Can be hooked up to your tv too. Fantastic product, very educational and fun at the same time. Well worth the money.
All my friends now have them for their kids. L-Max doesn't have the bit for the internet but my daughter asks a lot of questions as she plays so I am comfortable with where she is.If you are on the cusp of making a decision you will not regret it. I recommend it to everyone.
Since then she has collected most of the games and is now 6-yrs-old. He copies his sister now all the time (as much as she says she hates it she loves it). My daughter received a L-Max for her 3rd birthday with a princess game.
We have at least one with us at all times and it has saved us more than once from melt downs. We thought we could share games but that doesn't work because the kids play them all the time. My now 2-yr-old son had adopted his sister's L-Max and we had to invest in a second one.
I know my son doesn't get the educational part too much but I feel he is on the way and as everyone know we learn by doing.
It takes a licking and keeps on ticking. My daughter has dropped it so many times and pulls it from the attached pencil. We've bought some additional educational games. Great and educational. It is very durable.
You can purchase a recharger from Leapster, but that is as expensive as the system itself. The only reason I didn't give this toy 5 stars is b/c it goes through batteries (4 AA) very quickly. Overall, I would absolutely buy this again and would recommend it to any parent. We bought this for our 4-year-old daughter and she loves it. The educational value really depends on the various games (purchased separately).
Contacted Leapfrog several times, no help. Unfortunately, I had already returned the L-max for the original, but still received another cartridge for our new regular unit.
I will continue to purchase from Leapfrog. I am thankful for Leapfrog's acknowledgement of the problem and their willingness to fix the problem.
Wrote a bad review about this product because I had so many problems with the TV hook-up, it would constantly come out. Within a day, I had someone from Leapster customer service calling me with a sincere apology and offered to replace the plug, AND gave us a complimentary cartridge of my choice.
They have outstanding products. Returned two units and finally just exchanged it for a regular Leapster.
Finally, I contacted all the departments with the same complaint.
