The toy is fine as long as it works, Leapfrog ... not so much.Sep 03, 2010 I purchased a Leapster 2 for my 5-year-old grandson, along with four games, which he enjoyed immensely. The device suddenly stopped working after a few months, although it had not been abused and was in pristine condition. I wrote to Leapfrog in July asking for help and first they recommended cleaning battery contacts, etc., which I did to no avail. I sent them pictures showing what I had done. I asked if I could return the unit for repair but they said instead that I should deface the front of the device by writing a RMA# (which they provided) on it with a black magic marker. They said if I sent a picture of this, along with scans of my receipt from amazon.com then they would replace the unit. I thought this was nice of them until I realized months later that they were just giving me the run-around.
There were many emails back and forth, twice they asked me to resend the proofs that I had already sent them, and at the end of each email they wrote "..we have already processed the replacement and rest assured this will come in the mail within 10 to 15 business days." However, I have never received the promised replacement. I am angry at being lied to. I provided them with everything they requested and followed their instructions to the letter. Consumers should be aware that they likely cannot trust the Leapfrog customer service department.
Durable Fun Education ToyAug 25, 2010 My daughter received this as a gift and now her little sister (3) uses it also. this is a great learning tool that is fun and durable. My daughters love playing with it, but the youngest has not learned to treat it with care.
My 4 year old daughter LOVES her leapster!!Aug 20, 2010 I bought this for my daughter for her 4th birthday(she has the pink one), she LOVES IT!! She wants to play it all the time. It very easy to set up and download the first "free" game. I also bought the Tinker bell game. She LOVES her Tinker Bell game. It's very educational and she'll be able to learn and play for sometime!
I would recommend this to any parent who has a child from 4-8.
Stylus doesn't work, and leapfrong cust. serv. is a nightmareAug 18, 2010 I ordered this for my daughter and gave it to her just in time for a long car trip we're leaving on. She opened the unit, and as she opened each of the 4 games I got to go w/ it, she got more and more excited to play it! Imagine our disappointment when we popped the beloved princesses into the unit, waited 15 minutes for my husband to register it on their website (not optional,) and sat through a ridiculously long series of intro screens that you have to endure EVERY TIME you put a new game in only to find out the stylus really had about 30% functionality. This was last night. She tried to play the games, but as the stylus is garbage, she got very frustrated and gave up on them. This morning we tried again, only to have the stylus not work at all! I call leapfrog to request a refund, with the expectation that this would not be a big deal for a defective unit, and I would go out today and buy one in a store. Now imagine my anger when I get through to leapfrog in India, I'm asked a series of identifying questions, email, phone number, etc. (which I had to keep repeating b/c of the language barrier) before I can even explain the problem. Then I'm told that if I want a refund, I have to ship the unit back, along w/ the headphones that don't work either, at my expense, and that's only after they give me a return authorization number. To get a replacement, I have to write the RAN on the screen in sharpie, take a picture of it, scan the receipt, and send it to my friend in India. I'm not kidding. Why they can't just send a self-addressed envelope or box w/ the new unit is beyond me. I should expect my (hopefully) functioning unit in 10-15 days. So, I'm out of luck for our very long drive. Below is a copy of my instructions for getting a working toy for which I have already paid. Skip this thing, or be prepared for a huge headache and very disappointed child.

Died after 3 daysAug 15, 2010 I cannot believe that this game did not last more than 3 days after presenting my 5 y-o with it. This product is not durable I do not recommend that any buys it. Yes, it is a fun tool, etc. But it doesn't last long, the touchscreen being the main purpose of using the device is the 1st thing to go. Once that is unusable there isn't much else you can do with this game other than to use it as paperweight TSK!!!!
