Toy Reviews

For many consumers, reading toy reviews is an important part of the decision making process before purchasing. The information can be gleaned at first hand from a current user, but when that’s not practical, online toy reviews such as those published here can be an invaluable source of useful and sensible advice.

Probably the most important criteria is value for money, although this depends on an individual’s own perception of what they can afford. It’s often worth spending a little more than planned if the end result is a toy that has plenty of play value and gets used more often than an inferior product.

Prospective customers will also want to know whether the item is in the correct age range for the child. If it is, does it work in the way the manufacturer claims it will? The toys that have been reviewed on this page are a mixture of hot, trendy products and those that have stood the test of time and continue to sell year after year.

Some of these toys are supplied by big manufacturers such as Hasbro, Mattel LEGO, Flair and Golden Bear. Other equally worthy toys come from smaller suppliers such as Coiledspring Games, Orchard Toys, Rainbow Designs or Posh Paws. If you prefer to search by brands or licences there’s plenty of those too including Barbie, Frozen, Meccano, Nerf or Star Wars.
