My four year old enjoys the jacket and helmet but does not play with the toy fire extinguisher, toy bullhorn, name tag or badge. The jacket has three velcro tabs on the front to keep it closed. The jacket is machine washable and is trimmed with reflective material. The back of the jacket says "Fire Chief". The jacket was a bit smaller than I thought. My son is four and is of average weight and the jacket is a little on the snug side. The helmet is adjustable. This has held up well to normal play. The cost is normally around thirty dollars. Melissa & Doug Fire Chief Role Play Costume Set
I bought this for my 3 year old to wear for Halloween and have for dress up for a while to come. It is nice quality, the jacket is flexible and soft - not plastic. The helmet is heavier duty than his other fireman's helmet and can be adjusted for size. The props are fun. They don't stay in the velcro loops all that well, but what 3 year old would leave them there for long anyway? The siren sound effect on the loudspeaker isn't appallingly loud and it's fun. That's what it's all about.
Received thisMelissa & Doug Fire Chief Role Play Costume Set costume for Christmas present. Bullhorn was stuck and could not turn off. Also the sticker on the side was half scraped off. The bottle lid cross threads and will not close securely. Costume looks nice, but don't expect anything from the accessories.
Overall, this is a good quality product, compared to other similar products available. I love the fact that the jacket washable and not made of plastic. The hat is a little flimsy and the toy horn is really loud and annoying. We had to cover the horn up to muffle the sound, since our son loves playing with it.
We bought this as a gift for a 3 year old boy. He loves it! It comes with a fire extinguisher and bullhorn that he uses to put out "fires" and save dolls. The coat is a little large but he will grow into it soon enough. Great toy for pretend play.
I bought this for my son for a halloween costume. I was worried that it would not fit him because he is a small 3 year old (36" and 28 lbs)and i could not find any sizing in the description. I was impressed with the costume and the quality. I had to roll up the sleeves a little bit (which did not look akward or bulky) and the jacket is slightly long, but he looks too darling in it and we got a lot of complements. the bonus was the little toys that come with it...they just attach to the jacket, so he did not have to carry it in hand while carrying his bag of candy. I did not put batteries in the megaphone thing because i read in the reviews that it was annoying, so i did not EVEN show that to my son...he just pretended to shout in it. it's worth the $$--he always wants to play with all that stuff on. the hat is adjustable, which is a plus since I can never find hats that fit his large cranium. good buy.
This is the second Melissa and Doug toy we have purchased that has stopped working shortly after we purchased it. The toy bullhorn literally lasted an hour before it broke. I'm tempted to send the whole thing back. I would say don't purchase anything from Melissa and Doug that is supposed to make sounds.
This costume is great and I love that it comes with toys! Just a word of warning - that bullhorn looking thing comes with a REALLY loud siren sound. REALLY LOUD! Not the best combination w/a 3 year old boy! But the jacket and hat are excellent quality and the fire extinguisher is cute too. You might just want to hide the bullhorn/siren before you give it to your kid...'
