[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Get ready for some excitement with the Hot Wheels 4-Loop Crash Out! This thrilling set is easy to set up and stands at a perfect height of 26.7 inches, making it ideal for kids ages 5 and up. With its bright and inviting color scheme, the set provides a vibrant but not overstimulating experience, ensuring hours of fun. The set features an introductory track that allows for creative expansions, the flexible and durable loops are designed to hold their shape and can handle all the action. Once set up, the four loops are robust and secure, providing a reliable play experience. Keep in mind, the set does require four D batteries (not included), and there's a handy on/off switch located conveniently next to the battery compartment. However, there are a couple of things to consider. The volume can get quite loud when the set is activated, and you won't be able to adjust it. Additionally, placing it on a level surface is crucial for optimal performance; otherwise, it may struggle to push cars through the loops effectively. Lastly, the size of the vehicles plays a significant role; I found that not all compatible cars make it past the first loop. In summary, my son absolutely loves this set and can play with it for hours! It’s engaging and perfect for playdates, allowing multiple kids to dive into the fun and build excitement together!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 4 loop hot wheels is definitely a hit in our house. My 5 year old loves all things hot wheels. So when he opened this he was super excited. It kept him occupied for hours and the best part is you can add tracks for more fun.
Seriously Mattel, 1 car? Out of all our cars the one supplied is the only one that works. I went and bought more (low profile sports cars) none work. Not even half way round. Please put an actual list out of which cars ACTUALLY work with this track. The vague response "low profile cars should work" is pathetic. If I buy a hotwheels track, I expect hotwheels cars to work. Not 1 out of every 100.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To start there were a lot of pieces for this track. Assembling it was fairly easy but some of the directions were confusing. Once it’s assembled and batteries are installed it’s actually pretty cool. Initially the car doesn’t make it through all the loops. It takes a couple tries before it gets in a pattern of going through all the loops. It’ll only make it maybe 5 times at most before it falls short again though. Only certain hot wheels cars make it all the way too. My son loves that he can connect it to his other tracks though.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Hot Wheels action set is huge! My kids loved it so much, they play with it for hours. It took us a bit to put together, but it was easy when following the instructions. You will need 4 D batteries to push the cars through the entire circuit. Did I say it is super fun?! :) There is a possibility to fold it, so it doesn't take too much space to store it. My son loves to play with his cars, and this set every day after school. He has much more fun than with other sets he had before. He recommends it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 7 year old was able to set the track up mostly own his own. It requires 4 D batteries so be prepared. It is very challenging to get the car to make it all the way through the track and it definitely won’t make it through another lap. It is cool that it folds up but it is rather large still.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hot Wheels 4- Loop Crash-Out is a really nice track. It is big (4 loops) but since it is tall, it doesn't take up too much floor space. It folds up easily to store it or move to a different location to play with it. It can easily connect to other hot wheels tracks to add to the fun and it also can be used with other cars. Now for the cons: Really there is only 1......the batteries. It takes 4 "D" batteries. The first time playing with it I put some brand new brand name batteries in it and got about 20 minutes continuous playtime before we noticed it slowing down a bit. I folded it up and put it away until the next day. Sadly I have no video from day 1 but we were getting almost non-stop loop de loops with only the occasional "accident". That was the last time we got that from the track. What this video shows is what we are dealing with ever since folding it up and unfolding it. The car just doesn't go all the way through. We have tried 2 different sets of batteries of different brands with no change in results. We have looked the track over numerous times to make sure nothing came apart and we cannot find the reason for the sudden change in performance. We have found that if we prop up the support feet under the loops, it will work better but obviously that is not the intended setup of the track. Overall, the track is really fun and the replay ability is definitely there so we will continue to play with it and I do recommend it. Just wish there was a way to adjust the positioning of the supports. Also, I really hope that Hot Wheels will consider making rechargeable set in the future.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love hot wheels and this track is no different! The boys enjoy playing with it whether the batteries are in or not. We love: that it folds up, and that you can launch a car when it’s folded up like a ramp and it flies through air. We don’t love: the batteries don’t last very long and we were only able to get one car to successfully make it through the track even after several different cars and methods…but the track is still really fun.
