Dr. STEM Toys - Kids ATM Savings Bank – Electronic Piggy Bank with Bill Feeder, Coin Counter, and LCD – Educational STEM Toy for Children 5-12

This product is iffy.. some of the numbers don’t show up accurately. But my child still loves it so I didn’t bother returning it.

Wanted to teach three 7 year old boys how to count, deposit and save their money. Thought this was a great idea by making it fun. First, it’s all plastic. Not the end of the world, everything is plastic. It kinda puts it in the realm of not worth the price though. Next, I was having one of the boys say out loud what he was depositing as he did it and the balance as displayed. I corrected him a half dozen times before asking him to show me the machine so I could confirm what he was doing thinking he was pushing the wrong deposit button for the cash ( like pushing the one instead of a twenty) I reset the machine to zero and began to deposit bills. It misread to the tune of 20 bucks. Then I deposited coins. It misread dimes and Pennie’s and in some cases it didn’t register the coin at all. Maybe I’m being petty or expecting too much but it kinda defeated the original purpose of the machine in the first place. Seems like the only person who learned a lesson was me…..to the tune of a 150 bucks. I’d send hem back but the boxes went out to recycle already, so I’m not sure what my options are. Besides, I have been screwed returning multiple similar items on the same order in the past.

Purchased 3 for Christmas gifts. One did not function. Imagine how that went over for 3 boys. Ordered another one, did not function. Purchased again and that One came in functioning. They are cute. The boys rally do like them. When they work they are great.

The first one didn’t work but the replacement was fine. Counts the money as you deposit it and keeps track of balance. Deducts total withdrawals. Great way to teach kids about banking.

It's a very cute machine, i like that the volume of the beeping can be changed for sensitive ears. The little included card is needed to add funds to the ATM, which is great practice for real banking but I give 3 stars because my child already lost the card somewhere in the house, so any additional change inserted into the machine isn't being counted. When the card is in, its a great counter and can tell the difference between coin size. My child got pretty eager and was putting in coins pretty closely back to back and even at that speed it registered every coin. I'd like a version that could continue to accurately count even without the card installed, that'd be a perfect 5 stars, but since you need to stay on top of keeping the card close by I'd detract stars for ease of use and independence for the child, or save this for more responsible older children.

I bought this for my 8 year old grandson for Christmas. He loves it! Easy to use and very convenient. Of course it isn’t really for adults in my opinion. More for children.

Great for saving money. Doesn’t register bills over $20, so if you have $50 or $100 bills you have to use $20s & $10s and physically put in the 50 and 100 bill into the till. That is the only thing I didn’t like about the machine.

If you wanted a mini bank for you kid to let them know how much they have inside, this isn't for you. This should be more of a toy for a younger kid. Our daughter kept getting frustrated that the machine would start to receive a bill and then it would stop but still count the money as if it went inside the bank. We had to keep telling the bank that we withdrew a bill and start over Coins would also back up and you wouldn't know and get stuck together inside the slot. The bank would continue to count or not count and we would have to take all the money out and start over. Being that our daughter wanted an actual bank that she could rely on, this ended up being more of an annoyance. This should only be used for a child that doesnt care about the accuracy and just wants to play.

Really great product, works exactly like a real ATM

This was cool but my kids seemed to be to old for it they are 14 & 11

Ma fille aimait bien l’idée d’avoir ce type de banque mais la caisse bogue souvent et gel parfois

The idea/concept is great to get kids excited about saving money. The reason I’m giving it a 3 is it’s not the best design and they don’t have a button for all the bill options.
