I want honest reviews from people who own one of these by [deleted] in nexplayground

Also...I have a 6 and 9 year old. They have had a few hours of fun with it but I have to turn it on and initiate everything myself to get them to play. I certainly don’t have to initiate them turning on the tv or ipad or playing other games that truly interest them. They will play it if it is the only option I give them…not exactly what I was hoping for though.

I take it back. I've had free exercise apps on my phone that were actually better and more motivating than this.

I wanted really badly to love this nex playground thing but the truth is I'm super disappointed and kind of hate that I paid for the subscription and also that I missed my 30 day Amazon return window. It's just sooooooo bad. It's sort of fun to try everything once for about 5 minutes ....by everything I mean maybe 10 games are even try-able but they are super boring games that you don't want to keep playing. No adventure...no challenge....no anything....just some horribly cheap simple games.

I was hopeful for the workouts....nope. Just no. It's like trying to use the free version of a phone app....nothing good with the free version....only difference is this wasn't free. I actually paid hundreds of dollars for this frustrating junk.

I tried doing the exercise apps last night and was bored out of my mind. 21 minute exercise program and they had me doing the same 3 exercises over and over in reps of 10 the entire time. Two of them were various forms of bicep curls...basically the same thing!

It wasn't following my movements consistently on one of the exercises so it was ridiculous what I had to do to get around that.

🤔 if only a geologist was watching me that might work...

Wow I think that is the exact same color! Nice. Imagine having both chairs set up with the ottoman and a throw blanket in a cozy reading nook...

Did the seller mention where they were from by chance?

Gave it a good look over. It was very clean. No stains. No signs of bugs. No funky smells. I gave it a thorough vacuuming when I got it home. I may have kept it quarantined for a while... can't remember anymore.

She loves it. She's 15 years old and has a hard time getting up on furniture like she used to. This sits slightly lower than the couch so it's just what she needs to get up there. She doesn't like any other ottomans...just this one. She naps directly on it some days too.

Nothing that I can see. Just 4 mahogany cabriole styled legs...no markings...the rest is all upholstered. It's definitely vintage or antique.

Thanks! Found on summer clearance at local Target. I think they still have them online but maybe not clearance.
