 Waste of MoneyDec 27, 2009
By Chickie
I bought 3 zhu zhus and the skateboard/uturn add on. The actual hamsters are really pretty great (see my review under Pipsqueak), but this add on was such a waste.
It's pretty tough to get the hamster locked in place on the skateboard (i.e. he doesn't get on it on his own like the car add on). Pressing on the hamster's back while pushing up on the skateboard seems the best way to get it locked on there, but pushing on its back also activates the wheels- making keeping it in place quite a challenge. My 3 yr old cannot get the hamster locked on the skateboard. She initially resorted to getting in on halfway and pushing it around like a manual operation toy/car. Now she's just given up all together. She still carries the accessory around and shows it to the hamster, but doesn't even bother trying.
The u-turn is also a waste. It's so light that the hamster can't get into it on its own. Every time we've gotten a hamster near it- it just pushes the darn uturn across the floor- somtimes making the honking horn sound. It's even worse if you've gotten the hamster skateboard and try getting it through the u-turn.
It is kind of neat to see the hamster tearing across the room on the board once you've gotten him in there, but not enough to make it worth the $.

A Waste of Money!Jul 18, 2010
By Benny Blanco
We have 5 Zhu Zhu Pets and this Skate Board only fits 2 which are "male" Zhu Zhu Pets (Mr. Squiggly and Capatain Rivet) the front peg does not lock on the other 3 female and they fall off and/or do not move despite new battery strength, you have to invert (S-shape) the direction of the 2 U-Turn section otherwise it dead ends into the side of the starter tunnel section we initially purchased, maybe you don't have to do this with other kits that have more than 1 open port but there is no disclosure on the box to this inherent flaw other than to say,"Connects to all Zhu Zhu Hamster track systems". If the batteries in your Zhu Zhu pets are not brand new than the movement on the skateboard is painfully slow, another inherent flaw with Zhu Zhu Pets is that they all eat up batteries faster than any toy my children ever had or any device that we have. My children were only amused with the hamsters on the skateboard for seconds due to their slowness and they could not possibly fit the skate board on the pets by themselves. The U-turn and joints are flimsy with the kit and add on set, it falls apart with little movement.Zhu Zhu pets are a fad, the manufacturer Cepia does not deliver a quality product but rather an inferior one at high prices, no future here.

Fun AccessoryApr 19, 2011
By E. Kennedy
This is a nice add on accessory for anyone who likes Zhu Zhu pets. The skateboard will work on any hard flat surface and works with the u-turn. It seems to be more fun if you have some of the other play sets to connect them to. We may end up getting a couple more. Nice gift for any kids who are caught up in the hamster mania!

CHEAP TOY AND FALSE ADVERTISINGJan 31, 2011
By Mom on a Mission
I am completely disappointed in this toy.
The U-turn is very cheaply made and the skateboard does NOT fit into the u-turn, unlike the picture on the front of the box.
The u-turn should be something I could buy at the Dollar Store.
I agree with the person that states it is hard to keep the hampster on the skateboard as well.
I really believe this was a complete waste of money and will NOT buy anymore accessories for these hamsters.
DO NOT BUY THIS TOY! Don't waste your money.
