Thank goodness this was a gift because I'd be very annoyed at having paid for this. Before I started this review, I checked to see if other people had my problem, a few did, and some said you need to pull the tab in the back or change the batteries. I've done those things, it STILL will not play an entire song. Every song fades away after about 5 seconds. It's a shame cause my son (1 old) loves this thing. We've had it about 6 months, but he's just recently started carrying it all over the place. The major downside is he has to continuously press the button to get the songs to play since they fade away so quickly. I've checked the back thinking maybe there was a switch that said 'Demo-mode', or maybe a tab that I missed...nope. Maybe I just got a lemon, which is a bummer since he seems to like it, but I just can not give this toy a good rating based on my experience with it.

I just purchased this toy for my grandson. As I was trying it out I have found that it only goes up to 5 on the numbers, and "f" on the abc song. The music songs only play for about 5 seconds and then fades out. Is this the way this is supposed to work or did I get a dud? Please help so I know whether to send it back or not.

My son, 10 months old, likes to put on music and dance with me. He normally presses the button on his musical toys and runs to me for a dance. This toy disappointed him because the music won't last for more than 5 seconds after the button is pressed.This is not a good toy for baby who enjoys music.

I saw the reviews and intended to buy two of them as gifts, incl. one for my near 2yo son. He loved playing with it at the store. But I was surprised that it looked like a cheap toy, not what I'd expect from Leapfrog (the online pic is much more slick looking). With that added to the poor quality sound, I just didn't think it would make a good gift and I couldn't justify the purchase for my son. Too bad because it's a great idea.

I loved the idea of having something on the fridge to occupy my little one when I'm in the kitchen. He loves to stay in the kitchen and very interested in things on the fridge. However, this toy did NOT stay on the fridge so it killed the purpose. It seems that the magnets are not strong enough to carry its weight. In addition, my son likes to interact with toys. This one did not offer much because there is only one button that activates the music which makes it pretty boring for my son. The lights are fun to watch because they light up according to music, which I liked. But again, there is not much to engage little ones except for sitting in front of it and watching how lights changes to the music. My son is 11 month-old. For older boys it might be different. I would recommend visiting a store nearby and let your baby (and yourself) play with it to see if she/he would be interested in it. I returned it...

I REALLY EXPECTED DJ MAGNETIC LEARNING RADIO TO PLAY WHOLE SONGS. I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED WHEN I PRESSED THE BUTTON TO HEAR ONLY A SECONDS OF A SONG, ITS A GOOD THING I DID NOT GIVE IT TO MY CHILDREN BEFORE LISTENING TO IT.
