Cute

My 1-year old enjoys this, but there's really not much to it. You push the button, it plays a tune, then the gears spin. My son can easily pull the gears off and put them back on, and he frequently will hold the center gear so everything stops.

I do wish there was a little more to it, but it is very cute for what you pay for it.

FYI, make sure the switch on the back is set correctly. We didn't realize it was set to DEMO and it barely played any music at all. Now that it is set right it plays a variety of short tunes before & after the gears spin.

made in CHINA

I try VERY hard to buy toys made in the USA. I ordered this and about fell backwards when I looked at the bottom of the box and saw those words I cringe at: MADE IN CHINA.

My grandsons (1 and 3 years old) love the gears and the lights. I didn't have to buy batteries (included). But, oh, how I detest the fact that I contributed to the demise of American jobs.

I would like to see Amazon add another line on product descriptions to state where an item is made. Buy American, keep jobs here. And give to Toys for Tots and your local food bank or shelter, please!!!

Great toy, love the interaction!

My daughter, 13 months, played with this toy while at a friends house. She LOVED it so much. They had a ton of toys but she kept going back to this one. We ended up taking it with us to grandmas house and even her cousin, 14 months, who does NOT like toys loved it. He thought it was great watching the gears spin then taking off all the gears and putting them back on. Don't get this toy if you aren't good at keeping track of the pieces. They are easy to lose.
