We bought this for my 4 year old who loves Chuggington. Whilst it looks nice, it really doesn't stand up to being played with. The bit at the back to launch the train comes off at my sons every attempt to change its position, and because of the connection on the trains, they don't really launch, as they're not held to the launch button at all. The doors are fiddly to open - activated from a button which is on the inside of the door when its closed, which means a child can't press the button to open them when a train is in place behind the door. This is also the ONLY place to activate the sounds! Plus, the doors overlap when open. The features to the back of the shed are really in the way when he tries to play, and so have also come off repeatedly.
So, whilst it looks nice, I'm really dissapointed. I also ordered the circle of track which has come with Brewster and Wilson, and because of the way the curved junction has been made, we can't actually connect the 2 sets together and still have a loop for the turntable - the connection points on the curves are all the wrong way around to make it fit! The only way to link them means only one way in and out of the engine shed and so a pile of "spare" track.
I agree with a previous reviewer than the trains are fab, but I with they'd just made them to fit the wooden train sets!
