Rated 1 out of 5 by from Very poor product We received it as a gift. Great idea and looks like lots of fun until you get the thing half way built and find out that the wrong size screws were supplied for the holes. Was there any quality control for this product?

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Difficult and easily falls apart during assembling. screws were difficult to screw in. A few of them didn't even screw into the hole to hold pieces together. The red wire fell out of the motor while assembling. We had to disassemble to attach the wire.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Students enjoyed putting robots together. Had to find something to grease the gears, but overall project was fun!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I gave this as a gift to my grandson at Christmas. I thought it was a great concept! As of yet, he has not put it together, said he will soon and I'm sure he will enjoy doing so!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from This was a Christmas gift for my very inventive grandson. Unable to rate it as a finished product but he was very excited when he opened it

Rated 2 out of 5 by from We had a blast putting the robot together but, the wind was sucked out our sails when we flipped the switch and nothing happened. We had Uncle Roger(electrician) test the battery and motor and they are both checked out good. He suggested to re-solder the the wire contacts. My point is that my kid is no longer interested in the junk Santa brought him.
