Fun set but the cars are the weak point.
Very fun set that my kid loves. Simple yet entertaining. Unfortunately one of the cars stopped working after about 3 months of play. Based on other reviews it seems that is the case for other customers as well and that replacement cars are not available without buying the whole set again. That’s too bad and surprising from a quality company such as Melissa and Doug.

Car Puzzle Toy
I just played with this puzzle with my grandson, and it was extraordinary. We found all the puzzle pieces, then wound up the cars, and couldn't stop laughing. It was so funny to watch the cars race around the track, and even funnier when one car pushed another. This is a wonderful toy, has given us more than a year of enjoyment and learning.

Junk cars
Received as a gift and the cars are junk. Great idea but the wheels only turn very sporadically.

Puzzle good, cars bad
Great puzzle. Very popular with toddlers. But very poor quality cars. First the blue one broke then the other. The wind up mechanisms seem particularly vulnerable. Kids puts puzzle together then cars don't work - defeats the purpose! Tried calling the 800 number but no one in and there is no opportunity to leave a message. Come on Melissa and Doug!

Useful for therapy but the cars stopped working :/
Love this puzzle for our pediatric therapy clinic; so many kids love to watch the cars race around the track! Unfortunately, the cars have stopped working and we have so many disappointed faces now in our clinic. Hopefully Melissa and Doug can sell replacement wind-up cars without having to buy the whole puzzle again because I would love some back-ups!

Great puzzle!
Our family loves this puzzle! Please help settle a debate for us - is the spotted animal on the right side of the puzzle intended to be a leopard or a jaguar?

Good idea, poor quality
My son got this as a Christmas gift and we love the concept, but as many others have said the cars are not good quality. The blue car broke within an hour of my son playing with it. Very disappointed little boy in my house.

Fun for the little one and big one lol
Love the puzzle! Love the concept! The cars run right along the little track! The cars are hard to wind however for little ones! Even for big one’s sometimes! One of the cars got lost! Do you sell just the cars?

Cool idea, bad quality
Seeing a trend here. This puzzle seemed like such a great concept, except that the blue car stopped working almost immediately and the red car is on its way out, too. Very poor quality, and a sad toddler. Like others, this was a Christmas gift that barely lasted a month

Broken blue car
We opened it up today, played for about an hour and it was great! The two cars racing and seeing which car would get to what destination first then the blue car broke, we’re heart broken, it was such a great toy! We just need an additional car or two because now the red one is starting to slow down too. So disappointed.

Great puzzle, but cars break
We got this for our daughter as a Christmas gift and she absolutely loves it. The only problem is the blue car stopped working almost immediately and the red car is slowing down now, too.

Blue car broke..
Looks like a common issue but our blue car broke as well… we just received this toy for Christmas and it hasn't even been a month and the little blue car broke. Really disappointed because my son loves this toy.

A favorite toy until the blue car broke
Echoing what others have said, the puzzle and track are excellent. Really great. But, surprisingly for Melissa and Doug, the cars are plastic and flimsy, and no replacements are available. This puzzle was not inexpensive either. How did these little cars make it past quality control?

Fun puzzle, broken cars
My kids loved doing this puzzle, but one of the cars broke within the first few hours. And I can’t find any place to buy replacements. So disappointing!

Wonderful pictures & lots of fun until cars broke
My son adores this puzzle and as an adult I enjoy helping him build it because of the lovely illustrations. Sadly, one of the cars broke the second time we brought the puzzle out so it’s no longer as fun and I can’t find replacement cars for the track anywhere. Very disappointing!
