Our son loves to construct things, so we thought this toy would be great for him. He loved the Gears sets for younger kids. This set is great but is definately for the 7+ age. The gears are a little tricky to get snapped in together. He had a great time building with Dad. Before long, he'll be constructing on his own with these. Great toy at a great price.

I purchased this gear set for my 10 yo son for Christmas. He has been building with Legos, Erector sets, and such for many years and has wanted a gear set for 3 years. I was happy to find one I felt suitable for an older child. He has spent many happy hours building creations either independently or with his father. The directions, for the most part, are easy enough for a 10 yo to follow. The motor adds just bumps up the interest factor for him. This product is definitely NOT suitable for children under the age of 8. The pieces are small and take a certain dexterity to build with but it is perfect for boys through adult.

I got this for my 6 year old grandson for Christmas. He is very good at building things, but the parts on this are hard to put together. It takes some force to snap the pieces together. There are lots of things to make and hopefully as he gets older, he will be able to use it. I think the age should probably be for 8 and older. Otherwise it's a great toy.
