Toys and Games Reviews of Amaze-N-Marbles 60-Piece Set
Customer Review: not really made in USA; other brands are better quality
Summary: 2 Stars
The "Blocks and Marbles" set is a much higher quality than these Amaze-n Marbles. These have huge variations in the quality of wood pieces; some are really porous lightweight woods that are rough around the edges (not splintery, just porous and rough, think dried up sponge). The blocks with the holes are really rough inside. The tracks are fine, a denser smoother wood, though the wood stains are a bit muddy. The "Blocks and Marbles" sets have tight grain wood with clean cuts and smoothly sanded holes. These don't have as satisfying a clatter when the towers and tracks fall, or as nice a feel in hand. Also, the box has a sticker that says "assembled in the USA, some parts may have been made in China." Returned these and got two sets of the others instead. The shapes are generally the same and both brands are compatible with each other.
Oh yes, that's the other thing with both of these -- you need to use support blocks between the tracks so that the marbles can go through. So get the biggest set you can afford (or multiple sets).
Description of Amaze-N-Marbles 60-Piece Set
60pc. Amaze-N-Marbles
Features include:
?A maze construction set with endless combinations!
?Just use your imagination!
?Ages 5 and Up
Up and down it goes; where it'll stop, no one knows! With Amaze-N-Marbles, the visionary builder can create fantastically elaborate maze-like castles. But that's only half the fun. When the building is finished, drop a marble at one end, and watch it go twisting and turning down tunnels, leaping from one channeled block to the next, disappearing into an angled hole in a cube, only to reappear two blocks over! This 60-piece set contains many different shapes and sizes of natural-colored grooved wood blocks with safe, nontoxic finish, and 10 glass marbles. Explore the concepts of symmetry, balance, sequence, and spatial thinking, and hone organizational skills and coordination. No instructions necessary--it's all up to the builder's imagination! The sturdy 11.25-by-16-inch cardboard box with handle serves as a convenient storage and carrying container. Try it--it's truly marble-ous! --Emilie Coulter
