This review is from: iPlay Deluxe Build A Road (Toy)
We saw this toy on display at our local toy store, and my two and three year old fell in LOVE with it. They play with it all the time, and it is by far their favorite toy- even more so than their Thomas train table, which is saying a lot.
Although the track isn't very hard to set up, it is a little challenging for my boys. However, we usually set it up, and then leave it set up for a few days, and then re-arrange it to a different design. We have carpeting in their room, so we don't have the problem that the previous poster had with it sliding around and moving constantly. The cars do move fast when they have fresh batteries in them- but my boys, at least, think it's hilarious when they jump the tracks, which doesn't seem to happen all that much, to be honest. These little cars do go through batteries quickly though, so I would highly recomend having rechargeable batteries. One of the coolest things about this toy is how well the cars grip the track and how powerful they are. My boys like to have the track go up and over pillows, blocks, etc, and test out and see what those little cars can do! This is a great toy. My husband and I are SO glad we took the chance and bought it for them. It allows kids to be creative, use constructive reasoning, test out theories... and plain old have a great time with toy cars.

This review is from: iPlay Deluxe Build A Road (Toy)
I was very skeptical about this toy, but not anymore.
The Build-A-Road Deluxe is not perfect. The cars do topple on too-steep inclines, but you can adjust the track, and in doing so, you learn little by little how to position the road so that the cars can do better -- it's just physics. The cars are feisty, which is not necessarily a bad thing. Sometimes they offroad and race across the floor, so depending on the temperament and mood your child has, this could be either fun or hell. You can pit the two cars in opposing directions and have them face off and crash into each other -- also this could be fun or this could be hell for your particular child(ren). Track movement on very low carpet is just fine. The point of this toy is to allow you to bend the road at will to make different layouts and curves, but the micromovement may prove frustrating for parents and kids depending on their temperament! The road pieces are easy to snap together, but maybe a bit hard for little hands, so to play independently with this, a kid should be older than the starting age of three on the box. I did not test the road on hardwood flooring and do not intend to because I don't want the kitchen to be the racing venue for this toy. Battery life in the cars is not fantastic, be warned. With all this, how can I say this toy is fun? We've been playing with it for hours, and we're having fun. The switch hubs work great, and in general I have no complaints about the cars or track. The cars weren't designed to be as rough as little Hot Wheels, therefore I think a direct comparison is unfair. A shell sits on top of the car's motor (and battery casing), and it's just not a rugged one-piece. In the current offroading affairs the cars are unscathed.

This review is from: iPlay Deluxe Build A Road (Toy)
I first saw this set up in Fat Brain Toys. I took two of my grandkids, ages 4 and 3, in with me to check the store out. They saw this and they got no further into the store. They loved it so much I bought one right there as a Christmas gift. I later ordered one from Amazon.com as another Christmas gift for another grandchild. The one grandchild's mom has an in home daycare. She says this toy is the daycare favorite every day and it has now been 3 months since Christmas. Well worth the money. Great toy and very durable.
