1 Star Not worth the hype
My daughter wanted these after seeing them advertised on TV numerous times. If you buy the toys for regular price at Wal-Mart or ToysRUs then it’s not so bad because they are very cheaply made. The funhouse comes unsnapped frequently–very cheap plastic parts. The hamster ball is also cheap and comes unsnapped, and the hamsters flip on their backs frequently and you have to open the ball and put them back on their feet.

The hamsters themselves are cute BUT they flip over alot when used with the component pieces and you have to put them right side up to work. They are also a bit noisey–you can hear the wheels. My daughter lost interest in them very quickly. Paying more than the base price for them is paying way too much—especially the component pieces. She has the funhouse, the blanket, the carrier, the ball, the surfboard, and the car, plus all 4 hamsters. We bought everything at once.

In summary, don’t pay these outrageous prices for a cheaply made toy!

4 Stars Real Toy review!!!
This is the base toy for all of the Zhu Zhu or Go Go pets sets… It is the hamsters house.. They know what room they are in and act accordingly.. Brush teeth in the bathroom and sleep in bed.. This set has kept my children entertained for hours!!! It has gotten me out of having to buy a real Hamster and when they don’t feel like playing with it – they don’t have to or feel neglectful. No smell and no buying food.. I can not wait for the babies and outfits to come out. They be expensive right now because of the high demand. but still well worth it. Enjoy!!!

5 Stars AWESOME FUN! My little girl LOVES these Zhu Zhu pets!!
I purchased the entire set and my daughter ablsolutely loves them! She plays with it constantly. She is 4 and takes the pets everywhere she goes…just really, really cute!

1 Star FRAUD and Price Gauging
Item promised by 9/3 and didn’t ship. Same product listed as instock, but prices raised from $79 to $300 from several vendors. Checked on line again today the price is listed as $100+ Price gauging! I’m shocked and dissapointed that Amazon would allow their integrity and reputation to be destroyed by dealing with these companies. I will not order through Amazon vendors again. Don’t buy this toy from Amazon if it is through a different vendor than Amazon.

5 Stars Zhu Zhu Zooming Through My Room!
Picked up two of these guys the other day since they happened to be in the store and I happened to be in the store. A little bit of background first: I’m a 26 year-old collector of many things including robotic pets. I’ve tried out Furbys, Micropets, Neopets, Scoozie pets, Petal-chi, Mutsu, Fureal Friends, and more so I consider myself a bit of an expert on the subject.

To start with, these things eat batteries, have triple A’s on hand. Second, I don’t have any playsets, I’m just testing the hamsters.

Upon opening and removing this little guy I tried out “cuddle mode”, which was a little disappointing. The hamster will lie still and make cute noises every few seconds or so but he isn’t really responding to anything. “Try me mode” is when the hamster is off but you can push his nose to hear a random noise, not a lot of fun there. Now play mode, that’s where the fun is. The wheels are fast and the grip is really strong, I promptly put it on my boyfriend to see if it would climb up his shirt and it did, hit the back of the couch, made a springy noise and ran back down. Even he cracked up at it. It tackles carpet and all hard surfaces no problem, and makes a ton of different noises, some 40 in all, and each of the four designs sounds unique!. You have to be careful around stairs but all in all it does what it was made to do and cheaply at that. At normal retail they’re cheaper than most action figures.

(I got mine at normal retail and I suggest you wait until you can too. If you have kids and can’t find them try giving a cute IOU written from the hamster saying how it will come to live with your child after X-mas. They have a guarantee from you, you have a kid who still has something to look forward to after December. All is well.)

Remember these are for ages 3 and up and have motorized parts. It says in the instruction to supervise your child, so do so. Risk is probably minimal but if you have a kid you wouldn’t give a RC car to then they’re probably too little for these.

So to wrap up

Good: Funny and varied sounds, cheap, cute, runs fast and randomly, fascinates my dog!

Bad: Hard to find (for now), eats batteries, can pinch, can be broken with a moderate impact.

Have a hamster good day!

5 Stars A rodent on wheels
This was purchased for my daughter. I was afraid it would be one of those toys purchased then set aside. It’s funny and makes cute noises, is responsive to being petted, and rolls all over the house.

Still, it is now a dust collector after a month. If only we could convince the child to contribute to her own college fund…. sigh….. anyone want to buy a slightly used rolling hamster???

5 Stars A cute little toy
My daughter has been saving her allowance for the last few weeks hoping to find these and today we stumbled across them at TRU for retail price. For the $10 price tag she’s been very entertained this afternoon. The creature makes a variety of chirping, beeping, and random noises as it whirls around. It works much better on a tile, vinyl, or hardwood surface than on carpet. You can either have it in a cuddle type mode where you press its head and it chitters at you or press the back and it’ll run around randomly. It’s a sweet toy although noisier than I expected. The store clerk said that production is supposed to meet demand in a few weeks as Christmas draws closer. For $10 we’re happy, but I’m not sure it’s worth 2 or 3 times as much as it is a rather simple toy.

3 Stars BUY THEM @ WALMART FOR $8!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
uh- they r just now (9/11) hitting the market and are $8 for the pet $10/15 for the acessory and $20 for the funhouse! I found all of it at Wal mart and Target is getting it…

5 Stars Fun for hours!

5 Stars so cute
“very fun in the apartment.. we did not have room for the cage, and when we go on vacation no worries!”

5 Stars We love our hamster Leroy!
First of all, we bought our hamster at The Cracker Barrel [...].(No it wasn’t on clearance.) Secondly, we love him! I saw him and thought he looked fun and thought the kids would get a kick out of him. My 3 year old was terrified of him at first but she loves him now and I’m pretty sure she thinks he’s real. My son who is 7 has fun with him too! He makes his way around the whole house and it’s just like he’s our pet hamster minus the mess and smell! Just a warning though, make sure your toddler knows not to put the hamster on their head. haha!!! My daughters hair got wrapped around the wheels and he was stuck on her head. It was hysterical but she lost a chunk of hair… But all is good. It was [...] well spent.

4 Stars Fun toy
Our school fundraising event had this item as a gift for selling 50 items. My kids are lucky to sell 5. My daughter was devastated as she really wanted this toy. So for Christmas I bought it for her and she loves it! It really is fun running around the house and our dogs sure are entertained by it. It was well worth the $7.95 plus shipping we spent. I have a very happy 8 year old who didn’t have to sell $1000 worth of junk to get it!

5 Stars Price Rip Off
I saw this in the Memphis airport for 12 dollars in the store. I did not have time to stop and buy but they had it for 12 dollars plus tax. This vendor is a rip off wanting over 50 dollars for it. And we all thought airport stuff was overpriced.

This is a great toy for my son as he is allergic to cats and dogs and other pets that he wants. He loves this and follows it around the house.

5 Stars Lots of fun!
The kids love it, we’ve had it for awhile and they still play with it like it’s the first day they got it, all their friends want one now too! It wasn’t too expensive, and best of all, no vet bills! Need I say more?

1 Star Don’t Waste Your Money
These accessories are for a hamster “pet” toy that is dangerous and should be taken off the market. There is no need for these accessories as the hamster should not be picked up by a child. When petting the hamster, the wheels can easily engage and start spinning rapidly and change direction randomly. This can and has caused severe pinching. The wheels don’t release, either when caught on even a 1/2″ thickness of skin. You have to rip the toy off you if you get caught in it. My grand child was almost scalped playing with the hamster when it caught her hair in the wheels, did not release and started climbing to her scalp. If she were not under close supervision at the time, she would have ended up in the emergency room with stitches. This hamster doesn’t need a bed and blanket. It needs a glue trap.

3 Stars Hamster carrier and blankets
I got this at Wal-Mart for only five dollars, why are you guys ripping us off here, just because we are now on the hunt for Christmas stuff? We work hard for our money, and certainly won’t waste it on this item that’s 800% more expensive than regular dept. stores, not to mention your shipping is out of anyones price range!
