The reviews are pretty bad for this toy. It says it has a high rating but if you click into the ratings there are no 5 star ratings, and the most recent verified purchases say it's cheaply made and doesn't actually work.

I wonder if there's a logical explanation for this. For toys, I would just stick with Target.

I'm not sure. As a mom I know all too well that Amazon's off brand toy market is a gamble. I agree that it's better to just buy known brands or from a trusted retailer.

Thanks for pointing that out! I clicked on another one and similar ratings where it says either cheaply made or doesn't work. Will skip.

I bought several toys for my kids, nephews and nieces. Most of items worth the money are the ones I go to store to purchase. So my recommendation is checking them yourself at stores, unless you owned one before. You will end up wasting less time and money.
