Marble run recommendations?

I'd like to buy a marble run for a five year old. Which is the best set (or sets) to go for?

I like the galt marble run - there’s a few different sets so if she likes it you can add to it, and they’re pretty sturdy.

Hape is also good but a lot more expensive I think.

There are some in the prime day deals if you shop on Amazon. I was eyeing up the vtech ones but think my almost 4yo might still be a bit little.

Galt - the biggest you can get. They're sturdy and I think are compatible with some other sets, but you'd need to confirm that.

At that age definitely Galt. We have the biggest set and it’s been loved by all 3 of my kids(it’s actually out right now).

Galt. The bigger the pack size the better.

I don't know much about the Galt but the Hape is the bee's knees. Has been amazing fun for my two for years (officially it's MINE).
At 5 for DS, DD was only 2 though, so while DS was able to help me set it up, and try himself, DD was unable to restrain herself from grabbing it and pulling it down.

I recommend Gravitrax. The box states age 8 - 99 but my son got his first set when he was 6 and he loved it and I think it will have a longer appeal than a basic marble run

Thanks everyone!
