not worth the money or the space
»
There is another listing for this product on amazon (same product) and there is a one star review there. I am more in agreement with that review than with the ones I read here.
it is a cute toy and there are lots of things to do. but there are a couple of negatives which make me wish we didn't spend the money. first, the ramps for the balls always pop out and they are not simple to get back in. second, although it is fairly easy to fold up, it still takes up A LOT of space when folded at least half the amount of space as the dome when fully assembled. and you can't pop it back into the box at that point, because it won't fit. you have to lean it against a wall and it is always falling over (even when you use the plastic piece they suggest to clip it together).
my 3 and 7 year old kids were more interested in the toy than my 1 year old.
just thought I would provide this alternate view, since all the other reviews seemed so glowing.

Amazing toy- especially for twins
»
My 14 month old twins recieved this for Christmas and it is amazing! They love to play in it together (they both ift inside well) or peek through it and giggle at each other. The balls rattle which they love and there are so many differnet ways to play- ball rollercoasters and tunnels, spinning toys, mirror- they are ative and love to chase each other inside and out. I also feel that thsi toy is safe for 12 months or even younger. There are no sharp or small pieces and it is very sturdy. They can use it to pull to stand and cruise it- it will slide a little but does not fall or collapse, even with two babies pulling on it. This is an a amazing toy!

Don't believe the Amazon warning!
»
Not sure why Amazon.com has chosen to list this as "not suitable for children under 3 years". The manufacturer has rated it for 12 months and older. I got it as a gift for twins who are exactly 12 months old, and it works just fine. Look at the other reviews too. Anyway, it worked great as a gift for the 1-year olds. Especially valuable for pair-play. So rare to find gifts like this.

Wonderful!

We got this for my 15 month old daughter for Christmas. She LOVES it! Even my five year old daughter enjoys using the keys to unlock the covers and let the balls fall out. They like sitting together in the dome and playing with the many interactive pieces. This is a very engaging toy - I'm so happy that we decided to purchase it!
