Pros & Cons
Pros
Great gift for a newly minted 7-year-old. Bought this for by grandson turning 5. My 5 ye old loves it.
Have only recharged once, and had a little issue, but took out the batteries of the remote and closed back up and worked great. It runs fast, easy to use remote control and the battery recharges quickly.
It bogs down a bit in high grass but is surprisingly fast on smoother surfaces. Only dislike about the car is that you have to remove 4 screws from the bottom to take the battery out of the waterproof compartment.
You won't be disappointed. Super cool. Very neat vehicle. Overall very happy with it.
Cons
Tried all 4 permutations of possible battery orientations just in case it was labeled wrong to no avail. It's also really inconvenient to charge the battery.
Don't waste your money on this overpriced toy. Only good for donuts at that point. No help from our particular seller either.
Reviewer couldn't get it to go over small mounds of grass. It constantly got stuck on a regular size garden hose. The remote warns that it is not water resistant.
Highlights
Quality
This toy kept a very active little boy busy and happy
The car does not steer too precisely with the remote and if you are not careful with it the delicate trigger will break
I am mildly surprised with this purchase
Requires a screwdriver to access the battery compartment that comes with the toy
Competitiveness
Sturdy and the vehicles climb like a champ
