Ambulance Review
I bought this toy for my 4 year old as an exchanged birthday gift. He loves emergency vehicles and had been asking for "a rescue vehicle where the doors open and my guys fit in the driver seat". I soon learned on toy store visits this is not as easy an order to fill as one one think. Although "the guys" (which includes a female) have to fit in by removing the windshield,(easily though) or the back door, he loves this toy and plays with it everyday. Although it is more expensive than other models it is defintely worth it and will be challenging enough for upcoming years. I love Playmobil for its durabltity, realistic detail and well thought out versatility. This is the Cadillac of Rescue Vehicles, including a an IV, collapsable stretcher, fire extinguisher and much more. Be ready for at least 30 min of assembly, but if your child is prepared for this it can be a great activity in itself. You have to really check all the little bags for the clear tubing etc (we almost threw one away!) There are even 2 med kits where you even place detailed stickers inside! I work at a hospital so my son wants to know what every detail is called so it is a great toy for building vocabulary. An example of how well thought out Playmobil is; there is a flashing light,( which my son knows is exactly 3 min.. so it can be a timer as well!) but no siren, which is a blessing for parents! Also, I could not find this in any store, it was only available online. I would highly recommend this toy.

Poor quality - Elena -
My 5 year-old son has two toys made by Playmobil. Both times he got the toys he was very excited to put them together. Unfortunately the excitement was repeatedly followed by great disappointment when the parts did not fit or aligned at the proper places. I don't know if his ambulance is the only defective one but the doors do not close properly. I see the similar quality flaws with his rescue helicopter where the parts do not fit in well and fall easily. It takes so much to loose interest in bad quality toys. I do not recommend the toys made by Playmobil.
Grandson loves it - K. Kayaks - SE Alaska
This was a gift for my 4 yr. old grandson. I was a little concerned about all the small parts. His parents suggest that it would not be appropriate for a younger child, but he is able to manipulate most of the parts, has help with others, and will grow into being able to use them. He is very much into "emergency" people and things and told me the ambulance is "cool". I think it is a gift that will last and stimulate his imagination for years.
rather durable and often fought over - Ellene Salvatorelli - USA
I have two young boys and they both love this ambulance so much that I'm considering purchasing a second one because they frequently argue over who gets to play with it. It's very durable. The doors have been pulled off multiple times and easily pop right back on without much effort. Over all it's a well made, detail-oriented toy.
