Product Description This is a great fun way to save for a rainy day! The coin counter can recognise any UK coin and show its value on the LCD screen before automatically adding it onto the total already in the jar. This can help a child count their own money or just be a fun way to keep track of the value in that change jar. A great gift for all ages. Box Contains Plastic Jar with Lid

Not Bad. Not bad at all!
Right, so, first things first. I've read the reviews of the product, and having now bought one to start stashing my change against the purchase of a new PC at work, i'll be the first to say that it's neither exceeded, nor undercut or undermined, my expectations.I'll try and update this review with factual information only in future if i can or if i need to, so the salient points are as follows:I won't be trying to insert any 50p coins any longer. They simply register as £2 coins. I transmute any lesser gold I have into £1 coins or £2 coins (the genuine article).10p coins also seem to be suffering a similar fate. They register occasionally as either one or two pound coins.The mechanism has limitations. If you're hoping for an all-seeing device which is capable of identifying each nickel or dime you send through the slot, this isn't the machine for you. It needs a bit of help, which is okay. From your own side, identifying these flaws in the product will help you in terms of determining which coins do well in terms of passing through the slot, and which don't.The actual watercooler container which houses your change is not bad. It's a bit smaller than i had imagined, but i'm fairly sure it's going to do the trick in terms of saving enough loot for a new workhorse machine. I believe the reset on the Digital Display is something like £9,999. So I'm guessing that the manufacturers are hoping, or may have tested the fact, that the cargo hold will indeed keep a solid wad of coinage intact up until the point that you reach a sound 10k.That's about it for now. Just keep an eye on what you're putting in there, as the digital device needs a bit of work to get things just right. I'll give this the four stars, because i was well aware of the limitations of the machine when i bought it. Not disappointing, but not mind-blowingly satisfactory, either.

Love the size but the count is not accurate
The digital counter is not very accurate, but I do love the size of it as it can hold a nice amount of money for your little ones :)

Rather Cheap
This product is as pictured but the quality was nothing that I expected. It felt & looked cheap. I brought it as a gift for something as they liked the one I had (not the same make). I was rather disappointed & decided not to give it as the gift. If you want a bog standard coin counter & you aren't bothered about quality, then this product will do fine.

Not reliable
Jar's okay but counter is a bit temporamental - works when it wants to so often have to empty jar and put coins back in to recount, by which time I might as well have counted them myself. A novelty for children though - may encourage them to save.
