The media could not be loaded. My kids absolutely love playing with it. The quality is excellent, as you'd expect from Melissa & Doug – it's sturdy and well-made, able to withstand enthusiastic play. It’s about 18” tall, 15” wide and about 6” deep. Not very heavy, light enough for your child to carry themselves.I appreciate how this toy encourages interactive play. Kids get to practice sorting, matching colors, and even some basic counting skills. Loading the machine and then "buying" snacks with the play coins adds a realistic touch that they really enjoy. It's a great way to encourage imaginative role-play and social interaction, especially when they play together. You can even add alternative snacks and toys to change it up!Another big plus is that it's screen-free entertainment! In a world filled with digital distractions, it's refreshing to see my kids engaged in such a creative and hands-on activity. Cleanup is a breeze too, as all the pieces store neatly within the machine. Highly recommend this toy for any family with young children! If you can catch it on sale for prime day, it’s definitely worth the money!

Another great toy from Melissa and Doug. It’s a cute concept. It helps toddlers with simple number matching. Easy to use, sturdy, and clever. The included snacks are reversible for more variety. You could easily put in your own snacks or small toys to extend the fun.

I mean, how fun is this?!? Mellissa and Doug have thought about everything. The durability of their products is phenomenal. My kids absolutely loved playing with this vending machine. I have since turned it into a prize machine for my kids and it has been so fun! The value for your dollar is a bit pricey but I can promise you, its worth it. There was ZERO assembly which was great for this busy mom. Highly recommend!

This toy vending machine is very sturdy and comes fully assembled (yayyy!). As other reviewers have noted, it is a lot of fun! You can also put your own items into the vending machine, too. It's a fun toy that we are very glad to have, but we have noticed a couple of things:1) The blue coin gets stuck very easily. You'll need something thin to push it in all of the way. Even a piece of paper would work. The plastic credit card doesn't work because it's too short and rigid, but the little plastic bags of cookies, pretzels, or cheese work.2) Items fall off of the back of the shelves very easily. This is a design flaw that will hopefully be fixed in future versions. You should place this toy against something(we have ours against the couch) and that helps keep it stable and keep the items in place a little better.3) You don't need to match up the correct coin with the button you press. So you could put in the blue coin, but press a green button and the item would dispense. This doesn't bother us as we're using it with younger children, but it is something to consider.All in all, this toy vending machine is a good value and a lot of fun. We're glad we bought it!

Lead time on this item can be lengthy! If you are trying to fulfill a gift (as we were), plan accordingly. Even though this item arrived earlier than originally scheduled (a few days), the delivery period was several weeks. It's a very popular item.This was a birthday gift for our grandson. He loves it. It's a great tool for rewarding good behavior. And mom loves it because she can load it up with healthy drinks and snacks. Only recommendation is the slots could be a little larger to accommodate slightly bigger treats!

Not worth the price. There is very little one can do with this set. It should be a little bigger so real snacks could be placed in the slots --- otherwise, it's a pretty boring activity for our 3 1/2 year old. Good idea, not well executed. The items fall off the shelves easily, you're not required to put the money in the right slot in order to buy the item - you can just push the button. So honestly, not much learning offered from the toy.

True to size absolutely adorable can’t wait to give it to my nephew for his birthday. Easy to use. Fun learning and the color is like an actual vending machine. Worth every penny.

This is the best thing for kids! My 3 year old and 6 year old grandkids absolutely love playing with. Keeps them occupied for a long time.
