" ... 8 yr Grandson loves it ... "
" ... My boys love building with these. ... "
" ... My kids have played with them for years and we added the 2nd set now that they are older and they still love to play with this toy. ... "
" ... 3 year old nephew LOVED this for Christmas! ... "
" ... My kids 7.5 and 9 love this toy!!! ... "
" ... I bought 3 sets for my kids, and while you do need to help them out, it has provided hours and hours of fun. ... "
" ... My son has enjoyed it so much ... "

" ... Not sturdy at all to make a blanket fort. ... "
" ... THESE ARE IMPOSSIBLE TK PUT TOGETHER! ... "
" ... But these forts are not sturdy at all! ... "
" ... And everything is plastic and will splinter and break if you force into the holes too hard. ... "
" ... But, the connections of tube in ball shells are very weak, and in total, its impossible to construct any stable building. ... "
" ... Moreover the holes are VERY shallow so the rods NEVER stay in. ... It only takes a second for any kid to pull the rods out of place. ... No way does the thing bear the weight of a sheet or blanket to cover the fort without coming apart. ... Could barely keep the rods in place to even assemble it. ... "
" ... My son is 5 and would want to just build but couldn't because the holes were confusing and he couldnt read the letters inside. ... "
" ... The rods are a bit flimsy. ... My grandson has already bent one. ... "

" ... My princess likes it but little stiff for the connecting part of balls and sticks. ... "
" ... The product is extremely flimsy plastic unsteady, falls apart and there aren't enough pieces to build anything for my 3 year old son. ... It falls apart so easily and its way over priced. ... "
" ... The weight of the blanket(s) tends to make the poles slip out or bend depending on the structure shape you build. ... "
" ... Firstly, the pieces don’t stay together well and when they do stay together, the ‘fort’ is super flimsy. ... "
" ... It is wobbly and falls apart. ... "
" ... The angles dont assemble well so it falls apart. ... "
" ... This takes some muscle to put the sticks into the balls and you have to make sure you put them in the right way or else the entire structure is not gonna work. ... "
" ... Kinda hard to stick the sticks in the holes. ... We manager, Just was a tight fit. ... "
