I love this concept and most of the parts of this are very well-made, but the wheel itself is made of a cheap-feeling molded plastic, perhaps to make it light-weight. The stand and front magnet plate are very sturdy, as are the plastic faces for the wedges.
It was very easy to put together and includes a nice printable sticker for the center magnet plate.
I recommend using the included template to trace the wedge shape onto cardstock and lengthening the pointier end. If you make the wedges the size of the template on printer paper, they flop around. A longer wedge (turn it sideways on 8 1/2 x 11 sheet) on sturdier paper fixes that in no time.
One of the flippers is incredibly loud, great for a big space. I like it, but perhaps it wouldn't work inside with a few people.
I use this at a large attraction (education department at a zoo) and I just love it. We use it for games and educational lessons as an interactive. Everyone loves spinning the prize wheel.
