Opinions on Kid Advance Montessori Materials?
I'm looking for reviews or opinions regarding Kid Advance Montessori Materials. Anyone out there have any? I am considering ordering my maps from them but would like to know how their quality and customer service is. Let me know if you've ordered from them and what you think. Thanks!

Hello Susana!! I buy the following Materials on Kid Advance: Cylinder blocks, the Knobles cylinders, small rods, sandpaper letters (both capitals and small letters on the same box)!! And the materials are beautiful, great packing!, and I receive it in a week!! (I'm in Puerto Rico) that's good. I love it and they have the best prices.

I think they must have come on the scene after I stopped teaching....I've never heard of them. But if the maps are made of wood, they are probably great quality. I was talked into buying all Nienhuis materials, and it ended up costing me a small fortune -- so if they are made of wood, go for it if the price is right!
ReplyDeleteI just got some from them. They sustained some corner damage in shipping, of which KA asked me to send photos. Otherwise, I recommend them!
ReplyDeleteThank you all for sharing your feedback and input! I feel more confident about making a purchase with them. The costs can get pretty outrageous with some of the materials. It's nice to have less expensive options.
ReplyDeleteI emailed them pictures of the damaged corners and they said thiey would be sending me new puzzles! I am very please with Kid Advance (assuming these come throught.)
ReplyDeleteI was not pleased with my Kid Advance items. Some of the items were not accurately described. I tried to discuss returning the items and they were not willing to listen. They charge a 15% restocking fee and are not willing to negotiate at all. I would not buy unless you were very sure that you wanted exactly what they have.
ReplyDeleteI recently ordered some items from Kid Advance and was not pleased with the quality at all. I tried to return some of my items and they were unwilling to negotiate with me at all. They charge a 15% restocking fee so make sure that you know exactly what you are getting. I was very disappointed with this company.

ReplyDeleteI bought sandpaper numbers and letters from them. I was very pleased. The shipping was a lot faster than some other budget Montessori places I've ordered from. I'm going to order my next round of materials from them.
ReplyDeleteOh my. The pink tower and brown stair I bought were peeling and denting from out of the box. I wrote them immediately- and can not even describe the response. Truly unbelievable. I reported to the BBB.
