My grandson apparently had to be forceably removed from his doctor's surgery because they have this train set, so we were asked to buy it for his birthday.When he saw that in the boring box there was another box......and in that rather boring brown box.... was a CHOO CHOO, he shouted it out and jumped right up in the air twice!He loves his choo choo, even if he doesn't quite get that the train should go round the track! Backwards and forwards was fine too, and the cars go on the track. I didn't think the carraiges stayed on all that well when hooked up by magnet.The funniest thing was when my grandson perched himself on the last carraige - I think it is too small for that!

If your looking for this type of toy for your child or grandchild i think you would be very impressed with this set, its easy jigsaw like track construction is so simple to join together that most children once shown would easily assemble it.There really isn't anything i can say against it, simple..relatively safe being made from wood...we have a grandson who is nearly 2yrs old and he can assemble this on his own and plays with it for hours.If there's one thing i would criticize it would be the quality of wood used to make it...perhaps the wood could e better quality, our grandson tripped over something, fell on a section of the track and snapped the joint!,

bought this for gransons second birthday - he's had great fun with it. the day he had it another grandson age 7 was here and they both spent ages playing together with it. the track and trains/cars are very robust and i'm sure will give fun for a long while to go. grandson was puzzled that there was no "on/off" switch initially!! with so many toys being battery powered but soon realised there was as much fun to be had making his own train and car noises and making vehicles go where he wants them. i'm sure at some point we'll be buying more pieces to go with this and it will become one of the toys that endure.

Top value and excellently designed basic train set for younger children. Also has additional cars and figures included, so there's everything you could want to start playing "trains" with a curious toddler, and everything in the box is bright and robust, so stands up well to little hands. Easy assembly and magnetic links mean set-up's a doddle for youngsters, and there's a huge range of compatible add-on toys available too, so it can be updated to maintain fresh interest and provide even more play value at intervals. Would recommend this very highly if you're looking for a first train layout.

We bought this for our 2 1/2 year old who is crazy about Thomas. The Thomas wooden track sets are really expensive, but this is compatible with the Thomas wooden engines (as well as coming with everything you need to start out), so we bought the track and have bought the wooden Thomas trains individually over time. You can also use these track sets to expand on your existing wooden Thomas tracks or vice versa (at least thats what the salesman told me when we bought it), but we haven't needed to expand as yet. Our toddler loves this train set and it offers a lot of play value for the money.

Great first train set for my twin granddaughters. It is designed to grow with them (also purchased extension set) and will give them many happy hours of creative play. There are no sharp edges or easily broken parts.The product was well described and purports to be compatible with other similar wooden tracks.I have previously purchased ride-ons in the shape of zebra and giraffe from Bigjigs and the twins love them. You can also use the sides of the ride-ons as posting boxes for different shapes. Colours are good and conform to regulations.

A very reasonably priced trainset. We bought it as a 1st birthday preesnt for our little boy, we knew he was a little small but wanted something we could build on. Having shopped aorund this was the best value for money with all the included decorations such as trees, cars, houses and people. He hasn't quite grasped the track yet but he does love pushing the trains around on the floor. We also chose this one as it is compatible with other trains and sets and a fraction of the price. The quality seems just as good

fun train set! my 19 month old loves it! even though its designed for 3-8 year olds. i have kept the small pieces in the box away from him!arrived quickly but wasn't packaged very well. was just wrapped in brown paper! and the box was torn. thankfully everything was intact and nothing was broken.good for the price and its a good size. the only bad thing is the train track pieces keep coming apart. (but that maybe because of my fluffy carpet.. not sure)fun for a first train set and my son loves it! x

Adored by my grandsons of 2 and 4. You cannot go wrong in buying any of the BigJigs train sets for toddlers and upwards, even into early school years. Very easy to master fixing the track pieces together, and the trains and track are indestructible! It also is totally compatible with the tracks made by Brio....our grandsons now play with a mix of Brio and BigJigs tracks and trains. And, by the way, our Brio pieces belonged to our sons who are now in their late 30s (BigJigs not available in those days!).

I would give this 5* except when ours arrived one of the track pieces was damaged and one of the wheels on the train was stuck. However, I rang Bigjigs who, without question, sent out replacement parts which arrived a couple of days later. Manufacturing problems occur to all companies and occasionally bits get through quality control, what matters more is how that is dealt with and I have no complaints there. Now we have a perfect set and it is very good quality. My little girl loves hers!

Can't speak highly enough of this train set. Bought for 2 year old buy. Its a great set to start with which we can add to. The track and all the pieces are made of good quality wood and are very sturdy. The bright colours of the accessories are great- he uses them with this train set and also with an activity mat, so they're multi-functional. He absolutely loves the set and would play with it all day long and nothing else if he had his way! Would 100% recommend

I bought this for my grandson's 3rd birthday, it's sturdy and easy to assemble. I'm pleased with the quality of the product and have ordered a tunnel and train wash to add to the collection. My grandson loves playing with this for prolonged periods of time. It's also great that it is compatible with other makes, we ordered a Thomas train and is a perfect fit. I would highly recommend this starter set as great value and cheaper alternative to brio.

My Son had this set for his 3rd birthday and could piece it together much better then the Thomas plastic set which we had to put away for a year. Since we have added track, sheds, tunnels and bridges at birthday's and Christmas, refreshing his interest in the set. We use it with Thomas motorised trains too - lots of fun! We also added a set from a well known supermarket which was very cheap and compatable.

train set arrived very quickly....nicely made with extra figures and houses. Took at bit of time to join it up. Best on a flat floor not carpet. Was this value for money, well no..wood is wood at the end of the day and just as good ones are sold at ikea and Tesco for half the price...but having said that my grandson loved it and plays with it all the time. I was not disappointed

My son loves his train set, and so does his sister! Compatible with wooden Thomas trains and cheaper than the official Thomas tracks. Comes with some trees, people and houses. Also have a Bigjigs expansion pack and a tunnel, so lots of room for more items to expand the train set. Good quality, good price and fast delivery. Recommended.
