This Finn was the single most important birthday gift of my son. I was not thrilled particularly from the outset. The Finn can not very much except water shoot (even if it almost entirely located in the water) and pull on the rope. He seems relatively robust, with us everything is still functioning, but my kids go reasonably with care with the things around. My son is still very proud of this Finn and happy with it, so the money has then probably somehow worth it.
