This was not at all what I thought it would be. Bought for a cat toy. Worked about 5 minutes and hasn't worked since. Don't waste money on this product.

The Happy Hamster Wheel Runner was a Christmas toy that arrived broken, and in all the chaos of four grandkids opening gifts on Christmas Day, the box unfortunately was thrown out. Grandpa tried to soder the broken wires but was unsuccessful, so we never even got to try the happy little hamster on his wheel! We also couldn't send the happy little thing back for refund because we had tossed out the box! Better luck next time!

I bought 4 of these hamster toys for Christmas presents. My son received one and is pretty rough with it and it's still holding up great! It's like having a pet without the mess and loads of fun. My son is 19 months old so he only gets to play with it when I'm watching but again, he throws it around, etc. and it's very durable!!!

Purchased as a Christmas gift for young boy. He was so excited when he opened it he ignored all the other gifts. What cheap entertainment!! Well worth the money.

My daughters were asking for 'Zhu Zhu Pets' for Christmas and I wasn't going to pay higher than MSRP, so this made a great substitute and they were very happy. Be careful if your child has long hair; it will get stuck in the wheels if they get too close.

I purchased two of these while on vacation in Laguna beach. I gave them both to my 2 and 3 year old. They immediately loved them and now three months later are still playing with them. The only thing you should know is that eventually hair and dust gets wrapped around the wheels not allowing for them to run. Don't throw them away unless you want to purchase them every other week or so. The way to resolve this issue is to simply take the Zhu Zhu a part. It is a fairly simple task. Just clean the wheels with tweezers and a needle. Once completed your Zhu Zhu runs like new. We currently have four Zhu Zhu's without any of the extras. My children love them.

My daughter specifically wanted the "pink" hamster and EVERYWHERE was sold out. Luckily, I found it on amazon. Thank you so much for saving the day!!!!!!!!!!!

Right now I am feeling so sad for my daughter, who cried when Mr. Squiggles suddenly started sounding like he is possessed. She loved this toy - until now. Now she won't even play with it because of the sound. The crappy Made-in-China speaker inside no longer works properly, and the sound is AWFUL!!! It just sounds like a bunch of static and noise. What a shame they couldn't make these with better quality parts! They are no fun when they sound scary!

We bought the Zhu Zhu's for our twin 7 years olds birthday...They are crap. The animals stopped working in less than 12 hours. (Not straight use time...but within 12 hours of them getting them for their birthday) Both Zhu Zhu's stopped working. So, either they had weak batteries or the product is crap. Our girls were very excited to get these hamsters and well, their buzz was killed quickly when they stopped working. These are cute to look at and the accessories look like fun but unless you have a large play area to set up the rooms and the equipment...find something else. Also, the accessory pieces are cheaply made and in my opinion not worth the money. Sorry, but the Zhu Zhu was very much oversold. These are going back to the store.

My son enjoys Mr. Squiggles very much. I wish I had bought more accessories. this is the best kind of pet, no food no mess, and if it dies just put in another battery. I did pay too much but my son was promised the toy.

Well this was make her happy no matter what purchase during the Christmas rush when I could not be available to shop due to an emergency out of state! I found this one and another from the vendor which was in itself a miracle of sorts. Got one-and it arrived just in time; was impressed with shipping because I did not pay for the fast shipping! I was shocked by the total of over $[...] by the time all was totaled and found them at the check out at a WalGreens just before boarding the airplane for home for ALOT less; could of got three for what I paid for this one! But hey thats life sometimes

I got this for my granddaughter for Christmas because it was on her list. She has a real hamster and this looks a lot like him! I later found 2 more in our hometown toy store. She thought they were great. And that is all that matters if your the grandmother!
