Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Perfect Solutions Digital Coin Counting Money Jar
Customer Review: Cute idea, but it doesn't work.
Summary: 1 Stars
I wanted to like this. Right now we are using money as a tool for learning math. I thought it would be fun to use the counter to illustrate counting by 10s, 5s, and even 25, and offer a motivational visual for saving money at the same time. Unfortunately, in the 5 minutes we spent trying it out, we had about a 15% success rate at actually getting the counter to work properly. Either it double-counted or it didn't count the coin at all. It was more confusing having to make the necessary adjustments to correct the readout than it would have been to just count the change. The kids were frustrated, then overwhelmed, then bored. I really try not to load up our house with unnecessary and/or cheaply made junk, and this was a strong reminder of why. The item was a gift, and a thoughtful one at that (since we homeschool), so I was really hoping that it would be useful, but no such luck. Now that I see the price tag, I am even more disappointed.
The primary thing my kids learned about money from this product was not to waste any of it on novelty items.
