Jeanette , Rickmansworth , “we like new games.”

+ This is a great game. It's very under-rated, but my daughter loves it. It's brilliant for improving manual dexterity and speed. It's also very addictive. Speed stacks is big in America, not so much here, but it's great fun and it should have caught on here. My daughter did speed-stacking to music for a school talent show and everyone thought it was brilliant and very different. I'd recommend it to anyone.

- None that we can see.

+ Speed stacks is a fab game - lots of play value. I received it as a present - and was a wee bit unsure at the time about it, but when I finally sat down and started... I couldn' t stop! It's a great game for all ages, and you always want to beat your best time for making different stacks. I'm going to keep playing this game for a long time! I highly recommend it.

- Some of the cups crack after a lot of stacking, so pay attention to the dvd - don't smash them down on each other. I would consider buying the more expensive cups as they are a bit sturdier.

+ We've had no end of fast & furious contests since the speedstacks arrived! - they have brought tremendous pleasure to family and friends alike!

- You can't switch off the sound!!! (They can be a bit noisy at times!) - might be interesting to build into the timer-panel a function which measures time used so that, after say 10 minutes, it can display the words "time for a rest!" on the display panel! (Children don't always know when to stop!!!)

+ For a 12 set of cups it is extremely addictive! Trying to beat your own personal best - or the records of those who post their times on youtube is addictive also. Promotes eye hand co-ordination, and can be used in a variety of ways in relays, team games etc.

- The cups are built to be lightweight - but if you have heavy handed kids using them - you may find that some end up broken, chipped etc sooner than later.

- Cups tend to be a little flimsy - although light for the purpose if a smaller child (not understanding be careful) grabs hold and slams down they can crack or break, making the whole game unuseable.

- Perhaps would be nice if the box they came in could be designed so that it opened right up and everything had it's place so that it could be kept in it neatly. But I should think it would then have to be plastic instead of cardboard which would add to the cost by alot.
