Review on Sassy 80804 Sushi Sorter Multi by Sophia Wells

I haven't had the packaging issues that some others have mentioned. It came not only in a plastic bag but in a branded box tied to the package just like you would expect on a store shelf. Colors correspond to photos. The colorful contrasting colors all around make it as colorful as the other toys in the toy box. Novice parents have no security concerns. There are no sharp edges or rough plastic parts anywhere, the wheels are securely attached and there is not the slightest possibility of removing them without damaging them. There is nowhere big enough for our 9 month old to stick a finger in. As far as gaming goes, it works exactly as you think. Pull it a few times, holding the wheels while you lift it to pull it back up and add more tension, then release and it will go. This little guy has a surprising amount of "cuteness" when let loose. However, remember that it does not move across the carpet. Not sure if the floor drags or what the exact reason is but we have a "low pile" carpet (as many have said it can work and not move on it at all. A little nudge can help get you through 4 or 5" before it stops again. I believe this only works on the type of indoor/outdoor rugs that have no 'height/pile' at all. Works great on their playmat and on each of the many tiled surfaces. The balls will pop and bounce as the car moves (others say it doesn't, but mine works great.) For the price, I recommend this toy./ Wooden floors or playmat.
