 Hard to clean, moves in slow motion Aug 16, 2010
By Truth Teller
My 3-year-old was initially very excited about this toy, but the newness wore off quickly.
Pros:
- Lets kids learn about the process of making things in a "factory" line
- Fun, bright colors: comes with 6 small cans of play-dough
- Moving conveyor belt adds some interest
Cons:
- Very hard to clean out all of the excess play-dough that is left in the toy after use
- The "stamper wheel" shape selector is designed in such a way that the child can't see what shape he's trying to select on the wheel. The picture gets covered up by the plastic wheel holder, so they not only can't see what shape is selected, but it's hard to tell if it's even lined up properly to stamp correctly on the assembly line.
- This toy came with the most ridiculous "security" packaging I have EVER seen on any toy. It took about 20 minutes to unpack and get it ready for play (cut ties, install batteries, etc).
- Once the initial new excitement and learning process wears off, this toy seems to move in slow motion. The conveyor belt should have adjustable speeds for when the child gets proficient at the process.
Overall:
I wouldn't buy this toy again. My child was bored with it after 1 week. I think the concept is cool, but the execution is disappointing.

Great Play-doh product! Aug 04, 2010
By SZAA
"Lover of All Things Written"
In our family, I'm the fun Aunt, who brings all the goodies for the nieces and nephews to play with! We pulled out the Play-Doh Mega Fun Factory this past weekend and most of the kids really enjoyed playing with it.
It was really easy to put together, though not so easy to get out of the box! I would definitely recommend parents putting it together first, then giving it to your children, as you'll probably spend a good 20 minutes just getting it out.
It's fairly sturdy, though an overzealous 3 year old is probably going to make a really big mess. The mechanisms are basic (small stamps press into the Play-doh and make a shape), but I did find that some of the Doh gets stuck up in the mechanics and I can see it being hard to clean.
The older children loved playing with it and found it easy to use and were off making things by themselves in just a few minutes. The conveyor belt moves via battery, which is really cool and simple to execute. The younger ones (3 and 4) were a bit perplexed and did need some help.
Overall, I really liked the toy and think it would make a great gift for the 5-7 year old set. My one major "con" is in the size of the Play-doh containers. The toy actually holds 6 containers, but they are very small and the Play-Doh doesn't go very far at all. I would highly recommend having some additional larger containers on hand.

Look at this with a child's eyes Aug 19, 2010
By MagicSkip

When I put this together, installed batteries (two "C", not included!) and set it up for my little guys, I was underwhelmed. The batteries move the conveyor belt - whoopie. It has a single press which makes a bead of Play-Doh come out, where you cut it into pieces that go onto the belt. The belt carries it under a stamper - choice of two stamping wheels, each with eight images - and then to another cutter, before falling into a small bin at the end. The six colored circles you can see in the picture are spots that hold small tubs of Play-Doh (included! though it doesn't say so on the package) - so while it looks like they might be more shaping tools/toys, they are not.
What I underestimated, though, was how much fun Play-Doh is, in itself. My boys (almost 3 and almost 5) have not had much exposure to Play-Doh before, and so the first time I got this out, they played with it continuously for three hours. That's right - THREE HOURS. I was playing with them, and I was bored with it in about 15 minutes - hence the review title - look at it with a child's eyes - they see it as more fun than an adult does!
One problem with anything Play-Doh is the color - two minutes with multiple tubs open, and you'll never have a pure color again. Oh well. The colors in this set are bright and appealing, or they were for a while before getting hopelessly blended. This set also comes with a mat, something to put down to keep your table clean, but it tore very easily.
I'll let my boys use this on the deck, so Play-Doh doesn't get ground into the carpet. They are enjoying it - which is, after all, more important than what I think.

 Mega Fun For My Kids!!! Oct 12, 2010
By Brenda
Ok, this product in my opinion is totally lame and snooze producing, but my 4 and 2 year old couldn't disagree more. It keeps their undivided attention for easily a whole hour. I have no idea why this is, but thank you Play Doh designers, your creation is very much appreciated!

Loved it! (Updated) Jul 21, 2010
By J. Dassaro
"Dassaro Imaging Photography"
Our 3 year old daughter loved this toy! She was already a fan of Play Doh and has other Play Doh toys and this new one fit right into the collection.
Compared to the other toys, this one is more advanced and simply does more (note- this will require two C batteries). Setup was a breeze (about 3 minutes). The set comes with a mat, which many parents will fully appreciate at cleanup time.
This toy kept our daughter's attention for about 70 minutes the first time. Today, she played with it for about an hour but would not let us put it away because she said she wanted to use it later (the toy stores Play Doh and can be put back into the box easily.
The one thing that bothers me is the price. Seems a little high for the toy but I am not sure if this is temporary. I would recommend this toy at the $25.00 range.
I will update this review in about one month to cover durability and whether the toy retains the interest of our daughter.
UPDATE (12/17/10)-
Well, after all this time, the toy is still a hit with my 3 year old. She still plays with it on a routine basis and the thing still works. I will recommend you clean out the toy to avoid dried play doh from slowing down the conveyor belt.
After reading some critical reviews, I have to ask what they were expecting? An industrial strength system made of titanium components? This toy remains durable after repeated use. I RECOMMEND THIS TOY HIGHLY AT THE $25.00 or less price point. Current pricing as of 12/17 makes this a deal in my book.
