This toy has been a lot of fun for my boys. They are 7 and 5 years old and have always been facinated with tornados and storms. The only thing I have noticed is that is doesn't keep their attention for too long. I dont know if it is their age or that they have many other toys taking their attention. Overall it is something I'm glad I purchased because it is neat and educational. It is much different from everything else they have and even my husband, my 4 year old daughter and myself enjoy it.

A really interesting toy. Very hard to always make a tornado without adjusting. Doesn't really do much unless it is on the fastest setting. Four year old for whom it was bought thinks it is super but gets a bit fustrated when it doesn't make the funnel and a grownup has to mess with it to get it to work.
