False expectations

I brought this gift thinking it was great, big disappointment. Not only it was a hassle to assemble, never got it to work properly.

terribly disappointing

Put this together. It took a long time. And it doesn’t work. The wheel doesn’t grasp the film well. Poor kid was so disappointed after all that work. All the other reviews say the same. Why is this sold in stores? Take it off the shelf.

Just Okay

It's fun putting it together, but once assembled, you'll only have the single film strip to churn. The smaller turnstile inside the device doesn't turn how it should, making it difficult for the projector to work consistently. To be honest, I don't think it's worth it. Waste of money.

Poor quality

The small pulley is so tight that the wheel won't turn due to the friction. I tried stretching it out, but to no avail. Needless to say my daughter is very disappointed.
