It feels far worse quality than other design and drill bolt buddy toys that we've bought. The back door doesn't stay closed meaning everything falls out the back a lot making my toddler quite frustrated.

Disappointing to hear from the recipient of my carefully chosen gift, that the drill worked for only a short time . The batteries were changed, but still does not work.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a gift for my grandsons 4th birthday! I was disappointed in the thickness of the plastic used to make this toy, especially the tailgate/ramp. Too thin and will break easily.
Perfect for my 3 year old!

After quickly showing my 3 year old how to use the drill, she caught on so fast and put the whole toy together on her own! It is very well-built and sturdy. She now takes it apart and puts it back together multiple times a day!
A fun way to work on their fine motor & building skills

We love design & drill sets and we already have the rocket ship so I knew my kids (ages 4 & 5.5) would love this recycling truck! It is big and very durable! Both of kids took turns building it by using the power drill. I love that they are working on their fine motor skills without even realizing it! The truck comes with a cute little driver and cat which also is a screwdriver! My kids favorite part is putting leftover bolts in the clear lifter and dumping it into the truck. This set is a fun way for kids to learn simple construction and engineering. This set is a fun way for kids to learn by playing. Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My toddler loves playing with toys It keeps him busy for a while. But this toy he was so interested in That he was playing for hours and I'm not exaggerating. I can see how much thought was put into making this toy that even the packaging could be used during playtime. The actual toy is very sturdy and durable. The drill is powerful enough to screw and unscrew the screws into the truck. Overall I really really love this toy son loves it a lot as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved this as a free sample for my honest review. When it came I thought my son would have a blast with it. However, the drill didn't even work. We tried different brands of brand new batteries as well as changing how we put them in and nothing got the drill to work. My son still has fun putting the screws in with one of his other screwdrivers at home though.
Lots of fun

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son truly enjoyed playing with this truck! He is 3 years old. He loves drills, and he spent hours using the drill and screwing in the screws to the different parts of the trucks. He scooped up the screws and loved dumping the screws into the back of the truck. Very engaging!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Daughter loves this toy! Even I thought It was pretty cool as an adult. My daughter loves watching me hang pictures on the wall with my drill. Its cool to be able to have a play one that's similar. All around it was a fun and kept her busy. I like how it taught her how to be patient and detailed when placing and keeping the the pieces in the correct position on the drill. It was a fun relatable and educational experience.
