Bought mine before Christmas, 2013. It's April, 2015, and it works just fine. No problems.

First Panasonic model lasted for over 5 years until my son overheated something and the plastic rotating "thingy" that turns the glass turntable melted. Bought larger Panasonic Genius (Model VN-H965BFX) in February, 2012, expecting the same reliability & life. But after only 1 year the door would no longer close. Out of warranty, couldn

Mine started to breakdown before one year and was complete toast by about a 13 months

I have been married for 34 years. My second Panasonic Genius just died a couple months ago. That's why I buy them.

I calculate the monthly cost for this item was around $24.00 a month for the less than 11 months it functioned before it blew out.So if you buy one just imagine you are only renting it. That way when it dies an early death so you won't feel so "put out" at have made such a lousy purchase decision.

We thought ours was dying until we read a question about the door latches being the issue (I had to slam the door shut to get it started). If i'ts a bit hard, spray the outside hooks holes with a lubricant and work the hooks up and down a bit to allow it to penetrate the mechanism. Did it with a lubricant (not silicone). Our 3-yr-old microwave is working like a charm again: no need to slam the door anymore!

Depands. Is it a 'knows-how-to-be-safe-around-lasers' twelve year old, or a 'how-dangerous-can-I-be' twelve year old? This is not really a toy, but a serious tool.

Any age is good with supervision. I would suggest 10 and over with minimal supervision .

You don't say how old, but if any more growth expected 26, most riders like 26 after about 12 or 13 in our family. Eventually they all rode the 26'a

I would suggest 18 to be safe but 20 may also be okay for your height. 16 would probably be too low for you.

our 6 and 8 year old boys love it....along with kids in the neighborhood. I would say min age around 5 depending on their height and ability to reach the bar with their feet. Max age probably around 12 - 14...

I think it depends on the child. Our daughter was 6 when we got hers, but I'm sure she would have been fine earlier. I agree with the other response, not sure I'd go much below 4 years.

I would say at least 4/5 years old. I got this bed for my 7 yr old, I needed a space saver as well. Its not very high but I would not recommend for a young child who may not comprehend they can fall out of the bed. Hope this helps.

I would say 8 - 12 years, but of course kids differ. Braam. Have a nice day

Very little. My 85 year old mother does not have a lot of strength and has no real problem.

Ages 18 years and over is OK to use. Less than 18 years - talk to your doctor first

No, definitely not too old. My son is two years and two months, measures 36 inches, and still can't fully reach both legs down. He can rock however and loves it.

Hey, my opinion is between ages 3-8 is a good age ranage for this toy. My 3 year old son loved it but for older kids who like to pretend fixing stuff it will do just fine.

ages between 11-17 is what I suggest. My son is 16 and really enjoyed building this model. He gave it great detail while painting...

The box says 1 1/2-5. My son is almost 2 and should get at least 3 more years out of it.

Probably 20 or so. I can't remember. There should be an image with the nutrition facts.

7-10 year olds, I'd say. I bought them last yr. for a relative who was seven. He still loves teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles now that he's 8
