I spent a long time researching different parking garages as I wanted a well made but robust parking garage that could withstand the demands of toddler hands, and also wanted it to look good. This garage reached all of my expectations. It is a lovely toy made out of decent wood and does not have any weak bits that can be snapped or broken. My son really enjoys playing with it. He uses his other cars on it as well, not just the plan toys ones. It really gets his imagination going which is just lovely to watch (and join in with!) I would recommend this to any child who likes playing cars!

This garage is good and quite straight forward to put together. There are several issues to be aware of:
Firstly standard sized matchbox type cars tend to go straight over the sides when going down the top ramp and don't completely fit in the lift and instead they have to hang out of the front a little.
Secondly the left hand side (as shown in the picture) is slightly unstable. The column where the petrol pumps are isn't sufficiently far to the side and therefore every time my three year old leans on the edge of the middle section the whole thing tips over.
Thirdly and least importantly the car that comes with it is a fairly basic wooden things so best to buy some proper cars to avoid disappointment.
That said he loves it and it is much more solid than the plastic alternatives so we are pleased with the purchase.

This review is from: Plan Toys 6227 Parking Garage (Toy)

The garage arrived flat-packed in a cardboard box, with parts wrapped in paper, which is far more environmentally friendly than the huge quantities of plastic used by other manufacturers and provided just as much protection as plastic, polystyrene etc.

The parts were easy to assemble and the finished garage is very sturdy. When I bought this item, I was drawn by some very ethical-looking credentials, including the use of end-of-commercial-life rubber wood. I was very disappointed to find that all the large floor sections and the ramps are made of MDF, with a paper veneer of "wood grain effect". I had rejected other similar toys on this basis and thought the premium I was paying was to have real wood throughout. I have had it so long before unpacking and building it that I am unable to return it, I suspect, (not purchase from Amazon) and there is nothing wrong with it apart from the choice of materials used. Even if I did return it, others such as Le Van Toys also use MDF, according to some reviews, and some manufacturers use mostly plastic. MDF wasn't mentioned in any of the reviews I read for this Plan Toys garage, although I have to confess that I did not read all 17 reviews in their entirety before purchasing it.

This garage looks and feels durable (I'm not yet sure how well some of the smaller parts will fare), is attractive and has great play value for which I would like to award 5 stars but the use of MDF is a big "NO" for me and it looses out on that aspect. The saving grace is that our son will love it when he receives it at Christmas.

I did lots of research before deciding to purchase this garage for my son's 3rd birthday. However, when we put it together the night before the big day we discovered that the pillars were too tight to let the lift go up and down. If we tried it left red paint on the grey pillars and only went half way up (when forced).

Needless to say, not ideal for a 3 year old's little hands. I spoke to Marbel the company that distributes the toy and they wanted nothing to do with it saying I had to take my problem up with Amazon. Fortunately, Amazon were amazing and agreed I could return it for full refund even though it was past their 30 day return window. Amazon you ROCK.

Instead I purchased the ELC wooden garage which was 50% and so cost me half what this one did.

Sometimes the most expensive isn't always the best.

This is a good quality garage, sturdy, nicely finished. The only down side is that if you (or your child) leans on one of the corners it topples over a bit, not a major deal but would be better if they had designed it with an extra pillar support (going to get hubby to make one). Having said that my 2 year old loves it and is learning not to lean on that bit! The little man in the kiosk is a nice touch, spin his legs round and he sits down. Overall would recommend this.

This is an excellent toy which ny three-year-old grandson loves. The one minor criticism I have is that for small fingers, the black lift knob is hard (although not impossible) to turn. Nevertheless, I highly recommend the garage for very young children. They will love it!
