MindWare Q-BA-Maze 2.0 Zoom Stunt Set

I gave this product as a birthday gift to my 4 year old nephew. He is a advanced for his age (i.e., reading full sentences at age 2) so his parents have a tough time finding toys, games, books, etc. that keep his interest and challenge him. I visited the Q-BA-MAZE website and the reviews were awesome. Long story short, my nephew is in love with this product. My sister has been teaching him basic physics, math and engineering related to construction and balance. It's been more than 4 months now and he still loves this so much that he makes new creations and pulls his mom out of the shower to show her. It's wonderful. BTW, mom had some concern for him playing with marbles at the age of 4 so she withheld them at first. A week later she gave him the marbles and no problem; but remember, my nephew is advanced for his age so beware.

Forget the lego's with a set that your kid will never rebuild.My son is 6 years old and love's playing with his maze...and this add on is superb! I know initially you'll think...you're not getting much for $16. but, its good quality plastic and really takes the maze to the next level.Put it this way...do you want your kid on the iPad or watching tv? Or create something cool and think with his mind?Just get it and don't look back.

My son loves this set. It allows him to expand his mind and be creative. However, small steel ball bearings are used in the set and could be dangerous for small children. Keep an eye on you child to make sure they aren't putting them in their mouth.

We got this for our 6 year old grandson for Christmas and for the first time out of the box, we were considering sending it back as it didn't seem to be stable enough to build much of anything as the individual parts kept popping off or the structure would easily topple over. It was very frustrating. Then the little guy informed us that there are attachments on some of the pieces that slide securely onto other pieces providing a very secure attachment. What a difference it made to know this!Why this was ever made without some kind of a base to catch the cascading marbles and provide more support is hard to believe. We use flat round trays with a lip all around...the kind you get shrimp on or whatever and they work great for the purpose of keeping the marbles contained.The individual pieces are colorful and appear durable. We also got the stunt set which I would recommend as there are tubes that can attach to the structures to send the marbles into...really pretty cool.This is not your usual marble maze..,

My grandson love this addition to his marble run!

These are just awesome. Keep in mind that they sell accessory kits that go with these. I first made the mistake of buying an accessory kit not knowing that it was actually just an accessory kit. I received it, opened it up, and thought - this is it? I was a little bummed out. I then made the connection that it was an accessory kit. Please keep that in mind.Now, for the product itself. My kid loves these. You can do anything with them. My son never gets tired making different designs for mazes and then trying them out. Consider this as a fun project to do with your kids,

My kids love the Q-Ba-Maze and Zoom Stunt Set. But after only 3.5 days, both coaster tubes have a little piece broken off one end of it. My kids aren't super rough, either. Not impressed with the quality. The regular pieces have stood up to lots of use over the last year or two that we've had them, and we've had no broken pieces.

My daughter (8) love Qba maze sets! It was the only thibg on her Chritmas list. This is a great addition to any existing sets, allowing for more creative marble maze building :)

We haven't opened the box yet as we are returning it, but it looks fun. We bought this not knowing that this was an accessory to the actual Q-BA-MAZE. Not seller's fault as it was clearly specified in the item description. I just looked at the pictures and bought it without paying attention.

A great hit with my 10 year old grandson and his 12 year old sister - they were soon into making all different models of all the components they had. He was up the next morning very early to begin again. Would not hesitate to buy this again.

Easy to set up

Purchased as part of a Christmas present for one of my grandsons - expansion kit for a main kit already purchased. Good quality toy.

A big hit with our marble run loving son.
