Easy for baby to use and phthalate-free
By Quinn Little
We bought this for our 11 month old son. I put a ball in the top area and he watched it fall with great interest. He was able to put the ball in himself immediately after watching me do it the first time. The item comes in 5 pieces which you just stack on top of one another in whatever color pattern you chose. They come apart easily, so this might become a game my son also enjoys. It comes with 3 balls that have beads inside and jingle. They roll so easy all over carpet and flooring that alone they are super fun, too. I recommend this for ages 9 months and up. A 9 month old may not be able to play with it alone for it's intended purpose, but would certainly enjoy watching an adult put the balls in and watch them fall as well as play with the balls alone. I purchased this specifically because it has no harmful phthalates (phthalate-free). We typically by wooden and other non-toxic toys so I feel really good about this purchase.

NOT SAFE!!! REPORTING PRODUCT TO CPSC
By Jen
Please do not buy this product! The balls to this product are big enough not to go down a child's throat, but small enough to fit the whole ball in their mouth...barely. Within 5 min my 9 mo old had the entire ball shoved in his mouth and could not get it out. It was in so tight I couldn't get my finger in to get it out. Tongue was pushed back into his throat and I had to push on the ball on the outside of his cheeks (very hard) to get it out. It hit his gums on the way out and he screamed like crazy. Even though this could not go down his throat, it could've very well blocked his airway and caused him not be able to breathe. I will be reporting this to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, but PLEASE do not buy this product...it was a terrible scare to have happen on Christmas morning!

By Kate T
I ordered the Earlyears Busy Ball Drop and received an "Earlyears" Busy Ball Drop. The toy I received had only four tiers, instead of the advertised five. The balls were two lightweight, hollow, cheap plastic balls with nothing inside them, not the three "heavy duty" acrylic balls with spiral design and rattles inside. The printed box was clearly labeled "Playgo Toys", and the original UPC bar code had been covered up with another bar code sticker with "Earlyears Busy Ball Drop" printed on it. The toy wasn't worth $10, let alone the $19.99 I paid for it, and has already been returned for a refund. I am disappointed to have received an inferior knockoff, and also surprised, since the order was fulfilled by Amazon. Amazon, what happened? (Updated: Seller was Kandycares)
Product Description
5 tier colorful busy ball drop will mesmerize your child for hours as the 3 whirly, swirly balls race down the tower shoot. Encourages repeated play, tower easily builds up and breaks down in a snap. Heavy duty acylic balls containing beads rattle when rolled or dropped.
