Customer Reviews

Terrible Disappointment -- parts don't fit
My son (almost 8) and my husband (an engineer) sat down to put this together. Many of the holes were either drilled too small or, even worse, drilled in the WRONG PLACE. Some pieces are cut the wrong size and just don't fit!! What a terrible WASTE OF MONEY. There is no way to make it work without major drilling and sanding and then re-painting.

My son is so disappointed -- he was really looking forward to putting this together.

hard to assemble
I purchased this for my nephew and my father assembled it. He complained that the toy was difficult to put together due to screws not fitting well and predrilled holes not accurately cut. My nephew loves it and my sister likes the looks of it. He loves the moving parts! I would advise that you assemble it for the child before giving so they don't have to wait!

a MAJOR disappointment!
I'm normally a big fan of Melissa and Doug products, but I can't believe I spent a single dollar on this toy. This is an assemble-it-yourself item, which is fine except...many of the holes did NOT match up (some were up to a HALF INCH off and looked as if a 3-year-old had drilled them). When I say drill, I mean that loosely, because some of the holes weren't even drilled all the way through. The showpiece of this toy is the fire truck ladder, but the ladder did NOT fit into the ladder holder...because the holes for the holder were drilled on the WRONG side of the truck! The only way to fix all the hole problems would be to take a power drill to it, but the wood is extremely soft, so you may end up shattering it. This is the worst quality control I've seen in a looooong time.
