        Flimsy Remake of a Classic

        Comments about Jester Jack-in-the-Box:

        I agree about the latch--we noticed that you must turn the crank an extra bit to reset the latch so that it again holds the door in place for another go after the clown pops up. If the latch isn't reset, you can't get the door to stay closed after the pop. This was hard to explain to our almost three-year old (we taught him to watch the latch and wait for it to move forward before closing the lid...). Also, I can't believe that this toy retails for [$] because it is very flimsy. It hasn't broken yet but I won't be surprised when it does. I'd like to see better latch/crank coordination and a slightly heavier base for greater stability. I did say, though, that I would recommend this toy to a friend--with disclaimers and if it were on sale--because I love the classics! Many thanks to Back to Basics for bringing them back!

                It's just a simple classic. My two and a half year old likes it as well as my 11 month old.

                While this product has great graphics and the traditional "Pop goes the Weasel" song, the crank handle does not coordinate with the pop up lid latch. The handle must be given an extra turn or two to open the latch. I needed to give this as a gift so I kept this item but I would not recommend it. I have never been disappointed in Back to Basics quality so this was a sad purchase for me.
