A little fiddly, but good fun
Bought for a 6 year old. Possibly a bit young, so required a fair bit of help. Having said that it was fun to put together and works well.

Great item
Great product with lots of hours of building. Kids loved it and passed a very wet afternoon just making up the Ferris wheel. Still more hours left of building. Very reasonably priced and fast delivery.

Brilliant Toy for Kids to Motivate Them
The K'NEX Thrill Rides 3-in-1 Classic Amusement Park Building Set is a brilliant present for children who like to spend hours building things and working out problems. This set is particularly good because when they can build the first item, see it in action and play with it for as long as they want, and then they can break it up and build the second item and do the same leading them to the third item. My some then picked his favourite item which was the fist one built and that meant that he got to use the K'Nex set 4 times as opposed to Lego (which he also loves) just the once.I also think that K'Nex makes kids think a bit more about structures, building, engineering and technical areas. Very worthwhile buy.

Son loved it
My 5 year old loved this. Instructions are easy to follow. He was able to build almost the whole thing by himself. Spent hours quite content working on this.The ferris wheel is huge when built. Problem is he now doesn't want to take it apart and I'm not sure what to do with it!!Can build two other structures but the instructions for these aren't included in the pack and so have to be downloaded.

Frustrating!
This review is from my 8 year old son who is a builder and inventor!First, I found the track to be very flimsy. The instructions would be better if there was more writing as the pictures did not show the construction in detail. Once I constructed the roller coaster the chain clicks as it slips...I made adjustments to the chain but it still did not work.I do not recommend this set as it is very flimsy and frustrating. I will be using the parts to construct my own design as the motor will be handy.

Made for an excellent club fair display
The media could not be loaded. I bought this to draw some eyes to my theme park club at a college club fair. I cut out a piece of plywood to make a solid base and ziptied the coaster to it. It definitely worked to get a lot of people to come over and listen to our spiel. The instructions were easy to follow and the setup is pretty sturdy. Definitely beats out the crappy knock-off lego model we used to have.

Excelente
Me encanto el tamaño de la rueda de la fortuna, más grande de lo que esperaba, muy entendible el instructivo, solamente sugeriría añadir piezas extras ya que si tiene a romperse algunas piezas

The engine/motor does not work properly
The media could not be loaded. It seems the motor/engine does not work peoperly as it seems fails and feels like it is stucked and make strong Sounds when it starts to moving, The engine makes grinding noises and stops moving.
