submitted by APJG - 3 years ago
  • A: This is designed for kids to be able to use and make clay pottery. It is smaller than a professional pottery wheel but will still work for sculpting clay. Thank you

  • A: as a professional potter, toy wheels never have enough weight or torque to actually work properly. better to use the $50 for a one time class with a real pottery wheel, it will be more fun

    Fun kids pottery kit

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Toys pottery was very fun for my 9 year old! . Worked great and very much fun for that age. I definitely bought it again for gifting option for others.. may be a mess for younger kids but fun for the age appropriate. I even as a parent had lots of fun.

    Cute, but could probably do without

    The wheel spins but if you put any sort of pressure on the clay, the wheel stops spinning. It's definitely not a professional wheel, but I think it does ok for the $40 price point. My daughter (8) loves it, but honestly we could probably get the same creation without the wheel - just buy air dry clay and use lots of water to mold. I think this adds a little extra fun, but I probably wouldn't recommend or buy another. Cute concept!

    Fun set

    This was a gift to my daughter. It is a really neat product that allows children and adults to experience an element of art that you normally wouldn’t get to do at home. We enjoyed doing it together. It takes some time and patience and an adult does need to constantly supervise. Also, I do not recommend doing this indoors as the wet clay splattered in a thousand specks on the chair, countertop and floor and there’s not a realistic way to protect any area within 6-10ft. Just be prepared to do this activity outdoors if possible.

    It needs improvement.

    Beautiful concept, my son wanted to put his pottery lessons into practice, so we gave him this as a birthday present. He spent the whole afternoon trying to enjoy his gift, but the clay was difficult to work with and the motor is weak, as other reviews have mentioned. I thought they had just been unlucky and decided to give it a try ourselves. It disappointed us.

    Beginner fun

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] it’s a fun, entry-level pottery kit that can spark creativity for kids (and beginners) by letting them play around with clay, shape small vessels, and decorate projects in a contained, mess-friendly package — but it’s really more “toy” than real pottery gear. The wheel often lacks enough motor power or torque to properly spin once you apply pressure with clay, so many users report that it stalls, slows or doesn’t turn at all under even light pressure.  In short: it’s fine for light, playful clay play and arts-and-crafts use (especially for kids), but you shouldn’t expect it to perform anything like a studio pottery wheel — it’s not ideal if you want to make functional pottery or learn “real” wheel-throwing technique.

    Nice beginner wheel

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall this is a nice little potters wheel for a kid. It’s not all that messy and has a nice weight. It is like most other kids potters wheel and could use a bit more power but overall it has a good output and control.

    Artistic

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter has absolutely loved this. From the moment we set it up, she was completely focused, shaping and molding the clay with so much excitement. The wheel was easy for her to control, and she quickly got the hang of it. She ended up making the cutest little pottery vase and she is so proud of her creation! I loved seeing her creativity come to life and how much fun she had experimenting. It’s a fantastic, hands on toy that really inspires imagination and artistic confidence.

    Fun, enjoyable activity for kids ages 5 and up

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The toy pottery Wheel set is great for kids 5 and up, especially for those who are into clay or play dough modeling. My 6 year old was very exited to try the clay wheel. It does take some practice to make a clay pot, but the process is fun. It is also good for fine motor skill development. And honesty, it is just a fun activity to do with your kid. We enjoyed spending time over clay modeling.
