I made the swap from plastic toys to wood toys a couple of years ago. I did some research and came up with brand names like Hape, Haba, Plan Toys, Grimm's, etc. My personal favorites were the Haba toys made in Germany like their clutching toys, as well as toys from Grimm's which are all made in Germany. Those toys are pricey though. I wondered why Melissa and Doug's toys were so cheap compared to most of the other reputable companies that make wooden toys. I found that first and foremost, most of Melissa and Doug toys are made in China.
I'm not a fan of child labor, so that was a no. I simply cannot bring myself to buy toys (of all things) for my own children to play with when it's made by children in China who should be able to play like mine are able to. Rather those children are treated cruelly, like slaves, made to work in horrible conditions creating toys while being paid a pittance, if that. I furthermore found that this brand also fails its tests. They found lead in the paint used on the baby toys, among other things. So, I have stayed away from the Melissa and Doug brand ever since I learned about how their company operates. They are not a simple mom and pop company like the name would innocently suggest.
Last year I wanted some neutral colored blocks. These blocks kept coming up as recommendations. After a lot of looking and not finding a good alternative, I bit the bullet and just purchased this set. Upon arrival, I inspected it thoroughly. I am very surprised by the quality I found. It arrived in a box which said made in Thailand. The crate, while not the sturdiest, will perform the job it's intended to do.
The blocks themselves are beautiful. Not hollow and cheap, but a good heavy, quality wood. Smoothly sanded down, rounded edges. Just what I was wanting for my 2-year-old toddler. I have a six-month-old baby boy who handles small toys right now. I look forward to him playing with these within the year as well. My 9-year-old will like them fine and play with them, but I will get him precision blocks later. The kind you can really stack very tall and have an easier time doing that. Since these have rounded edges, in my opinion, they are perfect for younger ones who will build smaller creations.
While these are currently stashed away and waiting to be opened on Christmas, I will say I have been incredibly tempted to get them out and just start playing with them with my children. They truly are a five-star product. I cannot find anything wrong with them at all. If a problem arises I will be sure to contact the company and come update my review here.
For a company that is able to put out such a quality product and make it in Thailand, it's obvious they make most of their toys in China with inferior quality since money matters more than quality. Due to this, with the exception of their architectural blocks and depending on where those are made, I don't think I would personally buy anything else from this company myself.

The blocks come in all kinds of shapes and they are smooth and rounded. So there's no need to get into the band-aids, Morgan. You're faking when you say you have a splinter. I'm on to you.
There are enough blocks to share here. I have to keep telling Alex that because he doesn't know how to share. He's my least favorite nephew. How can one kid produce so much snot?
The wooden box that stores the blocks is great to sit the smallest nephew in. That way he isn't touching and gumming up the remote control. It also makes for a fun game when I'm ready for everyone to leave. I simply have challenged the kids by asking who is smart enough to fit all the pieces back into the box, like a puzzle game. Their competitive little spirits kick in and the blocks are cleaned up in about five minutes.
Then they can go home.
Overall, this was a great purchase. It was a cheap and easy way to score points as their favorite uncle.

These blocks are very well made and the kids do such creative things with them. They are worth every penny.
Here's a tip. When these blocks first arrived, I took a photo of each layer of blocks (there are 3 layers) as we unpacked them. I'm posting those photos here, because I refer to them every time we put these blocks back in the sturdy box that they came in. The photos also give you an idea of the various sizes and shapes that are in the box.

Initially, I planned to order more, however, as I played with the blocks with my son, I noticed a significant problem. While sold as "standard unit blocks," the shape and length of these blocks is not consistent. The length of some blocks, which are meant to be the same size, can vary by as much as 1/8 inch. While this may seem like a small difference, it makes structures unstable and makes it almost impossible to build taller buildings using those pieces.
On other blocks, the angles are weird. Many of the triangles differ in length, but also in shape. The larger, flat triangle pieces are supposed to be 90* angles, but they're probably closer to 86*. This severely limits their usefulness in building.
Overall, these are nice quality blocks. Just understand that roughly 20% of the blocks may be far less useful because they've been improperly cut to the wrong length or finished at bad angles.
