Review: AWESOME - I bought this for my nephew who had just turned 9, and it ended up being one of the best gifts I've ever given. He and his 10-year-old brother tackled the entire build completely on their own, no adult assistance whatsoever They spent hours reading the instructions, working together, troubleshooting, and figuring things out as a team. This kit is challenging, but that's exactly what makes it so rewarding. It pushed their patience, reading comprehension, problem-solving, critical thinking, fine motor skills, and teamwork. Watching them encourage each other and celebrate every milestone was worth every penny. The finished pinball machine is AWESOME, adults asking for play turn.... but honestly, the building process was the real prize. In a world where so many toys provide instant gratification, this one teaches perseverance and the satisfaction of earning the final result. I'd go beyond recommending it, I honestly think every 9- to 11-year-old should build something like this. It's one of the best STEM activities I've seen for developing real-life skills while still being incredibly fun. The photos show the boys hard at work during the build, completely immersed in the project without any adult help. That says everything about how engaging this kit is. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Would absolutely buy another
Review: Beyond Thrilled - I purchased the smartivity pinball machine for my 7 year old son, who desperately wanted a pinball machine for christmas. After looking at some tabletop machines, browsing through numerous reviews, and weighing the pros and cons, I decided that the likelihood of a cheap plastic machine ending up in a landfill after only a couple of months was probable, and not aligned with my less waste goals. Upon first opening his gift, my son was surprised as I'm sure he was expecting an electric game. Once we opened up the box to begin building he was very excited to see all the components, and he couldn't wait to start building. We first made sure everything that was included came in the box and decided it would be best to leave the sheets intact until we were prompted to take the pieces from them. Now let me get to the instruction manual. If there were ever an example of what a perfect instruction manual should look like, it would be this. The directions were exceedingly clear and concise consisting of written description and coordinating pictures of the front view as well as the reverse view which was very well planned out. There was honestly not one step of the way where we were confused on what to do next. we completed the build together in two sessions that were about 1 to 2 hours each, Which I feel is a perfect amount of time to inspire anticipation in my son while not causing frustration or burnout. We're getting to the best part now. This completed pinball game is so so so much fun! my son played for 2 hours straight on the first day. On the second day he played a total of 4 hours trying out all the different techniques and variations. I have never seen him so involved and interested in anything as I saw him with this pinball machine. My teenage son's friend has been over twice this week as well, and he was drawn to the pinball machine both times playing with it for a good amount of time. I especially love the balls in the vaults for keeping your score which doubles as math practice. Overall this has by far been the best online purchase to date that I have ever made, and it has been the most enjoyable thing that I have ever taken part in building. The pinball machine is solid, high quality, and obviously very entertaining as well. If you are looking for a great gift for an engineering-minded kid, I can't recommend this pinball machine enough. Buy it!

## Features

- BUILD IT, THEN ACTUALLY PLAY IT: Most STEM kits get built once and shelved. This one becomes a real working arcade machine with spring launcher, flippers and scoring targets that gets played for months after build day.
- LEARN REAL ENGINEERING BY DOING: Assemble levers, springs and ramps and see momentum, energy transfer and mechanical advantage work in your hands.
- FOR KIDS, TEENS AND ADULTS ALIKE: A satisfying mechanical model kit for ages 8 to 99. Kids build it with a parent, teens build it solo, and adults get a genuinely absorbing screen-free project with a real payoff at the end.
- FUN FAMILY AND PARTY GAME: Once built, take turns and compete for high score. A tabletop arcade game that turns into game night entertainment for the whole family, not a toy that only one person uses.
- THE ULTIMATE BIRTHDAY GIFT: A thoughtful birthday or holiday gift for boys, girls, teens and adults who love building. Trusted by families in 33+ countries, winner of the 2022 Innovative Toy of the Year in the Netherlands and a 2022 TOTY Finalist.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing design, lots of fun
*by B***R on July 31, 2026*

I assembled this kit together with my 7-year-old grandson, who loves building STEM-type toys and Legos. At first, he was a bit overwhelmed by the large number of parts in this kit, but as the components began to come together, he grew more and more excited. When finished, the game works very well and has many clever pinball features that add to the fun and interest. The two paddles that hit the ball both move quickly & easily and are comfortable to use, thanks to padded foam handles. My grandson has had great fun playing pinball with it (quote: "I LOVE this game!"). The wooden look of the game makes it unique and interesting. ASSEMBLY: The kit itself is really an engineering marvel. There are a zillion parts, most arranged on thick wooden panels from which you push out the pieces. There are so many pieces, we panicked on a couple of occasions when we thought a piece was missing, only to find that it had rolled off the table, so using Tupperware or cups to stage the pieces in would have been helpful. The pieces fit together well and easily, with most attaching together with supplied rubber bands. There are a few spare parts left over, along with a lot of extra rubber bands. It's amazing how the small pieces slowly assembled into modules and then it all came together into the finished product. INSTRUCTIONS: The instruction book has a lot of pages, with each step in the assembly process clear and fairly easy to follow. A couple of the steps could have used better clarification, though -- for example, in 2 or 3 places you install a rubber band that just hangs there and you don't know what it's for, until later in the book you learn it finally attaches to another module, or else is used to lock down the modules for storage or transport. Another complaint is that some parts are not depicted clearly in the instructions and identifying them was confusing. For example, there are several foam parts that are bright orange in color but are shown in the book as brown; this confusion is made worse by the existence of some similarly shaped wooden pieces that *are* brown. Also, most of the wooden pieces have a number etched on them, but the instructions never referred to those numbers; you just have to match the shape to find the right piece. OTHER CONCERNS: One concern I have is that most rubber bands in my experience tend to deteriorate and break over time, so I worry that might happen with this game a couple years down the road. However, as I mentioned, there are a LOT of extra bands left over, so if you save those parts, it's likely you can fix the issue -- unless the breakage occurs in a hard-to-reach part of the assembly. SUMMARY: Overall, this was a fun kit to assemble, and my grandson was able to understand the process & instructions and actively participate in the assembly. And he has REALLY enjoyed playing with it. A great purchase.
