For a creative kid August 13, 2010 Ixchelle J. Allen (Colorado, USA) My son was 18 months old when he got this for Christmas. He LOVED it. He would drive the cars in and out of the elevator and up the little ramp. He is a little heavy handed and would press down too hard on the ramp and it would come off, but it is so easy to put back on. That also became part of the fun. He loves to put cars on all the levels and even takes other toys and pretends they are in the firehouse. Even now after his 2nd birthday it is still one of his favorite toys.
for a 4 year old May 3, 2010 C. Winschuh (Palm Bay, FL) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My son got this toy for his 4th birthday and will not stop playing with it. The ramp did fall off once but we were able to snap it back on and it has not fallen off since. He loves the slide pole for the trucks and that all the trucks fit nicely in the fire station and that he can play with the fire station and the construction querry at the same time and that it can go where he goes like to great grandma and great grandpa's house on vacation.
The only thing is I would not recommend this toy for any child under 3 it is for older preschoolers.
Good & Bad December 21, 2009 J. Tavarez 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My son, almost 3, loves it. I do see what others say about it being narrow & the track falling off. My son just took it off & doesn't want it put back on. He has no problems though with getting the firetruck down the narrow spaces but he's older and knows how to navigate them a little better. A year or so ago, he couldn't have done it. I also wish it had some sound or noises or something. Although he makes his own as he drives around ;)
I gave it 4 stars because he does pick it first out of all his other toys. He uses his matchbox with it & his CARS too. Works just as well for those.
Hard to play with November 17, 2009 K. Wilkerson (Suffolk, VA United States) 11 out of 11 found this review helpful
This toy is very hard to use. I bought it when my son was 19 months old and he seems rather frustrated when he plays with it. First it is much too narrow. When a truck is on the top level and he tries to grab it his hand gets stuck. The middle and bottom level are a waste as he cannot reach the trucks when they are on these levels. The ramp is cute but it is hard to drive the trucks across the track and turn it so the truck goes down the ramp. When the elevator is on the bottom level, I have to help him grab the little handle to help pull it up because again his hand gets stuck. It also tips over very easily. All in all I think this toy is a waste of money.
Poor design November 24, 2009 J. Lebihan 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I agree with the previous post. I bought this for my 2 year old son who loves fire trucks but he became frustrated when he had to squeeze his hand through it to get the fire truck to the other side. It is very narrow and not practical at all. If I had known it was that narrow I wouldn't have gotten it. My son doesn't even play with fire station now, just the little fire truck. I would not recommend this to a friend, it was a waste of money.
