Big puzzle!

Upon first seeing the balance beam, my little toddler baby exclaimed, “big puzzle!” and after we put that big puzzle together, I walked on it showing the use as a balance beam. Probably confused my little one, but it’s now considered a big puzzle that can be walked on!

There are two slight imperfections, one of which kind of concerns me, but not very much. A portion of edging on one of the boards wasn’t sanded as smoothly as the others, and a small section where it wasn’t sanded smooth had a pokey piece of loose wood which I peeled away, so now it’s better but not as smooth as the edges of the other boards. I am hoping the edge doesn’t catch on anything causing the piece that’s not flush with the board to become loose and peel away.

And of less importance, merely affecting appearance, one board has an indentation where something may have been dropped on it.

Those two minor imperfections aside, my baby and I are enjoying our new big puzzle balance beam! I was contemplating buying more boards to add to it, but four are more than enough to start out with using.

Side note: before ordering, I contacted customer service and received some of the best, thorough and kind responses I’ve ever received from any company, on any matter. The quality of communication made my decision to place my first order with them an easy one. Now I am planning my next order!

Great quality & versatile

I purchased this balance beam set after I got the jumbo climbing triangle + ramp from RAD last June. I love how smooth and sturdy all their products are. Very durable and easy to clean. This beam matches perfectly with the previous products. I noticed how my toddler was having fun in many different ways. He even used them like skis all around the floor. Thank you for a great play set!

Very Odd configuration

This product does not look complete. If they just added one more piece of the beam, one could make a pentagon with it. Escapes me why they did not.

I am a fan of everything else I have bought— not sure if this is product design mistake or shipping/ packing mistake.

Thank you for your review. We're glad to hear that your family has enjoyed other items from RAD, and we appreciate your feedback on the balance beam.

Our balance beam is designed for versatile play, using 4 planks and 5 connector blocks. This setup allows for various configurations, including a straight line or zigzag pattern, and can also form shapes like squares, diamonds, and triangles. However, it does not have enough pieces to create a pentagon. The number of pieces is described on the product page to help set expectations.

We offer customization options, and we'd be happy to assist you with an order that includes additional planks and blocks. If you’re interested in customizing your set or if you are missing any parts (4 planks, 5 blocks), please reach out to us at info@radchildrensfurniture.com.

We appreciate your ongoing support and your valuable insights. We look forward to working with you again soon!
