Summary: Great toy but had to find the right bulb
Comment: You have to get a bulb for this so be sure to measure first. I got the first ones too long.

Summary: Broke after one use
Comment: We successfully made one tray of bugs, then part of the oven "door" broke....the part that engages the oven to work! I found the piece, and planned to take the oven apart to superglue the piece back on, only to discover that what looked like flat-head screws were metal pieces that couldn't be removed whatsoever. So, I tried jury rigging it to get it to stay in the "on" position so we could turn it on by just plugging it in. Well, that wouldn't work because the oven door, which wouldn't engage the lever, controls the ability to slide the on/off switch. I wish they had made the part of the door that engages the toy to work from metal rather than cheap plastic that any kid (including mine) can break by being too forceful. Bad engineering and low quality materials.

Summary: Fun, fun!
Comment: My boys have a blast with this toy. They always want to make bugs. We did have an issue with the door sticking, but my husband rigged it so it would work again. This is a great toy for little boys who love bugs!

Summary: It's fun to 'cook bugs'...
Comment: Great product. My son is having lots of fun in cooking (making) bugs. I guess if I could change any thing about this product is that the manufacturer should include a little booklet with bug facts to match the molds that are included. Also, I was expecting a few more bug 'molds' but this kit only comes with two. Finally, your little one must have a steady hand when placing the mold into the 'oven' because if it goes in at a slant, you will have to tip the oven to get the mold out and then means the 'goo' will slosh all over the inner parts of the oven. My husband just unscrewed the bottom and it cleaned-up in a snap. Now it's as good as new, ready to cook more bugs. I'm thiking of getting some more colors of 'goo' and some more molds just give my son a little more variety. Just an FYI for the shoppers out there. :-)

Summary: well ...
Comment: I have very fond memories of making "bugs" when I was a child and was happy to see this product resurface. You need to buy a lightbulb (not included). This is really a time-consuming process, each individual batch takes several minutes to cook, then even longer for the oven to cool down so you can open it. I wasn't supervising close enough on the first go around, and my oldest forced the door open, breaking it. I was able to superglue the piece back on and it works again, but with such long wait times, it was hard to hold the kid's interest. I'm still glad I bought it, and I even ordered the Spongebob mold set, but I think I'll be the one encouraging the kids to get it out rather than the other way around.
