My son has loved this since age 3
Lots of the content is beyond him, but he loves it anyway. He and his dad watch it together.

a great show
i love this show its just so interesting

 
Loved it, but loss respect with the chicks program!!
I have always loved this show but, I have a huge problem with the way baby chicks are treated. Not only should "How it's Made" Not have ever taped or aired it. We should all get together and fight how the plants treat these living creatures as tennis balls! I know I am.

 
Great Show to Foster Curiosity
My 5 year old adores this show. Every time he watches it he wants me to ask the show to demonstrate how another product is made! He even puts on his own "How It's Made" skits for me.

 
A must for most ages
One of the top educational shows on television and great for most ages as they do not talk down, but have the writing ability to educate without information overload that seems to turn most people off. The subjects are those that many people have never thought of, and without such a show, they would not seek it out. Keep up the good work in educational programming. Karen

6yo son LOVES this show
Personally it bores me to tears with innane commentary, over use of stock video footage, and slow pace but it fascinates my son. I let him watch while I go do something else. Absolutely nothing bad on this show. Kids may learn something too.

Ever wondered how gears were made? This is your kind of show!
THIS SHOW IS THE BEST! Whenever I have free time, I look to the Science Channel to find out how everything is made. Similar show are on the air, but this is the best. The only reason I say consumerism is because in some of the episodes (VERY RARELY) they will have the name of the company that makes the product (e.x., on the tuba episode, they showed the King Misic CO.) Sometimes, the company replaces the name of the company with "How it's made". But other than that, IT'S AWESOME!

Kids 8+ Would Understand This Well, Not So Much For 7 and Under.
I love this! The reason why I rated this on for 8+ is because I think kids 7 and under might not understand the concept that well.

Correct wording.
Love this show and watch it all the time. But I wish that Lynne Adems would stop using the words " sodder and centrifical " they do not exist. It should be " solder and centrifugal " If we want our children to learn the right thing please use the correct words.
