Very well designed.
Instructions are very accurate.
And an engineer... This is great fun.
Jennifer B.
Granson had fun putting it together

- Opened the box with my 6 year-old grandson and son and proceeded to build the roller coaster.
- Easy to follow instructions - the exploded views really helped.
- Took one sitting from 11:30 to 4:30 to build, I located the pieces, my grandson punched out the pieces and son put them together.
- Was surprised at how well the pieces fit together
- We talked about how well this was designed and put together.
Stanley E.
I really enjoyed putting this puzzle together, you must read the instructions carefully and make sure that you follow every step.
I will do more.
Donald P.
Wow!
I have always been fascinated by clockworks and this kit gave me a chance to build my own.
The instructions are very good and they include videos for the tricky areas. The parts are high quality laminated plywood and remove easily from their sheets. Fitment of the parts is excellent.
I made the mistake of buying only two of the roller coaster kits. I should have bought all four (fourth one free), but I'm buying them now!
Jeanne B.
We gave this to our grandson for his 6th Birthday he is having great fun building it with his Dad.
Joseph G.
As a craftsman I was intrigued by this idea. It's a fun project but challenging - takes patience and dexterity but pays off with a cool little machine. Took me a couple of days to build. It's smaller than I expected from the pictures, maybe because the metal balls are smaller than regular marbles (those won't fit the tracks). Instructions are clear (follow them, especially where gears need wax lubricant!), parts are well organized and labelled. I found that a small touch of glue in key joints helps stabilize the tracks. The action is repetitive and with small kids the novelty would wear off plus rough treatment could easily damage it. But it's a nice conversation piece and cool to look at.
Bernard R.
My son and grandson love it! It’s been hours happily putting it together, and it works fine just like in the video! Really happy with this purchase.
Quent H.
Model is about 80% complete. I'm very impressed with the precision fit of the pieces. The snug fit is tight enough to not require glue but still go together easily. I found the instructions easy to follow but I am an experienced modeler. Beginners may need to watch the online videos. I did, however, need to use a powerful magnifying glass to view some of the detail photographs. I would like to see a Harley Davison motorcycle in the near future. Quent Hudson (75 years old)
James S.
Had a lot of fun putting it together and operating it afterwards. Will be putting the climber together next. Will definitely order more.
brian s.
bought two of them, both extremely well built, and fun to build
Jeanne B.
Best assembly details I have ever seen parts fit perfectly and easy to do.
Kurt K.
Very impressed with the craftsmanship and strength of the pieces and final product once completed. It's fun and engaging for the whole family! Buying another one soon.
Rani S.
Had a very fun few hours putting this together. It is very clever. The pieces were nicely cut from good quality wood, so I had no problems with them splintering or not fitting well. To get my marble parkour to actually run once assembled took a bit of tweaking, but it runs just like the demo now. A nice kit, I highly recommend.
David B.
Completes my set of 4!!
Charles B.
These ROKR sets are superb! This was my first build and I will be back for more. I got 3 pieces in backwards and broke a couple others...easily rectified with a bit of patience and glue. I thought I had one piece that was too short to make its connection, but friends in the ROKR fan group on fb found the mistake...I hadn't fully connected previous pieces that brought everything to fit properly, as designed.
Ronald B.
Basically I’ve had a stroke that if recovering pretty well and define finger worker is good for me to do also I have macular degeneration which is hard for me to see some of the small print but I have a jewelers pair of glasses the hell but done it perked my interest in keeps my mind active sometimes I have to make more than one before I get it right of course with my handicap things don’t always work things don’t always work but that’s not the object of an estimate something that looks interesting and then if it works with me that’s annex and added plus to it but that I can get to where it looks interesting anyway and I love the love the puzzles and I also love the part where you can get replacement parts because some of these things just break on you and that shoots at all scheme so thank you very much for your creativity and your man you’re in your own and your good business practice
David P.
Shipping was very quick. Delivered in just two days. As advertised. All parts were there and it all went together as planned. Works great. I also bought the train but have not put it together yet.
Sue J.
Pictures should be more with an explanation below it instead of arrows.
Jean-Yves F.
I love tour model
Erika M.
Still working on it but love that it makes me think to get it right!
Cynthia L W.
This gave my son something to do while everyone is social distancing. He enjoyed it very much and it actually works.
Audrey M.
My son-in-law put this together. It was his Christmas gift. He sent me a picture of it working as he cranked the handle.
Howard K.
It was fun to build, I added a few braces, Motorized it with a speed control and added led lights. I also put in a wire clip I made out of a yellow paper clip. It only allows one ball at a time on the ladder. I sent you a short video but I guess you did not get it took a few minutes to load. The photo shows the motor, speed control and Led box. The battery box is on the back side. 4 AA with an off and on switch. When the ladder goes up a ball rolls in and the clip drops down between the next ball allowing only one ball to enter. It takes a few bends to get it to work but once you get it right on it never misses. I am in the process of making a Super Hero Card house for my great grandson. I will build another project when I get this one done.

Ken M.
It took me a bit of time once Christmas was over to start finding time for the construction of my Marble Run but once I got some steam going and a couple of kinks worked out, it was up and running and amazing! Now, I'm wondering about my next ROKR project.
Barry D.
Wow it blew me away when I opened the box. So well made, excellent quality. Instructions are easy to follow. The completed locomotive will look amazing. Wouldn't hesitate to buy another set.
Diane L.
My husband loved doing this project it was fun and it really works.
Bev P.
It was challenging and enjoyable. The top of the ladder needed modification in order to have the marble drop (I notched the top of the wall or the marble would not drop). I broke one of the track supports because of the odd angle to install and supported it with glue and toothpicks. The track works well with the modifications and fixes. I am looking forward to my next one.
Bob M.
lots of fun worked on it a few days
instructions were easy to follow and it works
great winter pandemic project
Linda M.
Found this excellent
Have had problems with temper sometimes
This was challenging but helped in controlling said temper
Looking to do several more
Excellent
Barbara H.
I bought four different sets for hubby as Christmas presents. He absolutely loves them!
John M.
This was my first time working with one of these wood kits. It has been a great experience and a good way to relax in this pandemic time. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. The pieces separate easily and fit together well. I am almost finished my first Roller Coaster kit and intend to order more. As a 67 year old I find it's a great way to stimulate the brain and promote manual dexterity. Thanks for a great experience!
Penny H.
Mail took a lot longer than expected around Christmas but arrived in perfect condition. My 10 year old grandson is putting together. So far, so good.
Lindsay B.
Fun to build. Great boredom buster.
Eileen S.
My son loved it! It took him about 4 hours to put together and we have both played with it. I love it. I'll be ordering more for him.
Kerri S.
Some areaS could use more support beams
None the less device is working well
Carole T.
My husband is so hard to shop for, and this kit was unique and I’m so happy I ordered it. He really enjoyed putting it together. The quality is excellent as well.
Fay M.
I really enjoyed building this model and figuring out a few different challenges. Overall, the model worked great, except for one issue with the elevator. The elevator reached to the to with the bearing, but I had to tip the platform slightly to push the bearing onto the slide. I had to add 1mm to 2 mm to the lifter in order to allow the bearing to offload on its own.
Still a fun toy!!
Thank you.
Jean Magne
Andrew S.
Great to put together and son loves to play with it.
Joan B.
Project fits well together and the directions were clear. The marbles transitioned well with optimum interest.
Susan C.
Enjoyed the journey. Very cool!
Curt F.
We bought this for my dad to build with our niece and nephew over Christmas. They had a blast building this together, and the outcome was truly amazing. Ingenious design. Would definitely recommend.
Genevieve G.
Looks great. Works great. Super fun to assemble
Éric M.
Fun to assemble, very well designed and constructed. The kid loves it!
Nadean Y.
My almost 3 year old grandson is mesmerized by turning the wheel and watching the balls roll through the run.
Mary W.
amazing craftsmanship. So impressed, I bought one for my father-in-law in hope it will keep him busy during these times.
Jeffrey S.
Great activity putting this device together and super fun operating it for family and friends.
Debra .
Fun and challenging, looking forward to doing another. Easy to follow instructions and diagrams.
Kathryn W.
We have not opened the box as it is a gift. We have had no feedback as of yet other than they think it is cool and they are working on it.
Susan k. D.
This is an extremely intricate thing to assemble. Not for any child and more for the mechanically inclined person. Some pieces are smaller than rice and require a steady hand and a focused mindset. My husband is mechanically inclined and found this to be a huge challenge. When completed it is really cool to wind and watch it function.
Dorothy W.
Fun project
This one had me hooked in about 10 seconds
Didn't stop assembly until I had it finished
Had to do a little sanding on several pieces to get them to fit and lock together but not much of an issue
Ronda K.
Hubby and son spent about 6hours putting the project together. They had a great time. (Just a note: my hubby has early dementia and this kept him well occupied.) The only thing I would say is,, it is a lot smaller than I thought it was, but the guys still had fun putting it together.
Frank D.
This was a great project! Directions were easy to follow, the parts were well marked and fit perfectly. A nice project to start, work for a while, stop and continue later.
Really enjoyed working on this and will buy another.
Gene K.
Challenging but fun to put together.
Jim B.
Very impressed with engineering and manufacturing of this product, so much so I ordered my second one!
Jody M.
I built this with my 11 year old son. I realize he's a bit younger than suggested but it's good to challenge them and he really took to it. Learned a lot about gravity and how important it is to always measure twice and cut once, as it applies to this project. I will admit as the adult I was a little surprised that in a few places very subtle little differences in pieces that were very important were almost glossed over in the instructions. It caused us to have to disassemble and redo a couple of pieces, but a good teaching moment overall. At the end of the day it looks great and works well and he's quite proud of himself and is enjoying showing off our work to family and friends.
Chris V.
Great fun building and it works great.
Kirstine C.
Loved it. Especially well done. Very easy to understand and put together. A joy.
Pamela C.
Purchased for grandson for Christmas. He was very excited! Not sure if he has put it together yet or not.
Pamela W.
My son loved it. It works perfectly!
Rachel H.
Only work on the ball roller a couple hours at a time. It is definitely a challenge.
Elizabeth M.
I am enjoying my Marble run...I have made one or two mistakes...but when I went back and reread the instructions it was entirely my fault and easily corrected. The video also was extremely valuable to insure I was on the correct path. My only recommendation would be the ability to show the video in slow motion. I have just ordered a second model
Mary L.
My sever-year-old grandson and I started the Marble Run yesterday. What a great project for the two of us together! He is so excited, and I'm enjoying working with him. We made it to step 30 in two days, so with school starting tomorrow, it will take us several more evenings. The pieces fit perfectly and the directions are very easy to follow. He punches out the pieces and keeps them in perfect order while I fit them together. I will definitely do another one as my grand children get older.
Andy S.
Everything was delivered as advertised. Complete and top quality. Construction is easy enough but takes thought and you need to follow directions.
Gina B.
These wooden projects are AMAZING!!! I bought all 4 for my son and he’s not stopped building since he opened the box up. He’s 15, so they’re not just for smaller kids, like some others. Just LOVE these!!
Janet O.
Gave this as a gift to my dad for Christmas! We've had such a wonderful time building this model together! Pieces are well made and directions are easy to follow.
Robin S.
These kits are fantastic!
Robin S.
Great quality with a challenge for young minds to learn from.
wei c.
The pieces are precisely cut. Great fun putting it together.
Kris H.
Enjoyed working with the wood. Looking forward to the next challenge!
Sarah P W.
Sometimes challenging to get the pegs to properly join pieces. Very satisfying to complete.
Jacqueline W.
My husband and sons had a wonderful time together doing this marble run. It was one of the highlights of our family time together at Christmas this year.
Terrilynn B.
My husband loves puzzles, I love rollercoasters, this was a great compromise. My husband was so impressed with the precision cutting of the pieces and that there were extra pieces for any accidents that may happen. He liked putting it together with the easy to follow directions. His birthday is coming up, I definitely want to get him another, I just have too many on a list to choose from.
Rebecca B.
Gift for my husband and he loved it! Wants a new one each year!
Mark P.
I would share a photo, but I haven't finished putting it together yet. I'm doing it little by little so that I can extend the enjoyment! The pieces are beautifully engineered, and the instruction booklet is clear and easy to follow. This is my first attempt at putting one of these models together, but it surely won't be my last.
Jon F.
I enjoyed the building it. The step by step instructions were precise. It was very rewarding experience. My wife and like to watch it work. It gives a calming effect.
Suzanne F.
My Husband loved both of his gifts.
Sheron Y.
I bought this kit for a Christmas gift and when it was opened he exclaimed I've always wanted to make one of these. I can't wait to see it when he finishes.
Chrisellen M.
My daughter and her boyfriend, both engineers, had a blast putting this together. It is really cool!
Theresa H.
Loved putting this together with my husband. Gave us a nice way to pass some time. Although I ordered him a plaque to put on it and have not got it yet.
Smaranda A.
OMG, what an amazing project for my 26yo and 8yo sons to share together! They both loved it a ton... and the result is absolutely awesome! Thank you for an afternoon of challenging fun. :)
Sheila S.
It has been difficult to put together.
Pamela J.
I bought for my friend that Broke his left leg and right heel 5 weeks ago. Laid up until at least Feb or March in a wheelchair at 66. I thought it would be great and give him something to do for a while during his days. Well it was great. So much so he started it in the morning and and got so involved he finished it by 4... so much for taking his time but he enjoyed building it completely. all smiles in his pictures to me and said it was very good quality product. Thank you for having the quality and a stand up company,
Pam, Salem NH
Barbara C.
So excited to see my carpenter husband put the roller coaster kit together for the grandsons.
Shannon Z.
Daughter had great fun and immediately started putting it together. Went together easily, her only recommendation is the smallest connecting pieces were delicate and needed a little finessing so they didn't break. She's ready to get another kit!
Tami D.
Amazing, I took my time taking 4 days to complete. Small hands helped a lot and doing the Perpetual calendar first gave me the knowledge of the instruction manual end how the wood felt in my hand. If you're looking at any of the models just do it you will not be disappointed.
Scott O.
Took me a little while, can be a bit fussy. Use the wax liberally. Make sure you follow the instructions. I had a great time putting it together.
jan p.
for the “hard to buy” loved one. made a great impression with everyone. when working on this definitely is his “get away from the world” project. best gift ever. wasn’t sure if would get here in time for christmas, but got here just in time. their site is user friendly. their customer service was great; got a response within 24 hours. professional, yet personable. i cannot say enough positive about this company and their product. they are the real deal!!
Bob M.
Was great building them the best
Patty R.
I put it together but pieces kept falling off so I took it completely apart to try again. It is hard to put pieces together. How things go together could be made more clear
John P.
It was purchased as a gift. When the puzzle is finished I’ll forward the rating to your website. Thank you,
John R. Parrette
Sarah W.
I gave this to an adult as a Christmas gift. He loved it and said it was well designed, had good directions and needed minimal sanding.
Marjorie E.
My 14 year old grandson completed it in one day without any instructions. He's so proud that he texted pictures to everyone. It's a wonderful project to keep busy during Covid AND to keep them off their phones!
kathleen l.
Very impressed. Timely delivery. Amazing organization of assembly. Thank you so much! Has kept my husband occupied for hours! *grins*
Ron L.
Fun project. It works great. I have ordered another one.
Amber P.
This was a hit with my 14 yr old son who is a lego expert. He loves to build so this was done within two days working alone. We were impressed with the design and how well it fit and operated. He did break the turn handle but it fixed just fine with super glue. Great quality! The only thing that would've made it perfect would be the metal balls slightly larger so that only one at a time would move through the working parts instead of two. All in all we were impressed with this kit.
Bob D.
marbles aren't quite rollling yet, but this has been a lovely fun project to defeat pandemic boredom and build something really fun for the grandkids. amazing how well-engineered this 3d model kit is, and the quality engineering behind it. looking forward to finishing project #1 THIS YEAR(written 12/28) and becoming a 3d modeling addict!
