Pros & Cons
Pros
It appeals equally to both son and daughter. It does a good job at centering itself when a child places it crooked. It has a built-in stem to keep it in place.
The instruction book is very thorough and easy to follow. There are some pre-designed scenarios that you can follow step-by-step instructions to create, with included props. An optical scanner reads your instructions in the order that you laid them do... Read More
This is a legitimate robot, it has a sensor that runs autonomously based on the code your child writes. This means the robot's function and look can be greatly customized opening a range of possibilities. I am very pleased with this robot, how sturdy ... Read More
We adore that this is a stand alone product that does not require us to contribute our phone or tablet. And all without the need for a complicated tablet app or any such thing.
The robot can be built with lego technic-like pieces to look like different things within the stories of programs. They're exceptionally reusable, as you can even pop them out and reuse the same tiles later in your code without resorting to complex lo... Read More

Quality
I am very pleased with this robot how sturdy it is the amount of customization it allows just everything
I highly highly highly recommend getting this set if you want a good quality kit that will build a great skill
The construction feels hardy enough to withstand even the most brutish kids and the whole thing has the feel of a toy to them

I would give it five stars but i’m going with four because of the lack of storage containers and the fact that it’s priced a little high
Second at 117 at time of writing it seems a bit pricey but there are a lot of pieces 30 included experiments of scaffolded diff... Read More

Weve played with cubetto beebots and beginning lego ones and this tk set really checks all of the boxes

There are two types of cards the programming cards and the course layout cards
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The course layout cards are the big ones and have different things on each side
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
So when you are putting together a layout you have to hunt through both sides of about 20 cards
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
That’s fine for the older kids but the little ones get distracted
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
My solution is to number each card with an a or b for the side
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Then i went through every layout in the book and wrote the card numberletter on the diagram

We haven’t worn out the cards yet but we will
