I bought this item for my son for Christmas. It never worked properly, and within 24 hours, it would not even turn on. Because the original packaging was discarded, I could not return it to the local store where I bought it, and Leapster refuses to exchange it for me. Basically, I’m out the $$ I paid for it. I would give it zero stars if possible.

Purchased L-Max for my son’s 4th birthday. Took him a while to get used to the controls, but now has it mastered. He dropped it only a couple of months after we bought it and it completely died. I called Leapster at the number on the packaging and they had me send it back. I included a letter of what happened and the original packaging (although I don’t beleive it was required). In less then two weeks we had a brand new one. If I had known that Leapster 2 would be out in only a couple of months I might have waited. I have yet to see any games for L-Max in the stores since I bought it less then a year ago but have found some on line for almost half the price of Leapster 2 games. My son enjoys it, likes to plug it into the tv for larger view and I feel like he’s learning when he plays.

I bought this toy for my son on his 3rd birthday. He has enjoyed it and we liked the variety of games, but the screen has become misaligned and he can’t play anymore games that require the pen, some games only use the buttons and they work just fine. The company wouldn’t fix the alignment, but I did like the system enough that I will probably buy a leapster for my daughter for Christmas and just use my son’s games.

I bought 2 of these about a year and a half ago for my boys who were 5 & 4 at the time. They’ve gotten A LOT of use of out it and love the games. It keeps them busy, is wonderful to take when I have to go places like the service station to get my car serviced. They just play away with their games, and mommy can enjoy a magazine while we wait. I absolutely love the educational value of it, because I refuse to buy any electronic games for them that aren’t educational until they are older. My oldest son, who turns 8 next week, told me about a month ago that he feels he is too old for it now and is ready for the Leapster Didj. (I just ordered the Didj for his birthday.) But he definitely got great use of the Leapter L-Max up until now. I’m going to pass his L-Max on to his 6 year old cousin once his Didj arrives.

My son got it for his 3th birthday and still plays once in a while. Not a bad game, very educational, only the quality of the screen it’s not as I wish. Being portable, is one of the best things for me about this toy.
