I always do my homework by reading the amazon reviews for items I plan to buy. I read about the poor construction of this toy, but given a lack of other choices, I decided to take my chances anyway and hope for the best. Sure enough, 2 of the 6 pins holding this toy together were broken upon arrival. Instead of going through the return hassle, I just moved the 4 good pins to the corners for now to keep it secure, and I'll look for my own hardware to fix it myself. There was no box damage at all; this toy just isn't very durable. If you decide to buy anyway, I hope you are luckier than I was!

This product uses metal pins and several of the pins on mine were a little bent so did not always pop back quickly. I could easily straignten though. Also the ends of the pins seem to have been cut with a wire cutter and not rounded. Therefore when you push against your hand or other body part the sharp edges can hurt. Also the pins will not push very far in as they seem to get stuck due to hitting each other. Build quality is poor on this product.
As the pins are metal product is quite heavy and will not balance on its side or end when many of the pins extended so if you want to leave a display of a pressing you need to be sure a lot of pins pushed in.
If you want a metal version I would suggest looking for one with rounded pin ends and better build quality of look at one with plastic pins

Our son is autistic and hard to find toys he likes. His brother had a similar toy and he picked it up and wanted to play with everyday. He likes sensory toys. He likes the feel and sound of certain toys. He is 24 and non-verbal but, the smile on his face says how much he enjoys playing with it. I'm sure younger ages would like this, also.

Same problem as other posters. Packaging looked good, but the cheap plastic pins were broken before it was even out of the box. Find another one.

It was broken right out of the box, is made in china and it's really really cheap made. If you're interested try to buy from someone else.

I had one of these when I was a kid and remember liking it. I bought one for my 5 year nephew. He loved it ... for about 20 minutes. Then he dropped it and the corner broke. It is still usable but is missing the corner and one of the screws. If you are going to buy it, maybe buy it for an older child.

When this arrived neither the outer package nor the inner package appeared to be damaged in any way. Yet when I opened the inner package, I could see that it was totally broken. The black posts that are supposed to connect the clear plate and black plate and keep the pins in place all had the heads snapped off. The pins were falling out everywhere. This product is definitely made of inferior plastic material. I am just returning it for a refund and not having a new one sent from this vendor. I wasn't at all surprised to see that this junk was "Made in China" ...I wish Amazon would specify the origin of its products, so I could buy American made products and bypass this kind of junk altogether!

Very unsatisfied!
The legs of this item came apart and so did all the hundreds of pins. I tied to glue the legs with a strong plastic adhesive but it didn't stay glued. Read more
