About Ravensburger Gravitrax LIFTER Expansion Set
Overall Feedback:
77% positive
81% appreciated the easy assembly process, but 19% found it confusing
During the assembly process, precision and care are required.
The configurations of the toy may be frustrating for young children, but it is easy to engineer around these limitations by following the build directions included in the starter set.
83% found the components to be durable and long-lasting, but 17% experienced breakage
I have found that the extra pieces, such as the lifter and magnetic launcher, work well when following the directions.
I did not mention anything about the durability of marble-runs.
The product is not durable as all pieces are plastic and unstable. It would have been worth the money if the roller guides were metal and pieces locked together better.
85% liked the ability to customize the track
There are 3 stackable elevation tubes which make the level of ball elevation somewhat settable.
70% liked the high-quality marbles, but 30% experienced chipping issues
The product is made of all plastic and is very unstable. I thought for $50 I would get a good quality gift, but it was not the case. The roller guides are not metal and the pieces do not lock together well. It is hard to finish assembly, and one little bump can cause it to fall apart. This has been a common problem with online buying, where the product looks good in the pictures but is not as good in person.
83% liked the compact and portable design
My daughter has built a huge setup throughout the house, which shows that the marble runs are portable.
77% praised the creative track design, while 23% found it too repetitive
An app can be downloaded on tablet or phone to design tracks.
The tracks are made of thin plastic and may not be suitable for younger children. The system is complex and requires experience with marble runs to plan the marble's path, as I mentioned earlier.
I noticed that the track is unstable in the video.
