We were very disappointed with this toy. It was my son's gift from Santa. My husband was setting it up for him and it was broken right out of the box. My son didn't get to play with it a single time. Thankfully Santa felt badly and came back with two gifts New Year's Day

Very cool toy
Whole family loved it! It’s a great toy for ALL ages. My daughter practices her motor skills…she’s 3 and my husband loves adding different items to try to grab. It’s a great toy but I think it’s overly priced. It’s a cool toy if you will be using it often but u fear it’s a toy that will get put away and not get used…thinking of adding candy and getting a snack everyday using it. I hope the claw can handle being used often and not break over time.

Fun!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a fun toy for my 6 year old. He even added his toys to it! Fun and easy to use. Would make a great birthday or Christmas gift for sure. It was lightweight and safe for children. The sound and lights were not too much.

Don't buy
Got this for Christmas and the claw wouldn’t go up/down. Exchanged for another and claw won’t move back. Really bad quality

Broken chain
Chain inside came broken. Kid opened it on Christmas and we threw out the packaging before realizing it was broken. Target won’t let me return it even though it is broken.

Broke after 2 uses
Broke after my 6 year old used it twice. Regular usage and the claw broke and stopped opening and closing.

Love this little claw machine
I purchased this toy as a gift for each of my boys. Let me start with the music is nice and not as irritating as some other toys 😝. My boys play with it all day! They absolutely enjoy it to the max. Highly recommend for small kids! Keeps them busy for hours

Cute, but chain was broken on one side upon purchase- making the claw inoperable.

Malfuctioning Machine - Double Dud!
Do not buy. We purchased this as a Christmas present. After opening, we discovered the chain for the claw was broken. Target immediately helped by shipping a replacement. However, the replacement did not prove any better. One of the access screw is stripped and the claw chain barely works and keeps malfunctioning. I guess the replacement “works”. I don’t write reviews often; it feels like the FAO quality is just not the same. We are very disappointed and I’d hate to see this happen to another buyer/child.

A great buy
I like the plush toys. The game is well made. Very real interaction like the larger arcade. My granddaughter loved it! She had a very small, cheap version that didn’t work at all and asked for a bigger one she saw in an ad paper at different store. Once I saw this one I knew this was it when I saw the name Fao Schwarz. This is a quality brand. I highly recommend.

Would not recommend
I wanted to love this! My kids were so excited when they opened this on Christmas and couldn’t wait to play with this. My daughter is 9 and figured out that the issue is that any time the chain twists the claw simply does not work which is almost every time. This is quite frustrating and the youngest (7) was so upset by this. Overall was not what I expected from this brand. I hoped for better quality and something actually functional. After one day of use would not work at all

This was a very cute item but Unfortunately very poorly made, 2 days after playing with it, the cord that holds the claw broke, making it completely unusable. very disappointing since the item wasn't very cheap.
