Good Building Toy

As far as 'building toys' go, this is a great one! My 3 yr old can lay them out on all the base pieces while the 5 yr old can build towers. Our 'remote' broke not so long after we got it which was annoying. Even when it worked, you couldn't hook it up to too large of a structure b/c the little motor wasn't strong enough to turn them. The kids REALLY enjoyed the blinking lights, but the glow in the dark stickers are silly. They're just nice decorations, they don't actually 'glow' very much at all. Overall, I recco this toy the kids really do enjoy building with it!

great!

I received a grant for my 2nd-grade classroom to purchase STEM activities. This was one of the purchases. My students love it! They especially love the remote control piece! I ended up buying one for my grandson who is 7. After playing with the $1000 of activities purchased, this was his favorite; so it became a birthday present! Amazon delivered it to their home and his mom says that he never stops playing with it!

I don't know who had more fun with this

I don't know who had more fun with this, my grand daughter or my son in law. It was wonderful to watch them play together and build crazy things.

Perfect gift idea!

Bought for our friends daughter. This was a big hit! She loves it. I use to run a day care and all the kids loved these that is why Gears are my “go to” for gift giving 😉

This is so much fun! The only thing I wish is that we had more!!! Works great, has four balls that light up and my boys 3 and 6 love it! Pieces are a little smaller than what I thought the picture reflected but totally worth the money. I'd buy again!!!

The best building set around!

This set is the best. My son and grandson played with it on Christmas day and had lots of fun making the gears and lights work. I really liked the broad age range this product appeals to 5 to 13 years old it very unusual for toys. I do wish it came with more diagrams to put together to get the user more ideas of what could be done.

This gets so much use with the preschool kids in my daycare program! We've had it for several months now, and it is one of the few toys that gets played with daily. The little engineers in my group have learned so much by using these gears.

Fun for adult, too.

Adults have fun playing with children. We have combined two set, the basic set and this set with a motor, lights, and funky additions. Start with the basic set.

Our kid loves them

Really cool because it has the automatic component which is a great add on to the original gears set. As far as I can tell same quality as the original gears, my kid loves these, and it’s really cool to get these different style pieces. We also have a set which allows you to make a tank with wheels and comes with a plastic chain component, highly recommend combining all the sets for endless hours of play. We have a toddler so the stickers end up getting cranky old and mashed and not really utilized but not the products fault.

grandson loved it. lights and gears were fun to watch

hubby put together and built around birthday cake to make "robot cake". grandson loved it. lights and gears were fun to watch.
