Race to the Finish

I love this, my kids love it. So interesting to build, so many creative possibilities. My son's teacher said his ability to engineer marble runs and tracks at school is advanced compared to the other kids. I credit this toy in part because you have to think critically about engineering levels and runs and which rectangle pieces will give you the output you want with the marbles. It's a great STEM toy in that sense. We are buying on additional pieces and sets. And I love that it's mostly made of wood. It's so much more tactile and wonderful in that sense compared to the flimsy plastic marble runs.

This is a great toy with lots of potential for teaching building skills. Be prepared to build the models with/for your child at the beginning, but now my 4-year-old enjoys creating his own designs (with some help). The pieces themselves are sturdy, but this toy works best on a table. Otherwise it falls easily causing frustration.

My grandson loves this product. He likes to follow the directions and put it together. He can get a little to excited and we start chasing marbles. He has so much fun playing with it. Great value.

Gifted this to my son for Christmas! The quality of the wood is great, however once a Mable run is built, it is not very sturdy and falls over easily if bumped. Comes with a book for simple designs and easy to follow. Bought this one as an add on to the larger marble run, and it was a great addition to our collection. My son enjoys building large runs daily, just wish it snapped together a little more securely to prevent being knocked over so easily.

Excelente

I want to love this! Very fun to build with my 4 year old! He lives reading the directions step by step and assembling the different designs. I feel that this is preparing him to follow Ikea furniture building instructions some day. Unfortunately the builds tip over so easily, making it very difficult to play with for an extended period of time.

We love this! It’s a timeless wooden toy that put kiddo can easily grow into. It will be really cool when he starts making his own designs with it. It is high quality but sometimes it easy to knock it over. No big deal though!

Four year old grandson is obsessed with this! He plays with it multiple times a day. Although not all wood, it is well made maybe of wood look resin. Blocks are wood, I think. The only thing missing is a track to catch the marbles. We pulled one out of our old wood set to use.

Je découvre la gamme Quadrilla de Hape. Très belle qualité, très solide, cher mais nous ne somme pas déçu. Mon fils de 3 ans se régale. A cet âge, la construction est pour les parents : le manuel explique très clairement comment faire 3 circuits, ensuite il faut réfléchir pour en faire d'autres... Pas trop difficile et vraiment adictif même pour un adulte. Ce jeu va durer et accompagner mon fils plusieurs années.

Juego muy bonito. Un buen regalo para niños. Otorga muchas posibilidades, desarrolla la imaginación. Las piezas son fáciles de colocar, de madera bien fabricadas. Muy entretenido y se puede ir ampliando

In general - it is a joy to find a toy made predominantly of wood which gives such pleasure and frustration to both young and old. These pieces, added to a relatively basic set allowed us to construct more complex runs and proved well worth while. It is certainly an "educational" toy as well as highly satisfying and amusing. Best to build it on a firm base (not the carpet) and prepare to chase the escaping marbles!

It's great for kids. I

Bought for my 2.5 year old who loves playing with this, whilst being supervised, given the marbles. The building blocks are v clever and I can imagine that he’ll enjoy playing this for some time as the configuration of the building blocks is constantly changeable and can become more and more complex.
