We recently purchased the Fisher-Price Kid-Tough Digital Camera, and were so excited about it.  We had researched the product quite a bit before purchasing it, and read review after review full of glowing praise.   However, from the very first time our 4 year old started using it, we began experience a very big problem: the power button wouldn't keep the camera on.  Push the button, camera goes on for a second, then shuts right back down.  Rinse and repeat, until for whatever unknown reason the camera would start working.  We tried new batteries several times, just to be sure that wasn't the problem, and it wasn't.  Of course, we had to return the camera and buy a different brand, because that kind of flaw isn't something a 4 year old (or anybody) should have to work around.

We were sad that our camera had this problem, because everything else about the camera was great.  The design, the functionality, the ergonomics, all of that was terrific.  However, the one problem the camera did have was a deal breaker.
