Matchbox Cliff Hangers Fire Station Playset

I bought this for my 3 year old son, and it's been a huge hit.He uses it on a tabletop, in it's folded state, as he likes to turn it around so he can access different sides.When it's attached to a table it's not as easy to get to the back side.The elevator works well for the most part, but can be finicky at times.

The main issue with this toy is the curved ramp.Larger cars will often get stuck about half way down because the curve is too tight.Average size cars work fine, it's just the largest that have a problem.If your kiddo's favorite car is larger than normal, you may want to look at another play set.

I'm not sure why there's a "gun" on this toy.It's modeled after a water hose, but just seems like an odd addition to me.Not every toy needs to shoot something.

My headline says it all: After five minutes of play this toy would be in pieces. It's just not tough enough for children. The picture is misleading. It seems to depict the toy on the floor. Actually it must be attached to something such as a table. Otherwise, you don't get the two-story effect. The assembly instructions that go along with the toy are bizarre. It took an hour just to figure them out.Whoever thought this one out needs to go back to the drawing board and rethink the concept. Sorry to be so negative, but this is not a good toy.

First let me say that the directions to assemble this product were less then helpful.There are parts of the set up that aren't even listed on the directions.There is screw thing, that I am assuming should be used to clamp the unit to a table, but no directions on if that is what it is suppose to do.There is a basement level that does not snap into place either down or collapsed.The crane to operate the elevator is easily ripped out or the cord knots up on itself.Needless to say it was not my son nor my favorite Christmas present.

Totally my fault, but I didn't notice before ordering it how this thing connects to a table ledge.The connection point is a little wiggly, and the overall build quality is average at best.I don't like how the truck often doesn't make it all the way to the bottom of the ramp.The elevator thing often gets stuck in the shaft.

But my son loves it, despite its faults.He can't really do much with it on his own, but he'll grow into it, I guess.I probably wouldn't buy it again, but if my son heard me say that, he'd cry.That's okay, I think Santa gave it to him, anyway.

I didnt realize this was a MatchboxproductVSHotwheels -nor did Iexpect such a difference.My olderboyshadall the HOT WHEELSCITY when they were younger I was looking for thosepieces butfound this, looked good.

The cars dont run smoothly down the tracks and the elevator bit italmost impossible toget up and down and get the car out to go anywhere.The claw also doesn't do much either seem like itshould behooked to a helicopter or something.

The shooting water dartwas the only fun part if you can get the cars to roll all the waydown the ramp.

We are having more fun with the big bag of hotwheel tracks making our own race courses.
