instructions that are difficult to follow; Fragile toy

Poor quality instructions. It is very difficult to follow even for adults and the images shown are useless as the internal components are not visible. The fully assembled bike falls apart in seconds because the big wheel is not fixed well on the suction cup. Very disappointed.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Out of fashion

GREAT! and a lot of fun!

That's a hit in this house! My son used to visit the STEAM museum at school and all the kids from Kindergarten to 4th grade loved it! They were a success both at home and at school! I love that there are multiple ways to build with them and the kids can let their imaginations run wild! They are great for a STEM program.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

Cool building toy.

This is our second set of gears. We liked the first one so much that I bought another one because my son wanted to build something with wheels. We plan on getting a few more sets because they get his attention and we all enjoyed playing with them. Parents like to play with their children. A good alternative to Lego style toys if your child is too old for Duplo but not ready for little Legos.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Dumped

The front wheel and center section fall apart as if connected by oil.

The front wheel detaches so easily that it doesn't function as a functional toy. Also, the center section joint that connects the handlebars to the transmission center section slips so easily that you have to constantly put it back together every minute. Toys, they actually want to use and play with them, so look elsewhere.

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • Upgradable

Broken front wheel

Before buying I read a review for my son saying that the front wheel does not hold up. I was hoping it was just defective but the same thing happened to the one I got. We ended up gluing the wheel because my son got frustrated every time he played with it - the wheel wouldn't go 2 inches without the wheel falling off. These toys are very neat and my boy loves all the gears; I want the company to solve this problem. It doesn't look like it will take much rework to make this toy great rather than

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Protection
