Nice but be aware of dimensions
My daughter is 2 1/2 and loves this track. It is a lot of fun for her and she loves running around it to control if Thomas will go through or over the waterfall. It seems fairly sturdy but we have the occasional pieces come off and it's usually right around the bridge (that's where the "controls" are to make the train go through the waterfall versus over the top). She has to push pretty hard on the button to drop the bridge and that is what causes most of it. The issues we have ran into so far are thus, first, the force at which the trains go down the waterfall causes the switch on top of the train to move and it turns the trains off at the bottom when it hits the curve. This happens maybe 10-15% of the time. It's not a big deal, my daughter will either turn it on again or if she has two trains running the second train is able to push the first one around. Also, while going around the loop to the bridge/waterfall, the front edge of the trains seem to get caught on the plastic supports so we have to pick it up and correct it. Lastly, the size of this track it is roughly 67 inches in length and there is no way this will fit on a standard train table. Right now we have this on the floor and I'm debating having my husband make a custom table to fit it since we don't have a train table. If we already had a table, this would be a big minus and we probably would not have purchased it.
Much bigger than I expected and the price was same as Wal-Mart! It arrived in quick time too. Thanks again..
Very impressive track! It does need a lot of room, but keeps kids occupied for long periods of time. Really a good buy for Christmas and everyday. It also shipped FAST... At this point, it is the nicest of the Thomas collection.
This will make you happy and especially your child!!!! psv
Cute toy!
This toy is really cute! My kids (3 and 5) love it. My husband had no problems putting it together (besides the fact the kids were bugging him at the time)and it seems pretty durable to me. I did test it by half jiggling the bridge and the side came off but that was easy to put back. But it's not coming off with normal play. I love how the bridge drops down and the train comes through the waterfall. It would be cool to have real water but that would be very messy.
