We wanted to get this toy for our older boy but never got around to it. So with our next boy we decided to go for it. We were so excited!
We had trouble finding one that worked properly in the stores (there weren’t many to choose from– they must be popular!). When we got it home we realized we somehow picked one that didn’t work. I can’t remember now if the light didn’t work, or wouldn’t turn off, or if it wasn’t making the sounds. Looking online we realized that it was a very common problem. We took it back and traded for another because we really thought it would be a fun toy. On Christmas morning, the new one didn’t work. VERY frustrating, because it’s such a cool toy! Both our boys were excited about it even though it didn’t quite work.
We gave up and just kept it anyway.
So fast forward about a year… it’s been in storage for a while (I was rotating through our toys). I brought it out and it doesn’t work at all– no lights or sounds. So I put new batteries in it. Now it’s working just as good as new. I’m wondering how long that will last? Oh well, my boys are still enjoying it. I just can’t figure out why it’s so fickle? I really think it’s just poorly made.
So be prepared if you end up buying this toy– it’s not likely to work for you!

We purchased this for our 11 month old son. He is fascinated by the lights, sounds and loves to push it along as he crawls. It is durable and well made; I have little doubt he will get several more years of play out of this toy.

My 1 year old LOVES this toy. It’s both a train (with very realistic train sounds – not annoying) and the perfect flashlight. Not too heavy. Light turns on and off when you squeeze the handle. It does not roll on its own though. Another good feature is there is no off switch, so the very young cannot be frustrated by a toy that “doesn’t work” (is turned off).

My 17 month old loves watching Thomas on TV. Most of the toys are for age 3+, so this Light & Go Flashlight is perfect for him. He has played with it every day since he got it from Santa this Christmas.

I purchased the Thomas Flashlight for my grandson and two nephews (ages 3 & 4). They are all big Thomas fans and loved the flashlight. It was nice to have a toy that worked right out of the package. They were able to play with it immediately. It is still going strong after two months!
