Title: Flawed design
Product review: We were thrilled to find this for our 4 yr old son, and wanted something durable since his 2 yr old sister has a habit of destroying everything. Unfortunately, although the casing and tape themselves are sturdy, this toy is poorly designed. There is a edge on the plastic piece (not broken, just the way it was designed) where the tape comes out, and unless the tape is pulled out completely straight, the tape "catches" on this extra piece, gets twisted, and then neither pulls or retracts. A patient adult can feed it in, untwist it, and make it work again, but this is happening over and over (no matter which kid is playing with it). Too bad, because if not for this design flaw, it would have been perfect for us.
