(More customer reviews)I ordered this top for my newly 2-year-old son after finding pictures of tops in numerous packs of flash cards. He had never seen a top in action, so pointing to the picture and telling him "this is a top" seemed pointless. I love that this top feels super sturdy and makes a great humming sound if you get it going properly. However, please be aware that this top and most of the Bolz tops are the "classic" type -- you have to balance them on the point, then get the crank (or whatever it is called) pumping up and down and then you let go and hope it stays up. At first, I thought they had shipped me a broken one `cause I couldn't figure it out. Plus it came with no instructions; I guess we are all supposed to know how to operate these instinctually. After messing with it for maybe five minutes, I did manage to get it going quite well. Now I love it, but there is no way my son will be able to work this on his own for a long, long time. Probably years. I vaguely remember having a top like this when I was little, which helped me get the hang of it. My son has already dreamed up a number of games that incorporate this top -- mostly seeing how many balls he can throw at it before it topples over or kicking it while it spins to see if it will stay upright. Either way, it involves me having to get it going for him. Do not buy this expecting your young child to play with it independently. You will most likely be sitting on the floor making it spin, like me, for a very long time.
