Summary: Don't waste your money!!
Comment: I bought this keyboard and software set plus some extra games for my daughter when she was a year old (she's four now). I was completely disappointed with the purchase and I paid about $100 for everything. We put it away for a while since we moved and just rediscovered it again thinking that we might find something interesting out of it but not in the slightest bit - in fact, it made me feel even dumber. The people who created the software must really think everyone is dumb and rude. I never found anything educational about it and the characters are the worst you could imagine. If you like playing a game that never goes anywhere for hours of boringness this is for you! There are lots of better computer toys out there like with VTech and Leapster or buy your youngster a Story Reader and you'll get much more bang for your buck. If I could give it a negative 5, I would. One of the worst products I ever bought.

Summary: My daughter loves it!
Comment: This toy is definately different. My 2 year old daughter loves it! She plays with it several times a day. It keeps her interested for short bursts. Not really something that should/could be used without supervision. I thought it would have a lot more to interact with, but all in all it is a pretty good toy. Wish it had more keys!

Summary: First computer experience at it's best!!
Comment: I heard about Comfy Easy PC from a friend and purchased one for my 18 month-old nephew, Jack. There are times when reading and pointing to pictures is great and times when watching Sesame Street is good too. But the Comfy Easy PC is perfect for all the other times as it lets us work together in an interactive way. He is learning so much and knows all his colors and shapes,is counting to four and already puts together meaningful sentences.

I wonder about Stephanie's review and am curious as to why she kept purchasing software titles if she was so unhappy. It's difficult to understand how anyone could have a bad experience with this innovative product. We are raising the computer generation and there is no question that without computer literacy our little ones will not prosper. The Comfy Easy PC starts them off young, but starts them off in the right direction. Jack sits on my lap and we work together, learning, laughing and having fun....What better way to teach our young??

Summary: Toddler loves it
Comment: Purchased for 19 month who is fasinated by computers. She went through the program that came with in in 1 day and became bored with it. Put the My Home on, and it has lasted over a week now, but I can see she will need some variety. She interacts with the program and has greatly increased her talking skills. "Knock, knock what's in the box" is a big favorite and she has even learned to say the phrase. Level 2 of this program has the same things, but the child is expected to press the same key multiple times (cued by the program) to make things work. Have not tried level 3.

The overlay for the keyboard was a problem for several days. She would even sit on it so I could not put it back on the keyboard. However, she learned that the pictures on the overlay help her to get the right scene that she wants and now (after 1 week) leaves it on the keyboard. The keyboard makes a regular computer usable by a very young child and that is what really makes this work! We are using it on a laptop, but a desktop computer would be better, so the child could touch the screen (and show where Boo is hiding).

I do agree that the software could be better, but then so could most things. So far, have not found any offensive language, but have only used the 2 programs. I also looked for contact information on this company, but only found an email link - very poor customer relations!

Summary: A winner!
Comment: My two-year-old daughter loves her computer! We started with the 1-3 software- the one that came with it, Let's Imagine and Home Hunt. Those are more interactive it seems than the 3-5 software, but she really enjoys World of Colors anyway. She thinks it's funny to make a purple banana.

The only negatives about the older software is the use of the word "dummy" and "move" as another review mentioned. Also, the World of Colors just has one level. The younger software provides more variety with the levels. The software that comes with the overlay can be frustrating to you and your toddler at first. My daughter wouldn't leave it on the keyboard at first but after a couple of times learned to accept it and use it appropriately. Now she knows which overlay she needs with which game.

All the software is easy to change into another language which has been a great reinforcer for her Spanish class as well.

The rude comments on the software has actually opened up a discussion with her about what would be better to say or what's nice and what's not.

My daughter spends at least an hour with it each time she sits down to it which is about once a week (I don't allow her to use it more than twice a week).

The main thing is that it reinforces colors and shapes and creates a fun environment that holds her attention. Plus, she loves being in control of the happenings. I don't feel guilty setting her in front of it while I try to get something else done because it does provide some learning.

It's better than just watching a TV show, but of course will never compare with human interaction.
