 2 broken out of the boxNov 04, 2009
By Chris
Talk about cheap. We got one of these for my daughter's birthday and I was excited. I had one when I was a kid. It turned on when I put in the batteries (more later) but the on/off switch did not work. So I took it back and got another. Same problem, on/off switch did not work. Talk about quality control issues.
Another complaint. I would prefer the old school electric plug, but they've switched to batteries. Fine. The bulb they use is smaller than a night light bulb, yet it takes 3 D size batteries to run it. Are you kidding me? I think you could light that with 1 C in 1970. Inefficient, wasteful, bad for the environment, expensive to run.
Design could not be much worse. Find a 20 year old model on eBay.

 Great toy, bad priceJan 24, 2008
By Elle Mac
You'd be crazy to buy this toy here for $44.00. It's only $10 at Target and Wal-Mart at regular price.

Still a Lite Brite, but not the one from your childhoodDec 29, 2009
By R. Suehle
I suspect a lot of people have bought this for their kids, remembering their own sturdy (perhaps slightly hot) Lite Brites. This is not that Lite Brite.
Pros:
- Small, compact. Won't take up much space, and it would travel well.
- Case for pegs--excellent idea. (See cons)
- Battery-powered--don't have to put the kid near an outlet. Use rechargeables, of course.
- It's a Lite Brite!
Cons:
- If you don't open the peg case carefully, pegs go everywhere. It only took me a couple of tries to learn how not to spray pegs, but I don't think my four-year-old will take the same care.
- I *think* my old 80s Lite Brite had a place in the back to store the templates. If it didn't, it should have. And this one should too. Then it would all be self-contained.

Flat screen doesn't hold pegsJan 02, 2008
By Brenda J. Baird
Although the lite-brite arrived quickly and in perfect condition, we found that the pegs don't stay in the holes. The flat screen is much easier to carry and store than the older larger model.

OK, but hard for little fingersDec 27, 2008
By Amy
I bought this for my 3 1/2 year old, who loves playing with Grandma's original lite bright. SOOO not the same. The papers are hard--almost plastic-feeling, and she has a really hard time pushing the pegs through it. She lost interest in about 3 minutes, where she'll play with the one at grandma's forever! Additionally, the pegs don't stay in well, as was also reflected in other reviews. Thank goodness I only spent $10 at Target for it!
