Not the Etch A Sketch I remember!Jan 01, 2010
By Grandma Bee
"Bee"
I bought the Etch A Sketch for my 2 year old grandson thinking he would have fun watching the lines being drawn on the screen. The Etch A Sketch I remember as a child had a strong, thick, dark line when I drew on it. I could easily tell where I was and where I wanted to go.
The line on this new Etch A Scetch is barely visible! I can hardly see it myself. My grandson was unimpressed and almost immediately lost interest. And like another reviewer mentioned, what line you do have won't shake out! What a disappointment! I should have purchased him another Savings Bond. Next time I will shop retail so I can try it out first hand.

Classic Toy - great fun!Jan 12, 2009
By Orion I was a lonely child, and we didn't have video games back then. And there were only 5 channels on the television. Really. I am telling the truth about that.
Which means there was plenty of time in my childhood to perfect utterly useless skills, like writing in cursive on an Etch A Sketch. I was good at it. I could draw perfect circles, and lacy valentine hearts, and landscapes with cows.
My kids have none of these skills. They kick my butt at video games. So I bought an Etch A Sketch in self defense. Boy, were they impressed when I whipped out a picture of Spiderman.
They will never be able to do that. None of them. They don't have the attention span it takes to learn how to control a cursor using two little wheels.
So I win at this. It may be the only thing I ever win at when playing with my kids. They do everything else better than me. But I win at this!

Poor quality, does not erase or draw well.Dec 25, 2009
By KRR Once again, they do not make toys like they used to. My daughter opened this for Christmas, and I showed her how to draw. The line barely showed up, and was hardly noticeable. Trying to keep her attention since the faint lines did not impress, I thought I could excite her by shaking it to erase...Oh but it didn't erase...maybe I need to shake it some more...maybe shake it a little harder??...Nope, it left the lines even with vigorous shaking. It is now in a return box. I will not be buying it again or asking for a replacement. I wish I still had my old Etch a Sketch to give her! I am rating the fun factor low too, because it is more frustrating than fun. If it actually worked properly, I could rate this much higher.

A timeless classicOct 18, 2008
By TLee
"Busy Mom"
Great gift - great for the car, the couch, the hospital bed . . .
wont break unless you bring it in the tub (dont do that) Not great for kids who are accustomed to video games and TV. But great for kids who know how to play without electronics.

Great Toy, but quality was horribleFeb 07, 2010
By Charles Canright My Kids love etch-a-sketch, but the two we bought were broken right out of the box. You could not see the drawings, they were too faint.
We returned them and Amazon honored the return right away.
