This was so fun to put together. I would definitely purchase this or a similar one from Rokr again!!! There were a few pieces that were a bit difficult to get out of the wood sheets, but if you were careful, they came out without breaking. This took me about 4-5 hours to assemble. Great product!
I've purchased all 4 marble runs Rokr made. This one I painted as I assembled it. My grandson loves it.
Amazing and super fun to build!!!! Only feedback is I wish there was a second piece at the bottom of the run (piece E22, pictured) to make the end taller. The reason why is if you use all the marbles included sometimes they jump off right there. No major issue, just annoying.
This was a great gift to get the kid off the screen. We spend hours assembling this together. After completing it, we left it on the desk and he can crank it whenever he is bored.
I gave this to my brother-in law for Xmas. He started on it the day after he got home & finished it by the next day. He said he really enjoyed putting it together. Playing with it was a bonus.
Bought for 10 year old. He loved putting it together and was about 6 -7 hours of challenge and fun. Running the marbles once assembled is limited however. The light wood pieces break and lose their connections fairly quickly. We started using glue to keep some pieces together, but just not really built to last. Maybe next gen. will be better..Looks great on a shelf.
Hesitated on buying this for our 9 year-old given the age recommendations, but he completed the task with ease and without any assistance. Well done ROKR.
I'm into building things, retired. I sat down after breakfast and had at it. Three hours and 45 minutes of very low-stress enjoyment later, I had a completed gadget.
My review is for the “marble squad” version of the kit.This is a complex kit that works surprisingly well for something with 8 metal pieces and hundred of plywood bits.The design is very thoughtful and a lot of work went in to designing something that’s difficult build wrong:* every piece has its pet number etched *on* the part so you can identify it even if you pop it out too early* all identical pieces have the same part number making it easy to keep parts sorted* lots of pieces either can’t fit when flipped over, or are symmetrical so it doesn’t matter* subgroups have little labels etched on them so they’re easy to identify when you need them* the smallest pieces, the tiny pegs, all have spares includedMy few minor tips:* the laser cut wood can be harder to pop out with your fingers, an exacto knife might be useful here* the included tool can be used to slip the little plastic fairings on the steel shaft. Otherwise this step is quite difficult!* use the included wax liberally every step where it’s indicated on the instructions!*dont worry too much if the gearing doesn’t look perfectly true in the first stages of assembly, the whole thing gets more rigid once it’s completed and the stair stepper particularly feels quite janky until the bottom pieces go in. It’s a really lovely kit, I’ll definitely try another ROKR kit in the near future
Overall a great present or gift to yourself if you enjoy trinkets and assemblies. The overall quality of the product is for the most part great other than when putting the track pieces together at the end. You are required to fit small extensions into holes in the track and the extensions are prone to breaking. Technically there is no glue required but I would still recommend it.
A fun project!!!
Really enjoyed putting this together as it required close attention to detail a lot of the steps. All through the instructions ,there was videos one could see if you were doing it right. I plan on doing some more of these models.
Easier to assemble than it looks. Just a little issue with getting parts to set where they need to be. Marbles need a little help to roll because I couldn't get some parts of the base all the way down.
We bought this for my 11y daughter who asked for it for the holidays. It was really fun for her and I to put together and she loves it. Some of the pieces are hard to get out so make sure you use the tools it comes with.
This is my twelfth wooden puzzle project and I just ordered my thirteenth. From different company's. These are excellent winter projects. I particularly like these marble mazes. This is my third of these and I have motorized them. They are entertaining to watch. These puzzles can be quite challenging at times. Just be patient and take your time there is much enjoyment to be had. I have gotten these for my last three birthdays and I look forward to them. I am sixty-seven years old and eight years retired.
Buy yourself some wood glue when you buy this. Pieces don’t pop out as easily as in other 3D wooden puzzles. Other than that, a truly fabulous project.
My sons received a bunch of these puzzles for Christmas, and they love them. A large LEGO set usually only takes them an hour or two to put together. These took a little bit longer. They’ve already asked for more!!
