Melissa & Doug Figure Eight Train Set

As it arrived yesterday I can't say enithing about durability, but fit to our brio and IKEA collection perfectly. It is better crafted as IKEA and as nice as Brio.. We love it and will order more for sure.

We got this for my 2-year-old train-loving daughter last Christmas, and it's become her favorite toy. The rails are sturdy - much sturdier than the plastic sets - and easy for little hands to manipulate. It's the perfect introduction set, as it's a simple design, but it's just enough track to cover a coffee table and fit several trains at once. (And there are enough rails to make a few different configurations if your little one tires of the figure-8 setup.) The wooden rails themselves are a standard size, so all the Thomas & Friends wooden track accessories and trains she had fit perfectly. (We've since added Toby's Windmill and the Track Signal to the set.) In fact, the only complaint I have is that the little red train and caboose that come with the set don't stay on the rails very well. They derail just about every time my daughter sends them down the bridge, but the Thomas trains seem to have larger wheels that help keep them on track. Regardless, you won't find a better starter set for a child who has an interest in trains - it's just the right size and price, and it's flexible enough that if your child really enjoys it, you can always buy new items/rails to expand it. I highly recommend it for any train-loving toddler.

Lovely set. Received on time and it's great to play with. My child loved it.

Perfecto para los niños, de buen tamaño y entretenido de armar
