it for hours.

My 18 month old loves this toy. She scans everything through it, and likes watching the change fall out when she hits the "Open" button.

One strange thing is that the "credit card" just scans as a price for an item- the same as anything you scan through the bigger scanning area you see in the picture. Still it's a fun toy for your toddler.

This toy doesn't have a whole lot of bells and whistles, but is perfect for my 2 y.o. daughter. She loves it. Very easy to use. It includes a plastic credit card, plastic coins and paper money. I wish the money was made out of something other than paper, I laminated ours to give it more of a chance of surviving. When you scan an item it says "that's $5 dollars, or $4 dollars, or $3 (etc)".

Was a little hesitant on the prodct since it does not have as many functions compared to the competition. But I am glad I chose it. It is not complicated and is easy to use for my 2 yr old. It does have phrases like, "that's half of today" when you pass an item through the yellow scanner section also when you hit the sale button it says thank you for shopping. My mom bought my daughter the Fisher Price one and it is complicated I told her to keep it at her house. The Playskool one is easy to use for my child on her own unlike Fisher Price.
