Boring question but can anyone recommend one?

The wooden ones seem to be just extortionate but are the plastic ones any good?

We have the ELC plastic one. It's fab.

Our cat always nabs a marbles and drives us mad by batting it around the laminate floor!

I have got DD's the ELC one for Christmas. They love the little one they have which came from a charity shop.

We bought the ELC one for a friend's birthday and he found it so unstable he took it back to the shop for a refund (he was 4). Maybe there's a knack to putting it together?!

I saw one in Aldi yesterday for £7.99 - wooden, but not very big. Will see if I can dig out link...

Marbutopia is good, because you can get very small kits for about a fiver as 'add-ons' to the normal sized one.

DH DS loves his.
