This was a gift for my son who will be three at the end of the year. He LOVES it!! Plays with it every day. Vest is easy for toddlers and preschools to take on and off unassisted. Goggle are just loose enough not to leave a mark, but tight enough to stay on. The little hat is slightly big on my son, but a stuck a wsh rag in the side between the hat and the adjuster and it fits perfectly. Little pockets hold the tools perfectly and are easy for a child to put in and take out. Love the fact the vest is machine washable, as my son has a lo of allergies and I need things that can be washed often in HOT. He fixes any and everything you can think of. He is constantly asking what he can fix next or build next. Built me a nice new house after breakfast. The saw will actually cut a cardboard box, even though it is not sharp like a real tool. He gets a giant kick out of that. Hats off to Melissa and Doug. This one is a winner.

My 3-year old son really likes this construction worker play set. The vest is very authentic. Everything seems to be pretty well-made and durable. The only drawback is the pockets in the vest are not deep enough to hold the hammer or saw, hence 4 stars and not 5 stars.

I bought these trucks because my 2 year old son is obsessed with contruction trucks and I needed a “surprise treat” for our long vacation drive. Needless to say – I have only given him 3 of the 8 trucks since his attention is captured for so long with each one of them. I literally gave him the cement mixer this weekend to “convince” him to get his haircut. And it worked!! They are great small toys – can hide them in your purse/pocket/diaper bag so they are easy to carry and access when needed. Plus they have fun interactive parts – the forklift really lifts up, the cement mixer tumbler really turns ….they are just fun. Its a present that keeps on giving…since I can space out how quickly I hand out the next one. Please note there are small parts to the toys that do come off, but they are pretty durable and tons of fun.

I wish I had listened to the other reviewer before I purchased these for my son. When that reviewer said they were cheap, I thought, well, I only need them for a weekend, a special occasion, I’ll get them anyway. Believe it or not, these items broke coming out of the box! It took not even two seconds for each item to break almost as soon as it was played with. Beyond worthless.

This set is very cheap and anyone who has a boy who is even mildly rough on toys will be disappointed with this item. The parts are very cheap, flimsy plastic and even the metal parts are not very sturdy. You would be better off even purchasing Matchbox or other more inexpensive brands if you don’t want your child frustrated by broken machines. My two year old does love the variety of the set, but sadly they will not last. If I saw this in the store I would not have bought, the poor quality does not compare to the price.

We love the size of these little vehicles, but the star in the set, the crane, doesn’t work very well. It seems poorly designed in that the crane doesn’t reach down far enough to actually hook on to any other vehicles or anything at ground level. The pulley mechanism works, but doesn’t have a very long cable/string to move so it really doesn’t do much. This is a big source of ongoing frustration for my almost 3 year old.
The other two vehicles in the set or fine, but he doesn’t play with them very much.
I recommend the other Plan Toys construction set, with the very cool excavator, over this one. The excavator is worth more than the price of the entire set, in our opinion. You can skip this one. Or perhaps you can figure out how to modify the crane with a longer string?

My toddler likes this set a lot. Blocks, people, and small animals get moved around a lot. There is a lot of detail for such a small set. The crane doesn’t have a huge amount of function but I wasn’t really expecting it to at this size. However, it is well balanced and so if you attach something it won’t tip over. My husband wrapped a rubber band around the logs from the PT Logging Truck and the crane holds those easily now. My son was DELIGHTED with this.

Review by Revcat

This is a great toy for preschool kids. I was afraid it looked a little babyish but they didn’t notice and probably won’t for at least another year or so. Any child old enough to push a car around on the floor can enjoy this toy. It doesn’t take any skill to hook them together, it’s just fun. Don’t know how educational it is as we didn’t discuss magnets. I’m not sure that is part of the preschool agenda.
I bought this trio and also the emergency vehicle trio by the same maker; for some reason my grandkids prefer the construction trio. Don’t really know why, but it doesn’t matter as it will more than likely vary from child to child. Most kids this age enjoy hooking things together so I knew this would be a hit with at least one of the triplets, actually 2 out of 3 love it. The other little guy prefers to play with sticks, stones, and butterflies out in the yard
ETA: Manufacturer suggests ages 3 and up due to choking problems which would only happen if the toy is dismantled. So far it seems pretty sturdy.
