Got this as a classroom give for my sons pre-k teacher and she loves the quality of this. It’s fun for all the kids but also teaches at the same time. The size is great and I love the ease of use for little hands. Bright bold colors. She loves this gift 10/10

Bought this for homeschooling and I love it. It's hard plastic, so it feels sturdy, but has no glass I will worry about getting broke. I like that the compartments can come off for easy wash if need be. I would definitely buy this again! Worth the money.

I purchased this to be used in a preschool rainbow rice sensory bin. It works great for that purpose, which is to encourage exploration of weights and measurements. So far it has held up well, although it is not particularly sturdy. The clear cups are prone to misalignment and falling off the groves. Overall, it’s a good value for the price and perfect for preschool.

This is a nice scale and a good size for 3 & 4 year olds. Why is there a lid? They are just going to get lost.

These are excellent for math groups and easy for my Kinder class to use! They had a great deal of fun weighing everything in the classroom!

My 4 and 7 year old kids both love playing with this scale. We got a set of Learning Resources weights (https://www.amazon.com/Hexagram-Weights-Set-LER-4292/dp/B000URFT3G/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=learning+resources+weights&qid=1600224656&sr=8-1) to go with it. Mostly I have let them figure out what they can do with it so far. First, my daughter weighed some of her small toys (Scrubby Pets animals) and used the weights to compare them. Then, they realized that the containers could hold water, so they decided to compare weights for liquids. This was just in our first week of owning the toy. Since we are doing a lot of home learning activities right now, I can see us pulling this out more when my older kid learns about measurement or just for fun as we cycle through our different science tools. Using the weights has been a great way to reinforce addition for my daughter (since to make up the weight for one Scrubby Pet she might have to add 10+10+5+1g) and for my younger child to learn the concepts of more/less or heavier/lighter. If I had one complaint, it is that the buckets on either side of the scale slip off easily and have to be put back on a lot. The plastic on the buckets is not as sturdy as it could be. However, as with all Learning Resources items I've purchased, the design is well thought out and it doesn't have more bells and whistles than needed to convey the main function and concept.

The was perfect for working on a unit about weight and measures with my 5 year old! He understood the concepts right away using the scale. He enjoyed using it and we compared the weight of LOTS of objects. The little buckets lift out easily which was great for comparing liquids. It’s very sturdy and easy to store in its box with other school supplies.

Another toy that my son had to have after playing with it at his cousin's house. I had thought about getting him a scale/balance toy but wasn't sure he'd play with it. This is the one I chose after reading all the reviews. He has really enjoyed it, too. The cups sit on the beam well and are easy to place and take off. The drawer is a little bonus as it can store little things to weigh/compare. And there are lids for the cups if you need them. I did not get anything to put in the cups (to balance) as I thought we'd have stuff around the house. And we do, but I wish now I'd gotten some counting bears or something specifically for this as sometimes his choices are less then ideal. It made of a light, hard plastic and probably would not stand up to a huge amount of abuse. But ours has been dropped on hard floors several times in the past year and is not damaged at all. So I would say it is durable if not abused. Edit to add: Two years later and this toy is still intact and has stood up to the wear-and-tear of a couple years play with an active child.

Great items for kids

Ok

I bought this for my 2 1/2 year old daughter and she loves playing with it we have had this out most days weighing different items from around the house. It is very well made and durable which is fab especially with a toddler playing with it. The scales are just the right size for a young child to play with and brightly coloured which makes it more appealing.I like the draw at the front you can fit quite a few items in there to keep things tidy which all moms will love.
