Great buy!!
My son loves this!!!! I bought one for him but the beads were too small and there wasn’t enough space for him to get his hands in between to move the beads. This one is big and perfect for small hands.

Great toy
I bought this for my just turned two year old grandson for Christmas, but my almost three year old grandson loved it the most. My daughter asked me to please get it for his (3 year old) birthday coming up. Classic toy that all kids love + teaches eye hand coordination and counting/ addition/ subtraction etc. Great basic toy for all ages.

Sturdy and interesting
My 2 year old daughter loves it. We have a bunch of separate spaces in our house, so we setup different toys in different areas to give her a sense of variety. This way, if she wants to switch to a new toy, she has to get up and walk to a new area. Gives her a little exercise and keeps her interested in both old AND new toys. Anyway, this toy is nice and sturdy. The bottom is a weighty chunk of wood so it stays upright when she plays with it, rather than falling over. The wire-y parts are thick, so she can't bend them, yet. The beads are wide, too, so banging other toys against them hasn't broken anything. It isn't a fancy toy, but it seems to be well made and my daughter enjoys playing with it.

Watch for chipping paint and splintering wood
The toy arrived with damage on the wood base. I’m worried about it splintering. I wiped it down before giving it to my boys to play with and paint was coming off on my wipe. They chew on everything right now and this will most definitely come off in their mouths. I’m allowing them to play with it while I’m closely monitoring them because they seem very intrigued by it. I would not recommend or repurchase.

Great Quality
It is cute and a nice size for an almost one year old. Great quality and isn't huge so it fits in our toy bin when it's time to clean up.

What a way for a child to learn about physics by experience!
I sent the Classic Toy Bead Maze to my grandson who is a year and eight months old for the holiday season.. My grandson finds real joy with the bright colors and movable beads that he can let perch or slide down by gravity.

Rough edges
2 stars because my daughter liked playing with it. No stars because the finishing on the sides is horrible. I should of trusted the other reviews that stated this. Thought mine would be different. I was wrong. The finishing this bad and rough. The paint chipped the first day it was used. Returned it. My friend has the same one she bought last year and it’s way better. Melissa & Doug need to have better quality control. This must of been a bad batch that’s been going out for awhile. Buyer beware!

Melissa and Doug - Pay attention to safety please !
Please refrain from this item. All 1-star reviews are spot on. Wood clips (red blue) are all over the play area within the first 2 hours of play. This toy is very important for a child’s development. I’m sure every child will love to play with it. But just this model is bad. The defect outweighs the utility of the toy. Working on returning it ASAP. I though that Melissa and Doug take these seriously. I see reviews from 9 months ago with same issue. How can they ignore such valued input from customers buying from reputable sites like Target.
