2.0 out of 5 stars difficult to use, August 1, 2005

This review is from: Get-A-Grip Sorter (Toy)

I am not too happy with this item. It has a handle, yet is heavy enough to hurt if a toddler drops it on their foot. It is difficult to reach inside to get the shapes out. And the vertical placement of the holes is difficult to use. Other than that, it is attractive looking and constructed well.

This was given to us by a friend and my son plays with it all the time. He loves to haul it around the house and put the blocks back in it. Great toy, very durable.

This review is from: Get-A-Grip Sorter (Toy)

This is a super well-constructed toy, simple and straightforward. My son really likes it. Before he was ready to put the shapes in their individual holes, he would just dump them out and put them back in the top. His hand fits fine into the top hole. It's a little weighty, but that's not a bad thing, especially since recent studies have shown that kids who play with weighted toys have better muscle tone. I'm knocking off a star because, as a previous reviewer mentioned, the vertical slots are trickier to use than the slanted ones.
