My two-year old daughter chose this as her present to her brother for his seventh birthday. "Seth like that", she said in Toys'R'Us.We have one other small K'NEX kit with larger pieces, and it's great fun and very durable. The Lava Launch Coaster uses components that can only be described as miniature. If you get frustrated with anything fiddly then this is not for you! My son, although only seven years old, can just about build any Lego kit, including motorised Technic models, but this had him stumped. Admittedly it's rated for 9+ but I think this would challenge most 12 year-olds (and probably have most parents sobbing into their gin and tonic).It took me (37-year old software engineer with a passion for constructional toys and model trains) three evenings of around 2-3 hours to complete. Definitely not a toy for knocking up quickly on Christmas morning!But on the plus side, it is of excellent quality, well thought-out and designed, with a large and clear step-by-step manual. Some bits will have you scratching your head, but if you like a little challenge from your toys, and with a bit of cross-referencing to the big photo on the front of the high-quality, sturdy box you'll be OK. We really enjoyed putting it together, it was great fun! There is also an alternative design to build available for download on-line.As a bonus cats are totally mesmerised by the little car as it whizzes around the track!

Having bought most of the other large KNex models for my son, he wanted this one for his birthday in October 2011. Was extremely hard to find, luckily managed to locate one on Amazon.It is probably the best present we've ever bought him, which is why I'm writing a review. It really is a step ahead of the other Ferris Wheel or Roller Coaster models.I would really recommend this model, if you can find it, for any 10+ who has successfully built other smaller models.
