Franklin Sports 14040 Rod Hockey Review

This toy is very flimsy and not worth the price, it breaks with minimal use. Very disappointing, poor player action and controls.

I bought this for my son for Christmas and we opened it up the next day and one of the connectors on the bottom that helps move parts broke when we started playing. Very disappointing!

Easy to assemble but even easier to return. Absolutely cheap materials and it really doesn't work. It was very similar to the one I played with as a kid, so I figured I'd found the perfect fit for my kids. Not correct.

Pre-punched plastic mounting holes were misaligned and crooked. I had to use scissors to fix the problem in several areas to get the pieces to stand up. Everything else works great and my son will love it.

The photos show the retail packaging of the product but it has been packaged in a plain cardboard box with bags/plastic parts. It should be used in youth hockey. a lottery basket, but that makes it harder when people can't see what's inside.

My 5 year old grandson is a big hockey fan so I thought he would love this game I played as a kid. Although smaller than my old game, it is well detailed. My grandson has a problem turning and pushing the levers to make them work properly. When he grows up, maybe he'll gain experience. It's really fun once you get into it!

A little disappointed. The product is built very cheaply. I had nostalgic memories of a similar game from the 80's, this is NOT. I've had it for about a week and two of the player's sticks have already broken off. Luckily super glue works. Players keep popping out of the mounting pins. A player's equipment is so weak that you can hardly hit the puck. It certainly catches the attention of my kids, which is a big plus. All in all I wouldn't buy this again.

I bought this game for my 8 and 5 year olds for Christmas purely out of nostalgia as I had an old sturdy Franklin Rod hockey game with flat plastic players. I played this game to hell hoping to pass that same love on to my kids. Unfortunately, this game is poorly made. Cheap and flimsy plastic, sticks that keep breaking off from players, and sticks that get stuck as you move and twist. If he lives longer I will be shocked. On the plus side, my boys love the game despite the poor quality and for
