My daughter LOVED the color pencils and sketch pad that comes with this set. The crayons, however, did not survive the shipping, and those that did broke shortly afterwards with first use by my seven-year-old.

Overall, a lovely kit, but crayons are not as well crafted as rest of the kit.

My daughter received this and immediately loved it. When it broke, we went and got another one for her (exchange), but t never worked right. We tried to figure out the problem with, attempted to contact the manufacturer, but was not successful. The store told us that they couldn't exchange it again because all of the one's they had were already exchanged. She's completely heartbroken. Cheap working parts. She was very patient with it, but it just isn't made to last. A wonderful idea for a toy, but not a very good product.

The first time I bought this and found out about it, I always wanted it. Tried it out and it broke, send the receiept to the manufacturer and gave me a replacement and finally it worked, the things i dont like is that it gets jammed too many times and the yarn keeps getting stuck to one hook which can mess up the item. My sister loves using this item so ill give this 3 stars

This definitely rates as a "10" on the Christmas gift list. My daughter - who is not so crafty - was able to knit a tube scarf in less than an hour. There were some dropped stitches, but I think it was more due to user error or inattention than from the machine.

My daughter followed the instructions exactly as was spelled out (directions are very clear and easy to follow), and she had no problems with the set up. We've been having a little challenge with the flat panel, but again, I think it's because my daughter takes a lot of breaks and can't remember if she was turning clockwise or counterclockwise.

My biggest tip to share is to work slowly so you can watch the machine as it picks up each stitch. There were a few times that the yarn didn't catch, but all you have to do is push the yarn into the hook. I'd expect more if it were a professional machine, but it isn't. The knitting machine is made of plastic and will not last indefinitely, but hey, for a child's toy, it's great for the price.

It's a great confidence builder because she can make something, in a relatively short time, that she can wear. Plus with the eyelash yarn, it is very forgiving on any human error defects.
