 not a problem to be had December 4, 2007

I give 3 stars for educational as it really is more a physical toy.
We haven't had a problem with it. Being that this is wooden it will swell & shrink with humidity & air conditioning, making some holes larger or smaller thus harder to hammer or too loose. Of course there may have been manufacturing flaws in some of the sets. Ours is fine. I believe the toy was designed to have different pegs hammered easier & some harder for the physical work & thinking aspect of hammering more lightly or harder. It's to make them think a little about what to do.
This is another toy that should be considered according to the child. And if you're concerned about injury if your child likes to bang on people with things, as many kids do, that's not the toy's fault. That's when the parent, guardian or supervising adult needs to step in & teach the child not to bang on people. My son does the same thing, but I tell him we do not hit people & I take the hammer (or whatever it is) away for a while.
All in all it's a good classic toy, better than plastic but yes, you may get one that's not right, like with all things, but that's easy enough to remedy; return it.

It took only one showing of how to hit the pegs with the hammer for my 13 month old to catch on. He loves to hit the pegs, pull them out and put them in, or just push it around. It is a toy that is played with daily.
Just like the one I had as a kid, but the pegs don't get stuck. August 4, 2008

Great product. High quality despite my son really pounding on it. Paint doesn't chip. Hammer solid.

The holes are the right size, and it seems to be standing up to rough use.
