what age is this designed for?

I think the minimum age is 8 yrs, but it really does depends on the child's level of interest. It's not an "instant gratification" activity. The set contains a few projects that will take many hours to assemble. However, they at very fun and countless original designs can be invented depending on where your imagination takes you. :)

The box says ages "8 to 88" , probably pretty true. I got it for a 10 year old and I helped him start one of the more difficult projects. He can figure out the pictorial instructions pretty well but does need some help at times. He would be OK on his own with one of the easier projects. As for an upper age limit I think many adults would enjoy it.

This is suitable for Kids from 8. Also adults could have fun. The best way is common adventure of dad and son.

I would not purchase it for any age, because it does not work at all. But if you must, I would say 2 to 5.

Depends on their size. But it's really made for one child. Our kids could not have shared one of these after the age of 4.

I bought this for my then 2 year old daughter. She's now three and still plays with it almost every day. I'd say it is appropriate for roughly 2-4 maybe 5 years old.

It really depends on the size of your child; but I would guess between the ages of 4 to 8.

The item is designed for ages 4 and older. Adjustable for children that are 3'3" to 5'5" tall.

We purchased it for our seven year old. I would say probably 8 to 10 years old.

We purchased this for our daughter when she was 3. When I searched for recommended age a few websites said 3+. I do not have original packaging anymore so I cannot tell you for sure. Hope this helps.

I got it for my daughter when she was about 18 months. She's nearly two now and still plays with it. I'm guessing she will get tired of it by the time she is three.

I think it is perfect for a 3 year old. I got it for my granddaughter and she is 18 months; I think she will most likely use it until she is 5 or 6.

I bought it for my son he was only 2 and clearly too young to understand how to use it I would say its best for a 3 year old and up. I would say that no more than 60 lbs at a time

I gave it to my grandson who is 1 year old. He seems to enjoy it. The construction is solid and w/o sharp corners, so I do not see a problem giving it to a younger child (12 mo +)

Not surr but my 4 yr old does great with it..i would guess 3-12 or even a little older. Lots of fun for the whole family.

My son was given it for his 2nd birthday, and he loves it. I would say its age range is 12 months to 4 years old.

We bought this for our grandson. Although they wanted it he was too young for it. I would think 3 is the minimum age for this.

It says up to age 8, but I think it depends how tall/big your son is. My friends 4 year old uses it. I think realistically it's good till age 5.

I would say its for kids 2 to maybe 5 (possibly 6). Definitely not older than that. 8 years old...that is ridiculous!
