 Safe, yet fun December 28, 2008
Our Bow & Mallow did not come with the red plastic pellets. I was expecting that they would break pretty early on with vigorous use, but they are still in great shape! They fire miniature marshmallows (NOT full-size) from a clear plastic magazine. They can be a little uncomfortable if you shoot them at point-blank range, but are otherwise harmless. The only problem is that younger children will need a little help stringing the bows. The plastic arms are pretty stiff and the string needs to be threaded and wrapped around the ends - definitely not a one-kid job.
Oh what fun.... December 16, 2008
My son got this as a gift for Christmas with the pack of red pellets. We had 4 different mechanical men trying to figure out how to shoot the bow without it getting jammed every time. We almost gave up on it because we figured that the marshmallows definitely would not work if the red pellets did not. I decided to give the marshmallows a try before sending it to the land of misfit toys. It is definitely a "marshmallow" shooter. It worked great. No jams at all. It is a great gift. Every boy gravitated to this toy even when it wasn't working. My son is 5 and he can work it well. I think any child younger than 5 would have difficultly pulling the bow back.

this was a fantastic idea. the marshmallows tend to get stuck either in the tube or in the chamber so it requires a lot of effort to actually get them to shoot, but it's still just fun to have around.

UPDATE: A peice broke off that keeps the suction. I was watching when it happened so I know he wasn't doing anything too rowdy with it. Fun while it lasted.
This thing is great. It was a hit at my son's sleep over. I bought generic marshmallows and did not have any problems with it jamming. The marshmallows really fly out of the thing...not vast distances but 20-30 feet.
Only negative is trying to locate all the marshmallows after they have been shot off. (I don't want ground in marshmallows all over my carpet.)
Great Fun for all ages November 21, 2007

This is one fun bow and arrow. You need not worry about the marshmallows hurting anyone, even if they're fired at point blank range. Everyone from the adults to the six-year olds in our family loved this toy.
We did find a couple of drawbacks. The marshmallows get jammed fairly easily, and you can't reuse the marshmallows once they've been fired. Also, the bow doesn't shoot with much accuracy, especially beyond about 15 feet. That's not to say that these negatives detract from the toy's enjoyment.
