 Disappointing Quality for the PriceOct 22, 2006
By Allisan Impellizzeri
My husband and I bought this for our son's 3rd birthday. He went nuts when it saw it at the store before his birthday, so we decided to get it for him. He loves imaginative play and Diego and we knew this would be perfect for him.
After putting the toy together, which was very easy, I noticed that it fell apart so quickly. The legs that hold the treehouse part of the the toy up constantly fall off if you try to pick it up and move it. When you push down the nest on the rooftop, which activates the helicopter to fly around, the whole rescue center wobbles around with it. The swinging door doesn't close all the way and the "zip line" that attaches to the little hut comes off when you try to slide Diego down it. The elevator lift doesn't slide up and down the post easily at all. You have to tilt it up and then slide it. The rescue pack that helps Diego slide down the zip line is very difficult to get on Diego.
As much as my son loves this toy, it is very frustating for him when it doesn't work like it should. I get lots of "Mommy can you fix this!?!?" when he plays with it.
If it wasn't $40 and maybe like $20, I wouldn't have been as disappointed.

 Best toy ever!Nov 24, 2006
By Jules
"Happy Mama"
We bought Diego's Animal Rescue Center for our 2 year old daughter for her birthday, because she has really started getting into the Diego show and saw the toy on commercials. I was skeptical after reading some reviews about how the toy fell apart all the time. In fact, we almost didn't get it based on those reviews but decided to give it a chance at the last minute. My girls, ages 2 and 4 yrs. LOVE, LOVE this toy!! It has kept them entertained for hours and they really use their imaginations in acting out scenarios for Diego and the many animals! I would NOT agree with other reviewers about the quality. We haven't had ANY problems with this toy falling apart, everything works perfectly, even the zip line! It might break apart if your kids are smashing it around, but with average play, it is fine. Grandma and Grandpa bought the extra playsets, which gives Diego even more animals to rescue. My ONLY complaint is that I cannot find a set that has Alicia, Diego's sister, because my 2 year old LOVES her! All in all, a wonderful purchase! My kids have learned alot about animals and have been enthralled in play so mommy can get a little work done! :)

So-so design but a favorite none the lessJan 09, 2007
By Shannon
"Mom of 4"
As other reviewers have already stated, the construction of this rescue center is not great. The legs fall out easily, the zip cord is disappointing and my kids can't move the elevator at all. That being said, my two year old and four year old love to play with it and create Diego adventures with the figures. So even though it isn't the best designed toy, it offers imaginative play and the kids love it.

Not Super ImpressedJan 26, 2007
By R. Robbins
My 5 year old insisted on asking Santa for this. We thought he'd be bored with it, and he is. My 3 year daughter enjoys it more, so I would stay in the 2-3.5 age range. My biggest complaint, though, is the quality of this toy. The door does not stay shut, the legs are not secured well enough in the base, and the elevator is IMPOSSIBLE to use. When you attempt to use it, either the legs pull out of the base or you pull so hard everything falls off the elevator or out of the treehouse. My own personal pet peeve is the noise. Every toy that makes noise should have a volume switch!! This does have an on/off switch, but it would be nice to turn the volume down without shutting it off completely. The Deigo figure is nice and solid and fits nicely in the helicopter and cart. Around Christmas this item was $36. Certainly not worth that much! Maybe worth $15-20 if you're buying for a young child and are aware of the design problems.

My son loves it but I dont!Feb 20, 2007
By Jani3811
"Mom-o-many"
My 3 yr old absolutly loves Diego and Dora so of course this item was #1 on his birthday list. It was very easy to put together.....thus making it very easy to take apart! I can't tell you how many times a day I have to put this back together! It's become quite annoying! The locks that are on it (to snap the legs into the base) do not lock at all, you do hear a snap but can pull them right out.
As far as my child...he loves it! He can play with it all day.
