Review on Theefun PlaySand Sandbox Shaping Non Toxic: The Ultimate Safe and Moldable Sand Experience by Ashwin Drollinger

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Too expensive for what you get

I don't know why I didn't pay more attention to the scaling of the pictures but the toys and parts that come with this sand play set are a lot , tiny. The size of the parts is comparable to the size of a child's palm, which is normal since I bought this model for a preschooler. "Sandbox" folds open and has a soft, thin bottom that would benefit from something more rigid like a piece of cardboard or hard plastic sheeting to keep the sides from collapsing (and providing a firmer surface for sand and toys ). . Fake trees are very brittle (worse than dollar store party plastic) and the sand we received was brittle and sticky. We rehydrated the sand and added a floor to the sandpit. The kid played with the set for about an hour and I was able to save it all for later. I would say I overpaid about $7 for this set. For the most part it matched the description and the pictures were accurate, although I couldn't determine the zoom factor and quality from those things.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competition has arrived
