100-Piece Orbrium Toys Triple-Loop Wooden Train Set Fits Thomas Brio Chuggington


Good buy, lacks straight pieces
Just had this delivered for my 3yr old grandson. He enjoys it but quickly wanted to change the set layout. The lack of straight pieces limited his attempts to make a complete track. Over 2/3 of the 100 pieces are things other than track. I would suggest buying the supplemental add on set first if you already have cars or, if you can, buy both sets. We will be ordering the add on set after I write this review as the overall quality is good and the price cannot be beat.
Fantastic value!
I was nervous about ordering this for Christmas, but the quality and attention to detail is outstanding. Brand name sets like this are very expensive. My four year old grandson has now played with this set for hours on end, and he loves the flexibility it gives him to build any track he can dream up. I would certainly seek out other products by this company.

Several pieces broke during the first play session. The wood split along the grain when the children tried to disassemble the train. I should had spent the money for a name brand. I have tried to contact the company but can not find any information who the manufacture is. Do not buy.
UPDATE:
I have since been able to contact Orbrium? directly. They stand by their product and explained that some sellers occasionally purchase damaged merchandise and then resell it. They replaced the train set after I sent them pictures of the damage. The company was very helpful and I would buy their products again, just not from the same seller.
