This is fantastic 😍
My twin Granddaughters had one to share already and loved it. So easy to use and great parental controls. So I purchased another one as well. Amazon kids on it is great and the tablet quality is really good. Battery life is great and the screen size.

Good but has a few issues
Good, my toddler loves it and it helps a ton at appointments and when travelling, when toys and colouring have become boring. I will say though, the interface can sometimes go round in circles or apps don't work properly. I'm not averse to technology, I've used a lot of different tech over the years, android phones & tablets, my precious, ancient ipad that I use procreate on, and my pc that I mod my games on but never have I used something so frustrating as this kindle tablet. It is quite resilient though as it's been dropped a few times - in its case. I'd still recommend it. My older child has the same model from many years back which is slow but still working, though still a bit glitchy.

perfect for kids
its a great tablet for kids. while i doubt theres any difference with the more fire table. this comes with a good case incase kids drop it which no doubt they will, giving it extra durability. its functionality and speed are perfect for kids who are just starting out with tech. making it a great value for money.

Brought as a first tablet for my 3 year old daughter, she loved it having the Disney princesses on it.Screen is the right size for her, not big or too small.Easy to set up and keep an eye on what she’s looking at / playing on.It’s not our first fire tablet, my sons had a few over the year so I knew what to expect and we love Amazon Kids, I know they’re safe and not looking at things they shouldn’t be and the choice of apps, games and books is brilliant.HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO EVERYONE WITH LITTLE ONES!

Very disappointed. This tablet is inundated with ads for apps & videos even on the child's profile.
Very disappointed. This tablet is inundated with ads for apps & videos even on the child's profile. And there are no ways to turn them off. My wife tested the child profile and accidentally bought a Minecraft app. It was supposed to require parent approval. Imagine what our 4 year old would do! We purchased this tablet based on online recommendations for kids tablet, but this does not suit us at all. If you don't mind your child purchasing tons of apps and content and you just want him/her to leave you alone, then this tablet is for you. If like us you wanted a tablet where you child could only access curated educational apps that the parents selected with no distraction and no temptation, then I very strongly recommend against the Fire HD.

Brilliant
Present for one of my kids. I was skeptical about buyer a cheaper tablet as we've always had ipads and we once tried a no-brand tablet and the screen was awful and unresponsive. This however, is fantastic. It works really well, the kids love it. The protective case is brilliant for them and I'm sure it will save it from damage at some point. It's nice and light so my daughter doesn't struggle with it.
