Play-Doh Perfect Sales Playset
Our
daughters received this as a gift; it's one of many Play-Doh sets we
have. The main attraction is an extruder that pumps out ice cream into a
spinning cone - voila! TV-commercial worthy play-doh ice cream cone!
The
problem is the key feature is that you can make twist cones, by which I
mean, you can mix approximately two jars of play-doh plus together and
make about two twist cones. Now the play-doh is mixed together and
basically useless. This amounts to about 90 seconds of fun per two jars
of play-doh. The set comes with three jars. I'm sure this is a big
money-maker for the manufacturer as the parents of disappointed children
buy more play-doh to waste on this ridiculous thing. Even as a gift it
would have cost us a ton if I didn't throw it away after that supremely
annoying 90 seconds was over.

Frustrating for a 4 year old
My
daughter loves to play with Play-doh products and has been asking for
the Play-Doh Perfect Twist Ice Cream maker for a while now. I finally
gave in and got it for her because she's almost 5 and was hoping that
she would be able to use the ice cream maker without adult assistance.
The age on the box says age 3 and up but to be honest I highly doubt
many 3 year olds are going to be able to play with this. They don't have
the motor skills, patience or strength needed.
Here are my cons for this toy:
~ Difficult to use the sprinkle maker. It's flimsy and requires a fair amount of pressure to work
~ When you push down level the ice cream shoots out while the ice cream cone swirls. We basically ended up with a huge mess.
~The
cone holder is nearly impossible to get the cones out of without taking
it off the machine. Our went flying more than once when trying to get a
cone out.
~The little impressions are extremely hard to get the dough out of and still have the shape or impression intact.
Here are my pros:
~ It does encourage imagination
~ It does help fine tune their motor skills
~ Problem solving comes in to play
~Promotes creativity
I
would say this toy is more for a 6+ age group. My daughter will be 5 in
a couple months and she can play with the perfect twist ice cream maker
however it requires a fair amount of assistance from me or another
adult. She did enjoy playing with it but I could tell she was getting
frustrated having to ask me for help every few minutes. She eventually
gave up playing with the perfect twist ice cream maker and just played
with the cones, ice cream cups and play-doh. If I had to do this over I
would not buy it again for her. She's just not ready for it.

Play Doh Ice Cream Maker
My
son wanted this ice cream maker for quite some time so grandma bought
him one. First, the device is not as big as you think it would be. Ice
cream cups are TINY. But seems the boy does not care, which is a plus.
Second, the space between the cup (when put in the space below the ice
cream maker) and the place where ice cream is coming out is not wide/big
enough. One ice cream in the cup it'w hard to yank the cup out. But
again, kid does not seem to mind. Third, the lever to use when making
ice cream is not tough enough. Kid uses force to operate it, and I see
it breaking any time (but has not broken yet).
My
biggest beef is that the box says play doh is some special "doh plus"
kind, which you would think be something that would not crumble easily,
etc. Nope, made quite a mess the very first time my son used it. And
lastly, I see it sells here on amazon for $51 - definitely not worth it.
Asked grandma what she paid for it and she said Target had it for
$14.99. That I can handle. Overall my son is happy and plays with it a
lot. I did purchase a set of regular play doh, which is a bit harder to
work with in the machine, but it's not as messy. I will recommend this
toy because clearly it;s fun for the kids. Tip - use on the table or put
a vinyl tablecloth on the floor if you use play doh that's included,
otherwise you'll be cleaning your carpet and rugs for an hour like I did
the first time.

This is a nice Play-doh set and we recommend this to everyone
This
is a nice Play-doh set and we recommend this to everyone. Our 7 and 4
yo both loved playing with this. Of course it is messy but it is fun.
Over the years the sets are improving in quality but I can see Play-doh
is having a hard time coming up with new ideas. How many ice cream and
food playsets can you make? We also look forward to see whats new from
Play-doh but are usually disappointed as it is usually the same toy but
just looks different. If you don't have any of these sets you should
pick this one up.

best play doh ice cream maker
My
girls love it. This one is different than the other Play Doh ice cream
makers. My daughter like this one because of the handle. She said it is
like a real ice cream machine and much easier to use than the other ones
that require you push down on the top. Remember to clean any leftover
play doh out when playtime is done or will harden and the toy will
become hard to use. A lot of people forget that when they get these
toys. As long as you help your kids keep it clean after they're done
playing it will work great and last long time. I agree the lever on the
front is much easier than the others she has.
