Not suitable for kids
Not worth the price, reasons follow:1- it has edible gum-balls which are soft and gets stuck in the machine.2- gum-balls leave color on kids hands3- assembly is not easy instructions are not clear4- build quality of the machine is good but major elements i.e gum-balls are edible and soft.
