Review on ๐Ÿ—๏ธ Lewo Wooden Stackable Building Blocks by Aaron Lewis

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great potential but not

As a pediatric occupational therapist I like the possibilities of this toy. I bought this to use with my clients, assuming all sorts of fine motor skills. However, there are some problems. When I first opened the package, I noticed the smell of paint on the parts. This smell dissipated over time. Straight out of the box some blocks stuck together as if they were boxed before the paint had fully dried. As a result, some of the paint flaked off before the first use. Another problem with paint is that it has a glossy finish. This makes the blocks slippery when stacked, causing the tower to tip over more easily than in a regular Jenga game. My other big problem is related to Lewo's misleading marketing. I bought this along with their other Cyber Monday Deal product. As I was writing this review, I noticed that the current "regular price" is $1 LESS than what I paid as part of the deal-of-the-day discount. It looks like they are raising the prices to entice people to buy their "discounted" items. Not cool.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • So-so
