This truck is huge! This is our first experience with Bruder trucks and we will be acquiring more. This was bought as a gift for a 5yo boy. Having never seen this in person we depended on all the reviews. This truck is highly detailed and realistic. It is made of plastic but after 5 days has remained intact. In a lot of reviews people have stated that how their kids have quickly broke these trucks. We did take time to show our 5yo and 6yo how to operate this crane. They were very excited and really enjoyed the realism of the crane. They even had a relative show them the appropriate hand signals to operate the crane and almost refuse to move the crane if you don’t use the right hand signals. When fully extended the boom reaches over 60 inches so be prepared to have some room. Even the older kids and several adults have been caught playing with this. Hint: don’t force anything. If something isn’t working or moving then you are doing something wrong. Show your kids how to play with it and you will be rewarded with hours of joy.UPDATE!!! Just wanted to give a 8 month update. This crane has seen a lot of work from building log homes on dressers to moving large loads like the Bruder Bulldozer or GI Joe Tank. Our 5 year old still gets tons of enjoyment out of this crane. So far nothing has been broken off of it. We still believe that proper instruction on toys have saved a lot of destruction. This crane is kept inside and all kids love playing with it.

The crane is just as awesome and detailed and capable as I hoped it would be. But, the second time I tried to remove the extension arm, the two little plastic nubs that the arm rests on snapped off. I would have hoped for more durability in such a well made and thought out product. I was even trying to go slow and be careful with it but it snapped both sides off anyway.Fortunately Bruder has a great spare parts store and I had a replacement boom extension within a few days. I just didnβt expect to have to replace a part so soon after getting my brand new crane. Perhaps this part that will be subject to more stress ought to be made of metal or some material that is more able to handle repeated use than the current plastic.

It’s a very cool toy. Big and seemingly sturdy, although everything is plastic, so could worry about some of the “gears”. Our son is 3-1/2 and is struggling to spin the knobs that raise and lower the boom etc. Problem is you can raise and extend it by just pulling, but cannot lower it that way and I’m afraid he may force it and break it. It does say 4+ on the box though and I do think that’s a better fit.One piece was broken when we got it. Just a piece on the door of the cab/the right mirror was missing so not critical. We’ll try to get a replacement and if not we’ll super glue it. But it shouldn’t be like that at this price point!

This crane was purchased for a 4 year old grandson. There is no worry about him mishandling it and breaking it. He absolutely loves the crane. He uses it for lifting his other toys, and for “rescuing” toy soldiers by dropping them a line. He loves the lights which can be turned on or off, and varied. He has already learned to deploy the stabilizer jacks for his heavier lifts. While the initial cost is more than a lot of toys, we fully expect this crane to be passed on to his little brother as he gets older.

My grandsons are 4 years old and they love this crane! They freaked out on how big it was when they opened it for Christmas! They have been playing with it everyday since!! Winner winner chicken dinner!! I was a little hesitant because of the price, but the joy it has brought is priceless!! Will get different truck next year to go with this one!!

The string with the hook on it keeps breaking. Which for what this item cost, thatβs a little disappointing. Otherwise, great toy that has provided hours of fun for my grand boys.

Grandson loves construction toys and trucks. Tough to sort out choices online. This one seeemed right…and delivered! 4 year old grandson immediately started playing with this, picking up items, swinging them around, dropping them in location and even taking it to his room at night as “the” treasured toy. All of his other versions are high end as well, so this won out by virtue of design and appeal, not just due to being a pricey toy. Bruder really delivered with this thing.

Awesome Christmas gifts for two 4 year old boys. Both are still in use and only minor wear marks. Great activity toys.
