Nano Speed - Super Vert Crash Set

Comments about Spin Master 1001130 Nano Speed - Super Vert Crash Set:

My 3 year old picked this out. He has older sisters that I figured could help him with it. The plastic is a bit flimsy but went together nicely. My daughter got the cars to go around 19 times consecutively so we did not have the problems other reviewers did. At some point the tiny cars fly off but it is called a "crash set". I think it would be boring if they didn't! They go around the track really fast and the tiny cars are really cool! My 9 year old daughter totally loves it!! I recommend it..not sure how long it will last but we are having a great time with it. Also, there are no directions for the stickers. I just told my kids to be creative and make it their own. The product and stickers on the cover of the box are slightly different than what was inside but maybe they made adjustments to it to make it work better. Totally fun with multiple cars. Ages 3 to 45 love it here. I purchased it in January 2012.

If you bought this based on the video, you will be disappointed, not one car makes it around the track.

The track is easy to set up but when playing with the cars the rubber wheels would fall off and one of the cars would not even make it around the track without flying off the track very frustating for my son who soon lost interest in playing with track

I brought this also as a christmas gift for my grandson he is 9 years old. After putting it together and playing with it he said he was disappointed in the quality of it. Cars don't run as fast as he thought it would. It could be improved so cars would not stop in middle of tracks. I was disappointed too because this was on his christmas list and he wasn't happy with the results of it.

Easy to put together. very loud. Cheaply made. One out of 50 Times does a car actually make it through the track. Kids had more fun playing with the individual cars on the hard wood floors. Do Not Buy. I hate I didn't do my homework before buying this. So very disappointed.

This track is nothing special...just like the rest of them. The cars does not stay on the track at all! I feel like I have wasted more of my hard earned money on tacky toys

This, along with the Go Stunt Set, Turbo Jump Ramp Set, and Power Shift Car Multi-lanucher were purchased for my 8-year-old son as a gift. My son loved how fast the cars were launched up the loop.

But if the name of the toy and the picture on the front of cars crashing into one another on the track are supposed to be the main feature of the toy, I'd have to say it falls well short of my expectations. The vertical track was too unsteady for one car to stay on the track for even one lap unless I braced the vertical part with my hand, in which case some of the cars would make 2-3 laps before just falling off or landing on their roof. It wasn't possible to get more than one car going on the track at once. For what it's worth, I had the toy set up on a carpet floor; perhaps it would have been more successful on a harder surface, but I wouldn't count on it.

Some other observations:
1) The motor is VERY loud.
2) The set comes with stickers but no indications of where to put them; even the picture on the box doesn't show them (but it does show other stickers that were not provided with the set).
3) It is not possible to set up any track configurations other than the one shown in the picture.
4) In general, none of the Nano Speed sets are compatible with one another except for the cars; don't expect to be able to buy more track to make larger configurations.
5) The cars in and of themselves can be fun to play with without using the track.
6) The track assembles easily, however seeing the numbers on the track pieces (used to determine which piece the instructions are referring to) are difficult to see.

This set did not fulfill the expectations as stated! We tried over 100 times to get the cars to work and we managed to get one car around the track one time! The cars are lucky enough to make it to the booster and they fall off the track constantly!! This was a major disappointment ! We will be returning this product!! We definitely do not recommend this toy!!

This should be called "Nano Junk"!! This does not Fulfill the expectations!! We set up the track and tried using multiple cars and the cars would just barely make the loop and fall off the track! Only twice did we get a car to go past the booster and the car flew off the track!! We do not recommend!! This is a definite return!!!

This took me some time to set-up..definitely harder for little ones but once it's all done the kids love it...you have to be careful setting up the loops to make sure they're rightly placed... that reduces the rate of falling off the tracks. MY boys are 9,7 and 6yrs old and they have a blast with this. Both cars they came with the kit works wonderfully. Keeps them occupied for a while.
