 "No Caterpillars Ever Sent!" 2009-08-22
By Happy Mom (Phoenix, AZ)
My daughter got this toy for Christmas, and shortly after Christmas, we sent the money for the caterpillars. Months later we realized that we never received the caterpillars (by then it was too hot to send them), so we contacted Spinmaster and told them when we sent the check and when it was cashed and that we never got any caterpillars. Their website said they would respond in 48 hours. We never received any response. Now we have an empty bug house and no bugs. We feel like we totally wasted our money.

 "Good Caterpillars" 2009-06-01
By A. Jackson (FLORIDA)
Butterfly house was as expected.

Mailed away for Caterpillars they came in about 2 weeks they were great and easy, one was already hanging from the top the other 4 were hanging by the next day. They are now hanging in the house we are waiting for them to emerge. My 2 and 8 year old girls and my 4 year old nephew LOVED watching us move them from the cup to the house. GREAT ENTERTAINMENT the adults and kids can't wait to see and feed the butterflies.

 "Toy is fine, COMPANY IS NOT" 2009-05-13
By J. Tittle
My kids love the tree house, but my problem is the company. First, they need to say how much shipping and handling on the caterpillars are. It was an extra $25! They messed up my order, and when trying to fix it, they sent it anyway. Now I have two treehouses and I only wanted one. Then the charge to my card was a different amount than the receipt they sent me. Now I am trying to fix that but their customer service line is always closed. And they won't help me online- just keep telling me to call. DON'T BUY THIS! IF ANYTHING IS WRONG YOU WILL NEVER GET IT FIXED! BUY FROM A DIFFERENT COMPANY!

 "Has anyone else had this problem?" 2009-10-25
By Brittney Pacheco (Tennessee)
My grandmother bought this toy for my daughter for Christmas last year (before she was born) I was so excited when she finally reached the age recommended for the toy.

I got it out of the closet and she loves the lights and colors, the only problems I have with the toy seem to be some kind of a glitch?

The toy gets stuck on the elephant, and repeats it every five seconds. It will overlap any other gameplay, it just continues to talk about the elephant even if you push something else.

The number '2' is also stuck, it says it is a '3', so now it is teaching her the wrong thing, plus the '3' also gets stuck with the elephant. Our family personally tries to keep the toy "off" or hidden as long as possible. My daughter loves the colors, lights and ANY noise at this age, but we cannot stand to listen to it. We joking say it is "haunted" since it comes on and repeats the elephant while the baby is across the room ignoring the toy.



I also don't like that it doesn't talk about the colors. It should say something about the color red, or yellow or SOMETHING when it flashes, even as a different mode would be nice?

She is too young to care about the numbers and name of the animals.



Not real happy about the toy myself, but it kept my daughter entertained for a little while so I cannot rate it horribly.

 "Fun, will grow with her abilities" 2009-01-15
By Melissa Watson (Dallas, TX USA)
Our daughter received this toy for Christmas. She enjoys the sounds it makes and the way it spins and lights up. At only 9 months, she doesn't understand the questions it's asking, and she is not able to make it spin on her own, but it's a fun toy for us to play together. I think this will be a good toy for her as she grows, because it has so much to offer. It is very durable; she likes to turn it upside down and bang on it like a drum.

 "Thought it would be better" 2008-12-13
By Kay
I think this is a prime example of what happens when adults try to think what children will enjoy and find entertaining, and end up with something far more complex than than the intended age group is able to handle. Each time you press the spindle down, it spins the toy to a new function - numbers, animals, music, silly sounds etc - and then the animals, the big buttons and the toy's own prompts each do, or direct the child to do, something different. This is recommended for 9 months and up but it's my personal opinion that this is far too sophisticated and complicated a toy for a child younger than 18 months, possibly even older. My daughter is quite bright, certainly no less intelligent than any other child her age and in some aspects quite well advanced but it seems like it overwhelms her too quickly. She can't keep up with the instructions and questions - it doesn't give her enough time to answer, even if at 16 months old and having never left the city, she had the faintest idea which of the brightly colored levers is the monkey anyway. I think she may enjoy it more when she gets older but at this point we're not getting much use out of it. Mostly all she does is bats it around so the body spins, and we occasionally play the music.



The overall design is good and it's constructed well, the only physical flaw I've noticed is that in the music function, you use the animals to activate the tunes but if you hit one of the big side buttons by accident (which play individual notes) it halts the tune being played and resets the music.

 "Dangerous" 2010-05-12
By Christine
This is a great toy except for one thing, the blocks fit in my son's mouth. He learned this trick today. We have now thrown away the blocks and are contacting Vtech and the CPSC. In fact, the blocks fit inside a paper towel tube, the test for choking hazards in infants. What a disappoint.

 "FAVORITE TOY FOR 3 MONTHS SO FAR" 2010-03-15
By Stephanie Laughlin (Three Rivers, MI)
My son received his v-tech blender for a Christmas gift when he was 8 months old, he is now 11 months old and loves it just as much as he did 3 months ago! He loves the music and the noises it makes, from the beginning when he first got it he started pushing the shapes in with his finger after we would place them in the correct slots, he now matches the shapes and colors on his own at 11 months old, which I think is great :) He does put the shapes in his mouth which was a concern at first due to the other reviews, but no problems as of now. I just make sure I am watching him while he is playing with them. I would recommend this toy, very educational and fun. My son usually gets bored with the same toy pretty easy, but he seems attached to this one.

 "Daughter thinks it is fun, but mom thinks it is dangerous" 2010-01-29
By McMartian (Indiana, United States)
When my 9 mo old daughter got this toy for Christmas she just loved it. However it didn't take long for her to realize she could fit the shapes completely into her mouth. So now she is only allowed to play with the blender and the shapes are put away. They are much too small and I really think this toy should probably be recalled.

 "Open the box, then throw the blocks away." 2010-01-18
By ROKNAR (mississippi)
I have read all over the Internet that many parents share the same concerns that I have regarding the blocks for this toy. The size of the blocks is just right that it can get lodged behind the teeth in a child's mouth. Luckily, I have not heard of an emergency room visit regarding this toy, but several reviews stated that there were nervous moments where parents had to pry their child's mouth open enough to dislodge the toy from behind their teeth. I love this toy for the sheer fact that more kitchen-style toys need to be available to both genders as learning tools. My 18-month old son almost lodged a block behind his teeth within 15 minutes of opening this toy last year for christmas. The toy is great otherwise...so just toss the blocks and let them have at it.

 "Best shape sorter" 2010-01-13
By New Mom (Wisconsin)
This is the best shape sorter I've found. I couldn't decide if I should get it as my son is 17 months and the package states 9-36 months. Sometimes toys labeled as such are too easy or quickly outgrown at this point.



We've only had this toy for a couple of days, but my son loves it. He plays with it almost non-stop. That's rare for any one particular toy. He loves putting the (5) shapes in the blender, taking them out or dumping (nice large handle)them and putting the lid on. The lid is an oval, which could be more challenging for younger children. The shapes are difficult to put in the designated holes, however he's getting the hang of it. In fact I kind of like that it's a little difficult to put in at his age as it makes it a little more challenging. He has to be a little more deliberate in his actions. The blender recognizes when you put anything inside and when you put the lid on, as well as what shapes you're putting through the sides. There's also a couple songs and buttons. He likes to press them. There is also a volume button on the bottom, but it's still a little loud when on the lowest setting. However, most toys are. The blend button is a little challenging and takes dexterity. He hasn't quite gotten the hang of that yet. It seems it's supposed to blend slower when the shapes are inside so that there's no danger to anyone. If there was true power to it there might be some danger to children. Anyway, it is NOT a hazard and I think it's an awesome feature.



As for the stickers on the shapes, they are shiny stickers to attract a child's attention. At this age they're not of any concern to me. I do however, understand the concern with younger children. It likely won't kill them, however it's not ideal for them to be eating stickers. I really only see this happening if it constantly gets wet to loosen the stickers or they knaw or chew on the shapes. Maybe vtech could get rid of the stickers.



Overall, this is the best shape sorter out there and I really think it's most ideal for 12 months or older. In fact I truly love it for my 17 month old son. Don't get the Fisher price cookie jar as it had annoying sounds and has less functions for a higher price.

 "Great toy, but one caveat" 2010-01-09
By Michelle (Denver, CO)
This toy is actually really good - lots to do on it to keep my 1 year old entertained. I will warn people however that you will get the extreme urge to throw this against the wall. After playing with it for a bit, the sounds will randomly go off even when it's not being touched. I seriously have to turn this off a lot because of that. My son won't have touched it for like 5-10 minutes, he's on the other side of the room from it, and it makes noise.



With that said, like I mentioned, it's really good for the kid.

 "Baby loves - but annoying!!" 2010-01-05
By Cassandra (Washington, DC USA)
My 9 month old loves this thing. But I have to disagree with some of the reviewers who praised the low annoyance factor of this toy. The songs drill into your brain like parasites... If I hear "spin spin a letter" one more time I think I'm going to scream. But, like I said, the baby loves it and it keeps him entertained, so the toy comes out almost every day.

 "A Stable Spinner" 2009-11-28
By Eliza (Seattle, Wa)
My 8 month old daughter loves toys that she can spin. She gets so excited when she sees the wheel move knowing she made it do that. I bought one of those spinners with the suction cup on the bottom and she went apesh** over it - but it kept getting unstuck. So I bought this because it has a wide sturdy base. Like I hoped, it stays put so she can spin to her heart's content. I only wish it did something more interesting in response. She is far too young to care about the letters or animals - she'd rather it had cool lights or beads to rattle. She honestly enjoys spinning it just as much when the sound is turned off - it adds nothing to the experience.

 "Fun toy!" 2009-11-25
By HBMommy (Denver,CO)
My daughter recieved this when she was around 6 months old... and is now 14 months and is still a favorite in the hosue! She likes to spin the animals and find her favorites... the dog and such, and now she spins it with her feet! Funny to watch. I will say however that some of the animals have odd noises and wish they were the actual animal instead of a sound. But who can really imitate a jellyfish? Over all it has been a well used purchase and am happy to have spent the money.
