Not "original"
A complete piece of useless junk! I honestly don't understand the positive reviews. We had "the original" as children in the '70's, which was made by Hasbro. It had push pins to attach the wheels to an included thick piece of cardboard. Wheels were thicker, not bendable as these. We would play with this hours on end, and never got sick of using it. I was apprehensive to purchase this when I read the description, but I figured I'd give it a try, with all the "great" reviews. The putty used to attach the wheels is one of the most imbecile ideas I've ever seen. I attempted to set this up, and after I saw how lame the setup was, it went back in the shipping box to return. The putty stuck to the paper, raised the wheel just enough for the inner wheel to ride underneath the attached wheel, making it useless. I could go on and on, but I won't. I will say to the reviewers who wrote that this is the next best thing since sliced bread, you must've never seen the original spirograph. If you have, then you must own stock in this company that destroyed the original design. To Kahootz Toys, did you really have to cheap out and ruin such an amazing, creative, genius drawing toy? How much did you save by using putty instead of the original design? The box it's packed in is made better than the actual product. Why in the world???
