Tricky to put up and doesn't look anything like advertised picture, 17 Nov. 2014

The height chart is really pretty but it's VERY difficult to put up. The pictures are semi-transparent so the other colours show through ie it doesn't look as good as the advertised picture when up (branches different colours etc). The stickers are almost impossible to remove without damage once placed so ours have bubbles and a bit off kilter. It also doesn't wipe clean so our daughter's helpful pencil marks cannot be removed! If you can live with this then the overall effect really brightens a nursery but if you're a perfectionist, you may not be happy.

Fun for younger, shorter children, 4 April 2017

I thought a wall height chart would be good fun for my children but this wasn't quite what I expected - this may be my fault for not reading the description properly. I thought it would be a poster that would be easier to put up on any wall, but this is a pack of stickers of various sizes - the instructions say the stickers are not for use on wallpaper or textured paint, which limits its usefulness in my house. We also had very little suitable wall space, as you obviously need somewhere where kids can stand against the chart. It also seemed more difficult to put up than I had anticipated.

When we had a loft conversion built, and a new downstairs wall, providing more walls with smooth paint, I thought again of putting this up, only to realise that the chart stops at 130 cm, just over 4 foot, and that my boys have already literally outgrown it. I also think that as children grow up their tastes may change, and I'm too lazy and skint for something that would revolve...

'All Aboard' -bright, retro looks, measures up to 130 cms. Not suitable for wallpaper or textured walls, 23 July 2014

This review is of the 'All Aboard' height chart sticker set, which features a road design and vehicles. The height chart is suitable for young children of under 130cms in height, and approx 2-6 years of age, older children may well find the graphics too simplistic, stylised and babyish.

Whilst the traffic design is arguably gender neutral, this probably isn't a look that will fit well into a Barbie-pink bedroom. The greens of the trees and grass are typical Sixties shades; the bright red buses and stripey red and white roadsign poles really stand out. Vehicles are the same greens and blue of the trees, grass and traffic signs, multi-colour printing being an expensive process.

The height chart itself is assembled from individual peelable vinyl stickers, the first starting 20cm from the ground, so an accurate ruler or measuring tape is needed to start with to position the first sticker.

As the height chart stickers are added - they have to be applied...
