Great toy for building and creativity!
We bought this for our 2 year old daughter for Christmas and it is the only toy that she gets out and plays with every day. She loves it; she builds squares or just keeps putting the tubes together to make all sorts of designs. She is entertained with it for quite a while every day. The pieces ar...e very durable and easy for her to put together herself, and when she doesn't mind sharing, her 6 year old sister as well as her dad and I enjoy playing with them with her too. I definitely recommend this toy.

Made for creativity-NOT DURABILITY
I bought these for my class of preschoolers. They loved creating with them but they were made with such thin plastic, they broke so easily! I was impressed with how many pieces were included, but due to poor qulaity and breakage I ended up throwing so many away anyway! NOT impressed with the quality...! They won't withstand typical preschool handling.

These are played with often by the children. They do have a fun concept, but I found that many of the pieces do not fit snuggly enough to stay into the other pieces making it difficult to build because your connecting piece is loose and falls off. The children do really like them though.

The four way connectors are not completely hollow, so unfortunately me son can't run marbles through all of the tubes. But otherwise I think this is a useful toy. But I do not understand why this type of simple toy can't be manufactured here in the States.

When I came to this item and saw the other reviews I was in disbelief. They questioned the durability of a toy tube which had amazed me with its tensile strength* as well as repetitive usage durability**. My son got his first set as a gift from our friend. He is a Structural Engineering Consultant and his wife a Child Psychologist. We laughed because of the obvious collaboration on the purchase. But once we started playing, the family was having fun and we just found these were great. Ive bought probably 10 sets for friends and family and not a single issue. *My friend drove his 2-ton truck over a tube with no breaking **My son could break a cannonball, but he still has his first set and we've just added to it. That first set has 3 years use and interchanges fine with extra pieces to build HIGHER.

The kids really like these, unfortunately they break pretty easily. Every time they play with them two or three pieces break and the kids are just building with them, not really misusing them. A little disappointing.
