My 8 year old gives this a "10 out of 10!" I waited to buy this for some time because it is quite expensive. However, it has proven its worth through its durability and effectiveness! It's light and portable and my son practiced to and from school in the car. If you have a kiddo who likes fidget spinners or constantly moving and touching things, this works way better than standard flashcards. The pushing of the buttons and clicking noises satisfied these sensory seeker kids' needs while helping them memorize their multiplication facts. He quickly was awarded a "Fact Master" certificate and successfully memorized all of his facts thanks to this tutor of a machine. If you're on the fence about the price, just get it and know it'll be effective and durable enough to pass on to siblings or family and friends as well!
