This makes an interesting addition or alternative to the traditional Spirograph: the patterns it creates are very different and it is easier to use. I haven't stopped playing with it since it came through the post (I'm a mature woman!). I recommend the addition of coloured fineliner pens and perhaps some cheap felt tips which have lighter colours than those provided; with these you can create amazing layered designs.The wheels within the frames do occasionally stick, but I've found this can be rectified by reversing direction.The reason for the loss of one star is that the designers missed a trick in not putting some markings on the frames which would allow the user to centre another wheel over the design.

I bought this for my daughter's 10th birthday as I used to love mine 30 years ago, and it's still great. As it's all in one, there isn't any cogs or pieces to loose so fits neatly away, and it makes lovely pictures too. My daughter was thrilled with the patterns it produced and found it easy to use. Some people have commented that it is stiff, but I think it's all about technique / practise - also use a roller ball or biro rather than felt tips. As an age guide, my ten year old could do it no problems, seven year old found it a little difficult to do but just needed a little practise, and my pre-schooler four year old found it too fiddly.

I had a Spirograph as a child and loved it. I was recently working in a school with some year 5 children and this was in there "wet play" box of toys/games. It was always used by both girls and boys. The unit has four sealed spiros in it. Place your pen in your chosen shape and gently rotate with your pen/pencil to produce an amazing pattern. As the spiros are fixed there are no lose bits to get lost and loads of variations. I bought these for my two nieces for Christmas age 7 and 9years and they loved it. Makes beautiful patterns and great for fine motor skills. Fantastic gift for children and adults.

I ordered this after reading mixed reviews of the other Spirographs on the market. It is well made and I like the fact that the pattern inserts are fixed, as my grand daughter is not good at remembering to pack things away. There are lots of pattern options and she was delighted with it. It comes with a few basic pens but bought a pack of glittery gel pens in a local shop and this was a good decision. Easy to use after a little practice.

Arrived very quickly. It was just like the one my daughter had many years ago, and we still have. However I wanted to get my two granddaughters their own to use. My only criticism is that the wheels are a bit stiff, and my one granddaughter was getting a little frustrated. However I worked it round a bit and it seems to loosen up. I am sure it will become looser on use.

This has proved popular with our 4 and 6 year old grandchildren. They do need a bit of help holding it down so it doesn't move whilst they are using it. The pens provided are too thick and the paper provided is ridiculously thin, meaning holes easily appear when drawing

Bought this for my 9 year old daughters birthday. She loved it so do I, her 14 year old sister and 7 year old brother! Easy to use and good value for money. She's made birthday cards for friends and family. Highly recommend.

Good quality and tonnes of fun drawing all the shapes - plus you can go off the given instructions and only your imagination is the limit what you can do with this great drawing set.

Really good set, plenty of choice for different patterns BUT the wheels stick a lot and it is frustrating when you have almost done a pattern to have it refuse to move.

My 7 year old niece loved it! Unlike the original Spirograph you don't have to hold the inner piece in place so it is much easier to use and the patterns are great.

This is part of my Christmas shopping as I like to make an early start I am sure that my grand daughter will love this as she loves drawing and being creative.

Keeps my wife quiet for hours on rainy Sundays. :)Decent quality and lots of options, an intriguing variation on the standard Spirograph.

Bought as a gift not used it myself but I'm assured it is every bit as good as the game I remember playing as a child.

My 7yr old loves this. Can do lots of designs. Although a little stiff to begin with, it loosens over time. Good buy.

My daughter had hours of fun with this, just as I did when I was a child. The old ones are the best!
