Discount Play-Doh Plus Color Set, 8-Pack

Customer Ratings:

...and that would be my decision to ever purchase this product. Play-Doh Plus will seduce you with its softness and malleability, as well as its assortment of colors. But make no mistake PDP will leave you with nothing but regret, and cause you to reconsider certain choices you have made in your life that led you down this horrible, horrible path.

PDP is not durable at all. It will stick to everything, making it impossible to clean up, as you would with normal Play-Doh. And if you leave it out overnight, it doesn't even harden properly. It just sort of....crumbles. And it will get EVERYWHERE. After normal use by average children, Play-Doh Plus can be found in more places than cheese in a Pizza Hut pizza.

I have been attempting to clean this up from our family's last molding misadventure, but at this point, I am considering burning down my house and taking the insurance money. As it is, I am just tired and alone, playing Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" on repeat.

Please learn from the valuable experiences of others. Regular Play-Doh is a fantastic product, and has withstood decades of children molding, shaping, and eating it. But in the 21st century, some marketing wizard who deserves a pink slip came up with softer Play-Doh, and is ruining the lives of everyone in its path.

Stick with a good thing or a bad thing will stick to you.

I have family full of kids who love their Play-Doh, and when we recently got the Play-Doh Sweet Shoppe Frosting Fun Bakery Playset, it came with two samples of the Play-Doh Plus. It said it was easier to extrude for making fine details similar to decorations. The kids were eager to see what they could accomplish with this cool new stuff in the neat purple tubs.

To describe it, it feels a little more dry than regular Play-Doh, with a bit of a stickiness to it and less a tendency to adhere to itself. When we put it in the extruder tube, it came out easily (not as hard to push through as regular play-doh) and held its shape. However, it was hard to clean out of the tube later because it tended to coat the sides with a thin layer of Play-Doh. Normally you can use a ball of Play-Doh to "pick up" loose pieces, but we were surprised to find that the loose pieces didn't adhere to the ball of Play-Doh that well.

All in all, I didn't see the point, but my son asked me to buy him more of it! If you want to make very realistic frosting for some reason, it seems like it is a good solution and works well. But for general fun and enjoyment, just stick with the classic.

If anyone has an obsession in which they love scraping the inside of play-doh molds with toothpicks, you are welcome to have my 8 cans of Play-Doh Plus. It's not sticky enough to itself to be gathered up as regular play-doh, but it sure sticks every where else! I spent 3x as long cleaning up the molds as my preschoolers spent playing with it. Stay with traditional Play-Doh.

Honest reviews on Play-Doh Plus Color Set, 8-Pack

This Play-Doh is definitely soft as the description stated, but was almost too soft for my kids to use in their play-doh gadgets. Once inside, it was difficult to clean out. I love play-doh, but would probably just get the regular doh next time.

Didn't hate. Didn't love. Grandkids didn't like the stickiness of it. Easy to manipulate, but think I'll buy the original next time.
