Rated 5 out of 5 by from Permanent favourite! We bought this set to help with creativity and fine motor skills. The set has been used extensively by my children and their friends. Its a permanent favourite which gets used not just on its own but with all our other toys. The creativity is never ending although there is an activity guide the gears are brilliant for all aged children as they each get something different out of their creations. My daughter loves to see her creations move, my son loves to see how tall he can build something. A fantastic set for groups or promoting imagination. We have created houses, planes, garages, mazes and cars. Once you have finished playing all the gears can be packed away in the robust plastic tub.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Hours of father/daughter fun My daughter is not quite three. I got her this for Christmas because she likes to build and it seemed like it would be good for fine motor skill development. So far, she has pulled this off the shelf every day. She enjoyed building towers, rearranging the gears, and figuring out why all the gears are not spinning. I have had a great time playing alongside her, making cars, towers, and different building shapes. I would have liked to have been able to have gears spin in different planes, but we are both having a great time with this set.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic! This is a great product! We bought a set about 4 years ago for our breakfast club where the children absolutely love it. I bought this set recently for our new after school club where the children are equally entertained by it. We have had numerous different creations already. It allows the children to be inquisitive and creative. Top product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 4.5 stars for this product Love the Gears, bought for my grandkids and they have all had a great time playing. Even the adults join in the fun. Three kids have played at one time with the biggest argument being not enough cranks and base. That said everyone still loves them.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Years of GREAT USE! I don't even remember where these came from but they have been in my home forever it seems. All my kids have used them (6). I am buying another set for my 4 year old she loves them but a lot have been lost over the years.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Geary Christmas This is a Christmas present for a 6 year old and I am sure he will have fun with it. However I was disappointed on looking at the parts list that it only has one crank to turn your creation

Rated 3 out of 5 by from disappointed by broken piece As this was a Christmas gift for my grandson, a little disappointed to find one of the bases that the gears attach to broken when he opened it. Otherwise, an excellent product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gears, Gears, Gears keeps kids busy. I got two buckets of Gears, Gears, Gears so that the grandchildren had enough to share among them. It keeps them entertained creating their own inventions.
