It actually works! It seems to be fairly high quality - its plastic but seems durable, not flimsy. It comes with quite a few special tools, both for decorating and for aiding in shaping and/or centering so that your child can actually have some success.
It is very entertaining and at the same time lesson learning. You can spend hours playing with this. Sculpting, and reshaping. Nothing has to be perfect here because it is all for fun. Even deciding how to paint the items leads to more imagination. The machine is easy to clean (if you do it right away) and the clay doesn't take very long to dry at all. The machine itself is small so it is good for small hands and it stores well.
Pottery Wheel is great for every little budding artist. I let my little "artists" lose with the wheel and my 7 year old was able to make a decent small bowl - he's pleased with the result. My daughter LOVED to "spin" the clay!
One aspect that I especially love about the Pottery Wheel is that this is a sensory integration activity my son. SIP children just think they are having fun when they are actually working strenuously at building essential skills with their bodies and better neurological systems while playing with the Pottery Wheel.

We love the pottery wheel and would buy more as gifts for my friend's and family's children.
Pottery Wheel by Action Products is great and a lot of fun for the kids!!
ps: don't ever leave your 7-year old son alone with clay encrusted hands . . . not even to go to the bathroom . . . he will follow you and proceed to flap and slap his hands together all the way from the kitchen table to the bathroom . . . . and in the process, completely splatter every surface of your house in his path with a smattering of little white clay spots.

that looks like a VERY fun toy. I will definitely remember to heed your warning.
That looks like fun!! Great picture of him in action!!
I could barely make a pinch pot in high school!
That is the CUTEST thing I've ever seen!!! I think we need one at our house. :)
if it wasn't for the mess I would definitely buy one!
Hmmmm, looks like a big mess, I mean big fun............. :) I will wait a couple more years!!!!!!
How fun! Mess and all...
ohhh... what fun!
Looks fun. Maybe in a couple years...
A family I babysat in HS had a wheel similar to that. It was so much fun I will have to remember that in a few years when my kiddos are a bit older.
That first pic is very cute. He is soncentrating so hard.
How fun! I bet it is very relaxing and the kids must have loved it!
Great shot with the pottery wheel! Love the angle!
i always wanted to learn how to do that. looks like so much fun.
This looks like fun! I wanna try it! Thanks for another great review! ... p.s... you asked if my full time career move was by choice... unfortunatly yes... for insurance reasons. Hubby owns his own company but private health ins has skyrocketed so I went back 40 hrs to my job cuz the benefits are so much cheaper and here in MA everyone has to have ins or they get tax penalty! UGHHH!
What a fun, educational thing for your kids to do!
What an awesome photo!!!! He looks so intent in his work. What a charmer. And I do hope you save one of the masterpieces for years to come.
My Wordful is about the 'twin towers' here in our city. Stop by if you can. I'd love your company.
Looks like lots of fun:)
oh my gosh I thought it was Peanut butter!
Looks like fun! A mess, but fun!
That looks like so much fun! Thanks for reviewing this!

how cool is this toy! I love it. I use to take pottery classes as a little one, so I am really digging this for the little man! not yet, maybe in a year or two.
p.s. maybe we should trade for about an hour as you have my brunette (and I have the red head)!
Neato! I would totally play with that . . . at my age. LOL.
I love the 2nd pic. She looks adorable.
Happy WW!
I love that first shot of the wheel in action, that's great!
looks like a lot of fun...but I think my kiddos are still a tad to young for that!
What a cool product! I just know my daughter would adore this,too.
And she would probably clap her hands together and splatter it all over the walls and surfaces, too :)
That looks so cool, but so messy!

Looks like too much fun. My kids love pottery, painting, anything crafty.
Wow! This looks great! (Reminds me of "Ghost"!) And the look of intense concentration on his face just says it all ... seems like a winner!
It certainly looks exciting. : ).
