Customer Reviews

good addition to Thomas wooden railway
I bought this product for my nephew who is 4. He absolutely loved it and it was a great addition to his set. It makes noise and has a few lights which makes it more interesting for him. It is also more durable than some of the other "sights and sounds" pieces. I hadn't had much experience with the Thomas the Train wooden set, but this piece was wonderful.

Good,... but not really "wood"
Well, overall my child likes this toy. However, the one thing I don't like, (and I think is false advertising or at least disingenuous), is that it is not solid wood. It is made out of sawdust particle board. Which, if it gets wet (it hasn't yet, but if a child puts it in their mouth..) it begins to come apart.

The point of Thomas wooden toys is that they're supposed to be made out of solid wood.
Even the older toys sometimes had particle board, but they were mostly wood. Then, plastic started being used more and more, but at least there was some solid wood.

This deluxe fire station has almost no solid wood at all. Almost all plastic and sawdust board.

Disappointing for the adult.

But, my child loves it so,....

Not what I expected!
Guess I missed the deminsions when I viewed the product. It was a lot smaller than I expected. The little doors get popped off all the time too. I finally just left them off. It's cute and the boys love to play with it, but I think it's a little high priced just because it has a few flashing lights and whistles. I would recommend something a little less gadgety for the younger children.
