Over the years, I have purchased many of this type of product for family and their friends. My first impression of the Keychain Factory is how colourful and informative the outer packaging is. This makes the product very appealing to children and their parents. It shows how the product can be used and all of the accessories it comes with, just over 250 items. There is a QR code on the box, which takes you to a YouTube page where you can watch the keychains being made. This is really useful if you are struggling with the instructions.

Inside the box, you will find a colourful keychain factory; everything slots together easily, the instructions are really simple to follow, and a six-year-old could manage it by themselves. There are a lot of little beads, so keeping babies and smaller children would be advisable; it is recommended for ages 6 years plus.

The box contains little instruction cards that explain how to make the different knots for each keyring design, plus a large colourful instruction sheet showing all of the different keyrings that they have created. The instructions are quite easy to follow; however, a little bit of adult supervision may be required at first. As I said, the factory comes with a whole host of accessories, such as beads, letters, different colour and shaped carabiners, and little bottles that you can fill with tiny matcha cups or beads to make aqua charms, along with 10 different coloured paracords. The instructions show 10 different keychains that can be made with this kit; however, you are always free to design your own. With so many accessories, you can let your imagination run wild.

I sat with my niece whilst she set the factory up. It took her around ten minutes to set up, with all of the little beads and cords in their correct spots; the actual keychain took us about 15 minutes. At first, she found the knots a little bit fiddly, but she soon got the hang of it. She really enjoyed being able to mix up the designs, and the great choices of beads, carabiners and paracord available with the factory.
As I said before, I have purchased a lot of this sort of toy over the years. The Key Chain
The factory has to be the best one yet. Even though the actual factory part is just plastic, it is fairly solid and really colourful, which is very appealing to young children. The factory comes with over 250 accessories, which means you are able to recreate their fun designs or make up your own. If you follow their instructions, you can create 10 really good, colourful, stylish keyrings.

The Style 4 Ever, Keychain factory is available at Smyths for what I personally think is a very reasonable £19.99. The keychain factory would make a really nice birthday, Easter, or Christmas present.
I would personally give the Keychain Factory from Style 4 Ever, 4 out of 5. We really enjoyed making the keyrings; the instructions were easy to follow, and you get a really good end product, and I feel that it is a really good price for what you get. The only thing I dislike is the hard plastic, as I cannot recycle it at home.

Rating: 4/5
