Well I bought it for a birthday present for my wife’s grandson and I was hoping to get some fun out of them but one of the two came broken in the package and the other one was ok so got some use out of it until it broke

These are great. Yes, they are a bit flimsy and easy to break. They are balsa wood! They have always been like that. It is what the toy is meant to be. These are FUN!

Product does not last. It was fun for a few days for my grandchildren.

This plane reminds me of my youth and flying these planes around our yard. I ordered this for our grandson and he loves it. No batteries but the wind power is right at hand.

It is a good product. I only gave 4 stars because it was broken when delivered. They did replace it right away though and they were not broken the second time. It is just like the ones they had in the late 50's and 60's. They are a lot of fun for little ones. I will buy again but only have it shipped by itself.

Great airplane! Flies great, and lands smoothly. It usually glides for a second after rubber band runs out which helps it land. Some parts like the rudder, elevator and cockpit had to be glued so they don't move around. This particualar plane can be modified easily and even be flown tethered with special modifications, but for that you will need a different rubber motor for longer flight, and a tether, which can be made from things at home. It is not very durable though, so it may break if it hits something hard, but it is easy to fix with wood glue and it usually lands smoothly. For short, it is a great plane for it's price, and works great. Your kids will absolutely love this!

These planes are super lightweight (balsa wood) and won't last for long - but while they do, they are FUN. My 8 year old grandson had a blast. He wound it up, set in down on our sloped driveway and it actually took off from the ground with the wheels! These are very delicate and only lasted a couple of days, but my husband enjoyed the nostalgia of playing with them and introducing this 'old style' fun to our grandsons.

I ordered 4 of these balsa wood planes. Two arrived damaged. In fact, enough pieces were broken that I was unable to salvage a single working plane out of both kits.Amazon does not offer a replacement, but instead offers a refund if I RETURN the planes. Seems rediculous, given that this item is so cheap it was being sold as an "add-on" item in the first place.I am not going to UPS these back. Amazon - how about you do a better job of monitoring the other sellers who you represent on this website.I would like two replacement planes sent out with no shipping charges. I will send you a photo of your broken merchandise if you'd like.
