3 out of 5 stars OK toy   July 26, 2010
It's fun to play with, but it gets pretty annoying if you don't want to hear it. If it gets accidentally pressed in the night... well, then. It wakes you up right away. Who wants that to happen? And I don't recommend running it on carpet. It gets carpet hair in the wheels... so... yeah. It stops. Otherwise, it is a fun, collectible toy that's pretty durable.Zhu Zhu Pets Hamster Pipsqueek - Yellow here is another zhu zhu pet.


3 out of 5 stars A Hoot, But Supervise Play for Under 4   April 26, 2010

I avoided getting sucked into the Zhu Zhu Pet hoopla over the Christmas season but eventually caved. My children's cousins owned a couple of them and they were all having a blast watching this little hamster make squeaky noises and run around. A week or two later, we were at the mall and picked up the pink, "Jilly" hamster.

The way that the hamster senses that it's run into a wall and needs to back up reminds me of a Roomba. Smart little hamster! I've observed an almost 2 year old, 3, 4, and 5 year olds all having a great time. However, be aware that Cepia, the company that makes the Zhu Zhu Pet, recommends the toy for 4+ year olds. While researching for this review, I found out that the Zhu Zhu Pets were almost recalled for a high level of antimony, which is a dangerous metal. Though the Consumer Product Safety Commission deemed the toy safe, I would probably still keep the toy away from younger children who may put the toy in their mouths, just to be safe.

We had to return our Zhu Zhu Pet after just 2 weeks because it worked only intermittently. It would make a high pitched noise and would not move forward unless we gave it a little push. We just ordered a replacement online and hope that this one is a bit more durable.

Zhu Zhu Pets are definitely fun little toys. Though some kids may not be that entertained by it, I think a vast majority will. And as with all toys, make sure that it is age appropriate and that play is supervised. We are responsible for our own kids' safety.

My daughter recieved this as a xmas gift and rarely plays w/ it. The "stupid mouse" as she calles it, scares her.(shell be 3)she gets pinched in the wheels (which have a very strong motor) almost every time she plays with it. She would rather have me turn it on and put it down so it can chase her while she runs screaming.

An adorable little toy that the kids just love.I bought this and a few others for birthday gifts for them and they let them run around the house.The dog used to chase them but now just ignores them.The kids put them in ,I guess,a hamster house and they run around from one cage to the other.Mostly they just play on the floor with them.Truth be told I like to play with them too.They are adorable and I bought them on sale at Target and they were no where near the online prices.

This is basically a pile of cloth on four tiny wheels.

I don't understand why they call it the hottest toy, but my 7 years old lost interest in 2 minutes. I don't blame her.

Find something else, this is not worth your money!
