## Description

From the manufacturer

Review: Good quality toy - I bought this for my son's first birthday. He enjoys playing with it. I find the quality fine despite what some may have said in their reviews. There are no chips to the wooden box of blocks and all blocks have a good even coat of paint on them. The blocks fit well through the holes they're supposed to. The lid does slide in and out easily. Some people have noted this as a criticism but I find it good as my son would struggle with a stiff lid. I've never seen it bother him that it's so easy to remove. If the blocks fall out... sure, more fun putting them back! Anyhoo... I like this and thought it was good value. The one I have has no problems and on that basis I'd recommend it.
Review: great toy - just received the cube, its light, thus great for kids, the blocks are solid. honestly after reading few reviews I did not expect much, but I was nicely surprised. my cube has a sliding wall, so I does not open unwanted, I reckon you need to be lucky to buy the right cube from a right seller, as for me its A+, can't fault it... most importantly my daughter likes it and she gets exited when blocks makes noise when pushed inside its also well designed because no blocks can go inside unless they are placed in the right hole (I tried!!!!) as some other sorters allow you to cut corners... its great value for money as I paid under £10 including postage..

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Anybody know what glue varnish and paint is used? is it all baby safe and bpa free?**
A: Sorry, no idea, you would have to contact the supplier for that information

**Q: Can any of the shapes fit through the wrong hole or is it properly designed so they have to fit through the right one?**
A: Melissa & Doug are a reputable company who specialise in wooden toys and do design their products correctly, just ensure it is genuinely a Melissa & Doug item you are purchasing ie buy from a reputable Toy retailer NOT some dodgy Chinese seller.

**Q: Hi, is this product is made from sustainable wood and therefore doesn't add to deforestation? Trying to get an answer for this thanks**
A: They are apparently made from MDF but my daughter took a chunk out of one of the blooms when teething and looks more like ply wood not MDF but all that aside she loves this stacking and colour sorting toy

**Q: I need replacement balls for this as we’ve lost a couple already. Where can I buy them please**
A: Thanks so much for your question. I am truly sorry to hear about your missing balls. I have looked all over our office since I received your message, but we do not have a Pound & Roll Tower here for me to “borrow” any balls from. We do not stock any individual replacement balls for for the Pound & Roll Tower in our inventory. I am so sorry we couldn't be of more help.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great toy
*by K***R on 12 January 2013*

just received the cube, its light, thus great for kids, the blocks are solid. honestly after reading few reviews I did not expect much, but I was nicely surprised. my cube has a sliding wall, so I does not open unwanted, I reckon you need to be lucky to buy the right cube from a right seller, as for me its A+, can't fault it... most importantly my daughter likes it and she gets exited when blocks makes noise when pushed inside its also well designed because no blocks can go inside unless they are placed in the right hole (I tried!!!!) as some other sorters allow you to cut corners... its great value for money as I paid under £10 including postage..

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent shape sorting cube
*by M***C on 22 April 2023*

Great for 3 year olds. Cover is too loosely fitted (& blutack is hardly a satisfactory solution). Box can be rattled to allow insertion of all the impressively solid & chunky wooden shapes - which I would have liked to have been itemised (i.e. parallelogram, cuboid, pentagon, hexagon, quatrefoil etc.) On balance: superb item - highly recommended.
