Nice-looking and adorably stem toy
The robot is very cute. We assembled it with my 9-year old son, and it was much fun. We could not figure out at the beginning, how different modes work, but in the end it worked and my son spend several hours playing with it! The plastic is sturdy and high quality, the instruction are well written. Would definitely recommend!

Decent quality, educational, satisfying, inspiring
Great. Slight issue with one of the axes of motion, but was fun to build with my 5 yo (although I admit I did do most of it!). I'm not gonna say it's the most impressive interactive robot, but my expectations weren't too high. We took care when building it, and the fact that it's almost all plastic doesn't matter.

Don't buy
Not well made. Surprisingly difficult, and a bit annoying. Once we finally built it, things just broke or weren't functioning.

Fun to Build, But Not Built to Last
This little toy robot is super cute and was really easy to put together—great for a quick, fun activity. The pieces snapped in without any trouble, and the design is adorable. However, it doesn’t stay together very well. Parts tend to fall off with even light play, which can be a bit frustrating. It’s more of a display piece than a durable toy, but still a fun build overall.

Kids enjoyed it
Great project for the kids. They had a blast building it. Quality isn’t there but I was going more for quality time with my son so it’s great.
