This is plastic. The plastic in the jar I think would break easily if dropped on the floor. But still recommend it. Fun to see the counter count up the money total as you put it in. It comes without batteries as many items do, just be sure to have some on hand. Over all I think this is a cute bank a...nd kids can count their money before they drop a coin in and then see if their total was right. Great for learning how to count money.Read more Less

This toy is worth the money because it works really good and is very durable. It is not only fun for kids, but it is educational. It teaches kids the value of money.It is also easy to use Less

This bank is very well made - the display is large, clear, high contrast, and viewable from any angle. You have to give the coins a firm push, but the mechanism feels nice and solid. After you insert each coin the display briefly flashes the value of the coin you just inserted, then returns to displ...aying the sum. The lid and jar are rugged and well made. I tested a number of coins - $1s, quarter, pennies, nickels, dimes and all were counted correctly. Uses 2 AA batteries, not included. The underside of the lid has a reset button and battery compartment. It takes a small screwdriver to change the batteries. I gave this as a present, and included batteries and some coins to top off the gift.Read more Less
