 Worth Every Penny November 20, 2009
Mark from Minnesota (Minnesota)
Yes, at first these seem overpriced at almost a $1 a piece, but they are worth every penny. You are paying for the innovation and convenience... they are very well designed, high quality and hold the tracks very well. Think about how much you spend on the trains, table and other accessories and these clips are worth more than $1 a piece!
The real value with 4 and 2 year old boys is being able to create really cool elevated layouts without the tracks coming undone... "Dad! Track broken!" Without the clips all the other stuff would not get used much so would be a terrible waste.
We use a Nilo train table with Nilo jacks. The jacks allow you to do up to 3 elevated sections on top of one another and extend the tracks off the table. This adds a lot of variety and infinite possibilties for the table and makes it way more fun for the kids and grown ups a like. Again without the clips this would not be possible. We have 3 boxes which is 42 clips and that is enough to secure all the elevated sections on our most extensive layouts... you don't need to clip the tracks laying flat on the table.
If you install the clips pointing the right way they work excellent to hold ascending track sections and elevated Y switches. I have needed to modify a truss bridge to accomodate the clips, that was just a matter of cutting small notches to make room for the clips.
Suretrack November 14, 2009
R. D. George (Ft Worth, TX)
I got the Suretrack locking system in a 3 pc. package deal with a wooden train track and train. I bought it for my grandson (3 yrs old) who is out of state so I haven't actually seen the product. But my daughter says he plays with the set daily and especially likes the Suretrack parts to hold the wooden pieces together. Said that they were great for holding the "bridge" track pieces together. Hearing from my daughter these are a wonderful part of the whole track setup.
 not bad but needs improvement April 25, 2009

Read the strong reviews on this product and was anticipating something exceptional. The pieces do secure my son's Thomas wooden tracks securely but I did encounter a few glitches. These connectors raise the connected tracks about 1/8 inch above the adjacent tracks that are not/cannot be connected (such as bridges and other Thomas "destination" accessories such as the firehouse and tunnel). This results in the trains catching at these areas where the connections are disjointed. This issue is minor as they secure the elevated tracks together nicely, reducing the number of block supports that are easily knocked over. I do recommend Suretrack but just keep in mind they are made ideally just for sections of track and do not connect at bridges, tunnels, and other destinations.
Nice Clips - they do the job April 3, 2009
Debra A. Julin (North Andover, MA United States)
This clips are perfect for my two year old son. They hold the track down and the fact that it is a temporary solution is great. He has not taken them apart yet and he is the type to do this if he could. I just ordered more. I have to agree with the other reviewer, they are a bit pricey. You need a few boxes to be able to put a good size track together.
 They are very usefull but... February 18, 2009

overall I would say that i was pleased, they are durable, they work, easy to use... but,
First off i think they are over priced nearly a dollar a piece! that's too much! it certainly doesn't cost a tenth of that to manufacture. because they have no competitors they can charge that.
secondly, the track still falls apart on occasion and i am back fixing the problem. even when my toddler is trying to "play nice" it still breaks some times. sometime he takes the track clips as a personal challenge to get the pieces apart, but that's not a manufacturing error.
thirdly they don't play nice with the imaginarium spiral train set. they are not compatible, they are too wide for the support columns.
still pleased overall
