The balls don't go down the spiral and there r no replacement balls for when the dogs get them when they don't go in the spiral. I wouldn't buy this toy personally. Also when the balls shoot out they hurt when they hit you.

Inside stopped turning after a couple uses. We have taken it apart multiple times and it works for a couple days and then stops again. Skip this and spend your money on something else.

Our ship & glow cart is perfect for our one year old granddaughter. She's into holding onto things and pushing them. The toy groceries teach, set examples of assistance and clean up. We love this cart!

Jammed way too often. One year olds are going to put other toys in the whale. You can only take it apart so many times before it’s not worth it anymore.

I gave this to my son for Christmas. The reviews weren’t great but it seemed like something he’d enjoy. It’s been over 2 months and he plays with it every day. I hear the song in my dreams. He loves it and it’s literally his favorite toy. He’s stuck his hand in it and tried as hard as possible to get himself stuck in it but the turning mechanism is soft and he hasn’t gotten hurt no matter how hard he’s tried.

Kristin A - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
We bought this toy for our 1 year old. When it works it’s very fun but it breaks constantly. The wheel just stops turning and the balls get stuck. It is not designed for the ages it recommends either. If they put the ball in the spout instead of the ramp it will destroy the toy. Extremely disappointed in the toy.

This is a very fun toy, starting around 9 months, however it does not work for long. After charging it, it does not last long and it burns through batteries. Very frustrating as every time we went to use it, it was dead.

Kesuth - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
Love the idea of this toy but our 1 year old is always putting the wrong ball or another toy into the whale’s spout. It is easy enough to take apart and remove the item but it is frustrating how many other items jam-up the toy.
