Marbles are AWESOME!

Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2014

I was so glad I found this brand of marble maze. We have bought a few plastic versions but they have all been flimsy and not very engaging.

This marble maze series made by Hape is tremendous. We have had so much fun building with this. Not only does each set come with a book and great step by step directions with photos for making multiple mazes the color coded-functionality of the transporting blocks help kids work out marble flow and direction when building on their own. Some blocks allow marbles to flow one or two directions or alternating directions as well as some being travel though pieces while others are drop into pieces.

Although the wood pieces fit together they do not lock so it can be knocked over which may be an issue for younger children who get really excited like my four year old grandson but my seven year old son builds and maintains his mazes with no problems.

It also comes with a bag full or marbles so never having a marble should never be an issue. We use a funnel and just load the maze up and it can have a marble flow continuously for as long as someone collects and loads. It's a bundle of excitement and engages the kids for HOURS!

I was looking for marble playset for my daughter for long time. After some research, I bought this product. I must say that this is really cool and we all love it including my daughter. There are many ways to construct which is interesting. Also we can buy more of them and no difficulty in making bigger and cooler designs. The only issue I had was two of the pieces were defective and that limits our imagination to construct. The red piece which makes the marble run either ways doesnot work propertly. There is another purple piece whose top is not made like the rest of the purple pieces. Other than these two issues, I would definitely recommend this product to friends and relatives. I would even buy it again in the future.

Excellent Heirloom Quality Toy

Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2015

Verified Purchase

I bought this for my son's 5th birthday--both he and his 7 year old brother have a wonderful time playing with it. The workmanship and quality is far superior to any plastic marble run they had in the past (of which many pieces have been long lost or broken). I like that it's a natural wood toy that has the potential to become an heirloom. It also comes packaged in a large, sturdy box with a handle and compartments that have pictures indicating where each piece should go, making organization, storage, and the different parts easier to track. No need to buy a separate storage bin!

The only constructive feedback that I have is that I wish it came with more, because with how big and nice the box is, it looks like there should be more pieces included. Then again, maybe that was done on purpose so that families are left hungry for more in order to get the other kits the company makes to complement this set...

That's not to say the toy isn't worth it. This marble run is pricier than the plastic ones on the market for a good reason. I already know this set will get a ton more mileage than the other one we had. If my sons take good care of it, I can already see them passing this on to their own kids.

We'll definitely be collecting more of the marble runs Hape makes to add to this one.

this might be the coolest present i ever bought a child. i got this for my son's 4th bday. he loves to build things. i got this and the hape one with chimes. that turned out to be a great combo. the spiral is mesmerizing and the chimes add a happy satifisfaction feeling to your end products. the two sets came to about $100 at the time. pricey, but i have spent the same on lesser toys. this is high quality, easy to build, limitless options, good for kids probably 3-10. way better than plastic ones that probably fall over easily. these pieces fit together nicely and are form, fit, and function with the rest of the hape marble runs. love it.

Great Toy!

Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2015

Verified Purchase

Our family enjoys this toy! We bought it to entertain grandchildren. The six year old moved to creating his own designs rather quickly and I love the reasoning and observational skills used in building. We do have to be careful not to bump it. We also bought the Music Motion set and now use them together after building each separately for a week or so and learning how each piece works. I do like the instructions and illustrations, and the box insert that shows where to put each piece and keep track of them. The cardboard box is ... a cardboard box. I am thinking of getting an under the bed tub that would hold the inserts too. This toy will last for a long time but I do not want to just throw them into a toy box, nor lose the pieces under the couch. Now we "need " more ramps and blocks...

... grandson had a cheaper plastic marble run that he loved, but it falls apart to easily

Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2018

Verified Purchase

I ordered this even though it was expensive because my two year old grandson had a cheaper plastic marble run that he loved , but it falls apart to easily . So I figured this one , being better quality , would be perfect . Nooooope. The “connections” are so smooth it slips apart extremely easily . In fact, it won’t stay together if bumped the slightest bit. (I realize that two year olds are prone to bumping things ... but my husband and I both had the same problem) I glue gunned the pieces together because he really wanted to play with it, otherwise I would have just returned it.

My 3 year old son is obsessed with marble tracks and this one is amazing! He's still a little too young to build it on his own but with our help he's built some pretty fantastic marble tracks. He gets super excited watching the marbles run the track and the funnel is especially fun for him. Some marbles are provided;however, we also purchased additional marbles and it was nice to have the extras. We also purchased the marble catchers and that has been extremely helpful in keeping tracking of the marbles. The tracks are wood and extremely good quality. In fact, this marble track set will definitely outlast our son's obsession with marble tracks. I highly recommend this marble track.
