kids love it so far January 3, 2009
Jody Check (greenville, sc)
The mic does have interference and the barbie stuff is annoying, but the kids seem to like just singing into the mic, not along with the songs that come with it. the 'pretend' mp3 players are annoying and the toy works exactly the same without them. A mp3 player doesn't and isn't supposed to work by sliding it into this slot, you are to hook it up via an aux cable to the side - it then does play mp3's but barbie pipes in 'reminding' you to play and she interrupts the regular mp3 songs. Overall my kids like this toy and it's fun for them and that's what matters - just don't expect your nano to slide into the slot and work - b/c it wont.....
 Does NOT work with iPod Nano December 29, 2008
Brian Shipman (Waxahachie, TX)
Here it says, right on the box, "Works with iPod Nano." No, it does not. The tight-fitting iPod sleeve is incompatible with the latest generation of Nanos. It came with no A/C adapter (batteries are required). It does not charge the iPod - the sleeve simply channels older generation iPods so that the headphone jack is plugged in. Very deceptive and false advertising. Very disappointed.
not meant for younger children August 11, 2008

I bought this product for my daughter's 4th birthday not realizing that it came with 2 cartridiges that only played partial songs. It did not specify that it only worked with a 1 or 2 GB 1st generation iPod Nano when I purchased it. It also plays without the cartridges and the only thing the cartidges do is makes it so only certain songs play, but it's only less than a minute of the actual song. Although both my daughters ages 4 and 5 enjoy singing with it... after a while of the same songs playing over and over again it gets quite annoying, and although I recognize most of the songs the kids did not...they are very old songs most of them and they are not kids songs. And iPod nano's are so expensive compared to other mp3 players I wouldn't recommend it especially for children too young to understand that they are highly breakable and expensive. And it will not work properly without the ipod nano. This toy was not meant for young children. And the seller should specify that in order to get the most out of this toy you must have an ipod nano, instread of letting the customer figure it out on their own. Unless you have a 12 year old that is willing to sport around a barbie toy and likes kelly clarkson and leann rimes do not buy this toy and do not buy it unless you are willing to spend another $65-$100 for a 1 GB iPod nano that a 4 and 5 year old would break within a few days.
 Karokee July 26, 2008
A. Dery (La Crescenta, CA)
My daughter who was 2 1/2 at Christmas received this karokee machine. I grew up to all the music on it and she loves to sing along (now 3 years old). When there is an adult in the room she gets on the coffee table and sings her heart out( Girls just wanna have fun!, is her favorite!) She had a girlfriend over, who was inseparable from the Barbie karokee, so we purchased her one for her 3rd Birthday and she loves it, Celebration is her favorite. Some think the music is outdated, but I enjoy it and the kids love playing with it!
Just ok December 26, 2007
Mrs. Mommy (Long Island, NY)
This is a great toy with a great concept, however, the songs are so outdated on it. I wish the songs were more recent. Also, it comes with only a handful of songs and as far as I know there are no other cartridges that they sell separately. Surely my daughter will get bored with this quickly. Also note that third generation ipods do not fit into it, therefore that feature is useless for me. Although I wouldn't want my 3-year old playing with my ipod anyway so I guess that feature would be useless to me either way. But just know that if you are planning on using this feature with your ipod, it will not work with third generations. Overall, a great idea for a toy, and fun at first, but I foresee it quickly being thrown on the bottom of the toy box. If they update the music on this and sell more music cartridges, I think this toy would be a best seller!
