The Pinbox 3000 is a cardboard kit with a free online instructional video that teaches you how to make a pinball machine. This was so much fun to make and today we will be talking about the packaging, instructions, our first time using it, the uses of the product, and pros and cons of the product.
The packaging of the Pinbox 3000 was very good.. So good that it was almost hard to open. Everything inside of the box was neat and in order. We had no trouble finding anything. It was reassuring to know that nothing was damaged in the travel of the pinbox from the company to our school.
Next, the instructions were very clear and precise. The pictures that were included in the booklet made it so much easier to follow along. We knew exactly what step we were on the whole time. Something nice that was included was a link to a free instructional video. Without this video, we would have had a lot of trouble trying to figure out how put everything together. The video was very helpful. The camera was pointed on what step he was on, so assembling this was as simple as it could have possibly been.
The next thing we will talk about is our first time using the machine. The pinbox 3000 is SO fun. We were so excited when we first got it all put together and working. When we first saw the bag of rubber bands, clips, and marbles, we started to worry, thinking that this may not be as easy as we thought it would be. But in the end, it was so easy to put together. When we actually played with it, we kind of yelled a little because we were so beyond excited that it was actually working and that we put it together correctly.
The uses of this product would be to play pinball, obviously. It was fun to paint it as well. So this could also be used as a tool to bring out the creativity in someone. We painted our pinball machine to look like outer space. Its really awesome to even look at other people’s designs as well.
Some pros of the pinball machine is that it is time consuming, so it occupies you for a while. It is also just really fun to make something out of nothing. Its amazing the things that people can make from something that you throw away every day. The only con that we could think of is the size of it. While it is compact, it is kind of an awkward size. Other than that, it is perfect. We are so happy that we got to review this product. It is pretty fantastic.
