Verified Purchase:Yes
I was extremely disappointed with this product. I have purchased several Step 2 products and have always been happy with them. This item took about an hour and a half to put together with the screw holes not drilled out we had to use a hammer to create the holes in the plastic in order to screw the many pieces together. Looks like you should be able to snap together like most Step 2 products but it doesn't! Now that the item is put together the cars do not travel the track smoothly, you will have to continue to push them around the many corners! I would not recommend nor purchase this item again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you to Step2 for letting me test this item as part of the Step2 toy tester program!
We received this item and the kids were super excited from the picture on the box and couldn't wait for us to get it put together. It took under an hour to assemble the whole thing and was easy to follow the directions even with little fingers "trying" to help.
It's a great size and height for my 3 and 4 year old to reach all pieces and parts as well as play together around the Raceway. The drawers on the front are a great feature and hold plenty of cars. The only thing that the kids have mentioned and I've noticed is that the cars get stuck around the curves. They have to physically re-push the cars through the corners to keep them moving. Maybe the more that we play with it the better the cars will roll from the top to the bottom. Even with the cars stopping at the corners my son hasn't stopped playing with it! He even asked to go play with it after getting ready for bed!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great product for Hot Wheels lovers!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I did receive this in exchange for an unbiased review. All opinions are my own.
I received this because my triplet boys LOVE Hot Wheels. The ramps worked just as advertised, and the cars did go down the ramps on their own after pushing the cars from the top. Several kids can play around this at one time. The product comes with some additional track, I can also purchase more in store if I want to in the future. As a mom, I like the storage bins underneath. They hold plenty of Hot Wheels.
The toy was easy to assemble. I put it together by myself in under an hour. The product is durable and well mad. It is a great product for a great price.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not so great...

Unfortunately I would not recommend this toy. My daughter absolutely loves hot wheels cars and has been using a little tikes ramp for some time to send them down. I saw this and immediately purchased it for Christmas thinking she would love it.
Only about half of her cars fit as the track is very narrow. The ones that do fit, don't go all the way down the ramp by themselves. Even the cars that came with the ramp, don't make it all the way down. They get stuck at the curves and you have to push them.
My daughter was very excited to see this toy on Christmas morning, but by evening she was back to using the little people ramp for her Hot Wheels.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While assembly was a little time consuming, those screws make the design behind the Road Rally Raceway extra sturdy. And once together, this toy is a big hit! Every day, I've found at least one of our five kids playing cars, racing, and having fun with the Raceway. It's built well, works great, and is a bit unique compared to other car toys I've seen. We love it!

Great for a range of ages

Thank you to Step2 for letting me test this item as part of the Step2 toy tester program.
My kids wanted me to start setting this up right after we got it. I will admit to using a drill instead of a screwdriver, as it was easier for me to get the pressure needed to put a hole through the plastic. The pieces went together very easily, and it took me maybe half an hour to get this fully assembled including stickers. My kids range in age from 3 to almost 7, and they have been fighting over who gets to play with this, almost every day since we received it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First I want to say thank you to Step2 for letting me test this item as part of the Step2 toy tester program! I was so excited to finally be chosen! I have 2 boys, ages 22 months and 5 so I thought this would be awesome!
First off, I want to say that this was not fun to assemble. All the pieces (see contents photo) require you to drill your own holes into the plastic. I wish the pieces would have came pre-drilled so I only had to add in the screws. The directions were very clear, and minus drilling my own holes, it was easy to put together.
Once I got it all put together, the boys and I did notice that the very last ramp wasn't slanted enough to actually make the car finish going around. I don't know if it was the cars, if I didn't have it assembled just right, or what, but it loops around the curves from the top the first two curves just fine, but when the car hits the last one (on the back) it just stops. (See video) However, on the plus side, I feel like this toy is SUPER durable and will withstand many many hours of play!
This toy doesn't come with many track pieces, but we have other hot wheels tracks, so we added some more track to this toy which made it even more fun! The boys love "ramping" the cars off it and racing them since we have more track now to make both sides usable.
I also love that this toy has bins that you can store the cars in! How awesome! My son has a hot wheels suitcase that he stores them in, but this is very convenient and keeps the cars right there and available for them to play with the toy!
They have both played with it numerous times since we have received this toy and I would say it is a hit in our home! I definitely would recommend it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

My son's favourite Christmas present!

This product is everything I pictured it to be when I first saw it online. I ordered it for my son for Christmas and it is definitely his favourite toy. His big sister even wants to get involved.
It is very sturdy and seems like it's going to last a long time.
The only downfall of it I'd say is assembly! There are no pre-drilled holes so you're stuck screwing in every screw through thick plastic. It was very time consuming and painful after a while.
