Advantages: good concept

Disadvantages: doesn't fit back together and water wheel doesn't spin round

I bought this for my son obviously to provide him more entertainment in the bath. He loves bath time and loves to play with toys in the bath and play with the water.

I thought this would be great as it can either be one long tube toy or 4 separate toys and can be swapped around a bit. However I was quite disappointed when we got to try it out that evening in the bath. The water wheel part is a waste of space as it hardly seems to go round at all and we've tried it in different orders. The pieces don't really fit back together very well once you have taken it apart the first time.

So we are basically left with 3 bits left for him to play with, but he pretty much only ever pick up the bottom piece - the octopus - to play with.

So all in all it was a disappointing purchase that is hardly ever played with as it doesn't really work!!!

Summary: Better bath toys to be found
