I purchased this item from Smyths toy store last December as a Christmas present for my one year old. it usually retails at £29.99 but it was on offer at £14.99 which seemed like a good buy.

The toy itself is made from very sturdy plastic and feels quite well made. Ours is red and blue but there is a pink version available. The truck came with about 20 Mega Blocks which isn't really enough for a good play session but i had already purchased i big bag of blocks so this wasn't really a problem,although i may have taken it into consideration if I'd had to pay full price.
As the name suggests the truck can be used for transporting the blocks and distributing them around the house and also dumping the entire load out at any given point. The handle flips up so that it can be pulled but until my daughter figured this out she was quite happy pushing it around infront of her. when the dump truck has dumped it reveals a panel of integral blocks which can be built upon.

My daughter loves this toy and still plays with it age 2and half. It does take up quite a lot of space so we only bring it downstairs a couple of times a week which has probably sustained her interest. I don't think children tire of building blocks easily so it is a long term buy as far as toys go... My daughter has recently started to tip the blocks out and sit inside it which shows how sturdy it is.

I personally like this toy and am glad we bought it but I'm not 100% sure i would buy at full price. It has however had a lot of use.
