Just that. It looks good to me but I am not a good judge of technology.

If they like making little crafty things then yes will prob be entertaining for a bit. Can’t imagine it would be fun for long though?

Yeah and it's £40. I also wondered if people find it expensive for refills? I don't want to add them to my weekly shopping list.

We got one and it was useless.

Not sure if they any good as lots for sale for £5 or free on my Facebook marketplace...

My crafty dd never really used hers. We use it to fix stuff occassionaly basically its just melted plastic. Even more expensive ones are more of a novelty.

DD 2 had one when she was 12 (17 now, so an early one) and she loved it. Used it a lot and I often find little animals she made tucked away in a drawer! It still works though hasn’t been used much recently.
