 Fun, after I fixed it....Feb 27, 2003
It took me several days to get this one working -- no matter what I used to power it, it just couldn't seem to lift itself. After disassembling it a few times, I noticed that the housing wasn't holding the motor securely and this was apparently allowing the worm gear on the motor to slip off the gear next to it. To fix it, you just need to lay something on the motor before you put the housing back on -- I used a piece of tissue folded many times over. This will keep the motor firmly in place when it's trying to lift the elevator. Ever since, it's worked flawlessly and my kids really enjoy it.

 THIS ROCKS!!!Oct 23, 2004
By Jakestu4u
I bought the power rok lift, and i was worried about the bad reviews. When I got home, I built it and WOW!! It is SO FUN!!! You just need to put the magnets closer to the yellow thing, (Sometimes you dont even need them)and it will work great! (...) THIS TOY ROCKS!!

Fun, but not the best Rokenbok componentJun 22, 2004
I bought this for my kids (...) It came with a broken chute and was missing two black pieces. I exchanged it for another set, and the next one also had a broken chute piece. The little yellow plastic tab that attaches to the building grids just doesn't seem durable enough. The regular building pieces are extremely sturdy. We love Rokenbok, and have not had any problems with any of the other sets, but this particular set seems jinxed and I cannot recommend it.
Lift StrugglesFeb 04, 2003
When I saw that the average rating was 4.5 stars I thought I'm the only one having problems with this thing. But when I read the other reviews everyone said they had problems with this. Our family loves Rokenbok and all the available options but I think this is one accessory to stay away from. It just doesn't work well and goes through batteries.
Love it, but it eats batteriesJan 27, 2003
By Anna
We purchased the Rok lift for our "almost" 5 year old son. He has been very enthusiatic about it from the moment we took it out of the box except for the fact that it "eats" batteries. We have to replace the batteries with alarming frequency, and it will often stop on ascension and have to be restarted when batteries are not brand new. The rechargeable batteries we have are not powerful enough to use. It also, sometimes, does not trip the switch to begin when pushed and must be manually started. We have not had any problems with noise and it works well when it has fresh power.
