    Good for my 8yr old daughter who loves craft and art. She is so happy about this, easy to use and it’s safe to use. Even me I love using it to create a master piece!

    My grandson absolutely loves it. He's looking forward to making his next project. His younger brother also enjoyed making something with help from his parents. He was surprised being able to draw in the air to make something 3D. I only wish that I could have bought extra refills to extend the fun but Best Buy doesn't offer any refills but I was told I could find them at another store in town. I bought the last 2 in the store so they are obviously popular so refills would be wise to carry. The last time I bought an item like this, it was at Barnes and Nobles and they carried refills so that grandson had lots of hours of fun. Please keep up the good work improving on these 3D pens as I will probably be buying more for other grandchildren.

    It took a second to get the material to warm up and start coming out. But this is definitely a cool gift for kids (and adults) to get creative. I bought it for my son and it gives us something to work on together!
