My son got this stacker for his first birthday and it's a great toy. My one and only complaint is that I was afraid he would hurt himself on the center pole when he was toddling unsteadily around while learning to walk. That being said, the pros far outweigh the one con. It's durable, brightly colored, and the wood is stained with safe dyes so the color won't chip off (we had that problem with 2 other, cheap stackers that were painted with who knows what). What I like best about this toy is that it's not just round pieces, they are geometric shapes, which lends itself for a lot of educational value. When my son it playing with it we talk to him about the colors, shapes, and sizes of the different pieces, and I can imagine that the shapes will come in handy once he is older and learning those too.
