What owners single out
Both buyers and video reviewers cite wood quality and durability as the product's weakest point, with paint chipping and splintering being safety concerns.
In their words
“great back-to-basics toy that engages gross and fine motor skills as well as cognitive skills and problem solving. I love that it's made of wood but is still colorful and fun which keeps my baby's attention. I am laughing at these reviews... #1 on the list is complaining about having to show a toddler how to do something? smh... feel like that's the point when you're raising a child. 2nd place goe”

“This is one of the worst quality Melissa and Doug toys I’ve owned. The wood is pretty rough and seems unfinished, the blocks are soft wood and chip/splinter easily. I also find it weird that there’s odd shapes included but no circle. The square is not equal on all sides. It’s good for a puzzle but not great for teaching basic shapes which I think is an important part of a shape sorter.”
