 Highly Creative and Playable! An instant family favorite!Dec 11, 2006
By RamblingRose
"RamblingRose"
I'm just ordering our third set of these for my daughter (8), my sons (ages 6,4,2) and my husband(an engineer). They play with them nearly constantly and the range of creations possible is nearly infinite. We are a family that enjoys construction/building toys and have dozens of different sets.. I'd say Superstructs has reigned as #1 since we got them last year.
They are less breakable than Tinker Toys (no splinters!), and hold up really well to everything but being chewed by our boxer dog, so a very sturdy and well made toy.
Great for getting children to think outside the box and a very fine multi use toy. We've seen airplanes, cars, trucks, buildings, dolls, robots, aliens, strollers, pretend hats.. you name it. The mark of a truly great toy is that it can be played with in many ways. Superstructs is such a toy.
Buy it, play with it, and enjoy!

If in doubt, buy the biggest setApr 14, 2007
By LAP
Our 3 year old has had Wedgits and Magneatos and loves those. We debated about which Superstructs set to purchase and went with the largest one which was a wise move. Superstructs were a huge hit. They are holding up well despite rough, daily use. The only improvement I would like to see is in the consruction of the container. After three months it is starting to fall apart. I would have gladly spent a bit more to get a better storage container. Other than that, they are a great toy that fosters hours of imaginative play for the entire family. We will be adding to the set soon.

 Durable through lots of kidsMay 17, 2009
By R. J. JENKINS
Some folks have had problems with durability, I have seen none. My wife does day care, and these sets have been tested by quite a few kids. No breaking of struts when taking apart as some have reported. And this is through a variety of kids.
This is a great toy. We are ordering our third set now as two sets is not enough for these kids!

Buy the biggest set you can!Dec 13, 2006
By Jewel
This toy is equally played with by my 4,6 and 8 year old (a girl). We own Lego, Playmobil, K'nex, Gears, etc. and this is one they consistently go to! We have had the set over almost a year and the kids have yet to make anything using the directions....everything is free form. Friends visiting with their 11 and 13 year old boys had just as much fun playing with it so the toy really covers a big age range starting with a 3 year old. Very durable as we haven't had a broken piece yet! My favorite toy constructed is a lawnmower.

 Fun, but very fragileJun 10, 2008
By mommy dragon
I got this for my 4-year-old boy.
He made the ferris wheel following the instruction included in the set. He was very proud of himself for such an accomplishment. However, when he tried to take it apart, the sticks started to crack at their ends. I tried it and I broke a few too. Apparently you have pull the sticks "straight" out. If you wriggle them to loosen, the sticks crack. It is not as durable as it should be.
