 The 6 things WRONG with this watercolor setAug 28, 2010
By Nana Banana
1. The paints do not mix as true colors; no color learning for your child. Red and blue make mud; yellow and blue make mud; yellow and red make mud. This is because all the colors are diluted with white and other pigments and do not mix true. A cheap alternative to real paints.
2. The pans of paint are very shallow and get used up in the first use. Another super cheap trick. Your kids will get maybe 3 paintings out of this set.
3. Made in China; says non-toxic but what does that really mean in China these days?
4. Overpriced at any price.
5. Huge waste of plastic and our international shipping lanes.
6. I expect more from Melissa and Doug. Cheapens their product line.

 They're.......okayAug 26, 2010
By Kimberlee C. Chang
They look cool, the color wells are large and the color is fine. But they're not hard watercolors, they're more gel-like. They lasted two sessions with my two year olds. If you hover while your kids paint they might work for you. If, like me, you let your kids go crazy, they don't last long enough to be any kind of value, even at the extremely reduced price I paid. Go with the Crayola ones.

disappointingOct 13, 2010
By ndaimon
Not enouch paint. My daugther blew thru this in one sitting. The set said Jumbo, but very little actual paint.
Disappointing from M&D
Not Long LastingMar 28, 2011
By Lisa Longoria
The paint is relatively soft and doesn't take much water to get them ready to use. Unfortunately, my daughter went through almost the whole tray of colors in one sitting. Other watercolors I have purchased lasted a long time through many uses. I would not purchase again.
Very Disappointed -- did not meet Melissa and Doug standardsFeb 24, 2011
By artsymomma
Typically I'm a huge fan of Melissa and Doug products. However, this one disappoints. The amount of paint in this product is not at all Jumbo. I have bought other brand jumbo sets that have lasted for months. This one literally last two days. The paints are extremely shallow and are used up quickly. Very disappointing and not at all in line with the high standards usually found in Melissa and Doug products.
