Title: 6 year old built it with minor assistance!
Review: It took about 3-4 hours and you have to be gentle with the pieces. Steps are easy to follow and my 6 year old was able to do 90% of the build himself. We helped with the screws and little things like that. you are literally building a robot so it’s not gonna be a 5 minute build lol. It seems a lot of the complaints are from people not wanting to take the time to actually build the robot. This is an introduction to AI and should be met with patience and kindness towards the parts of the robot and your kid. Give urself some grace to, just because it’s for 10 year olds doesn’t mean it will be easy or fast. 💖

Title: Build it yourself. Not assembled in any way
Review: I thought I was purchasing a robot that would come in a box, and all I'd have to do is turn it in, but that's not true. You literally have to put the whole thing together. 4 AAA batteries are needed, they are not included. The instructions are extremely clear, no words just pictures. You will need a very tiny Phillips head screwdriver, like the ones that come in an eye glass repair kit. It says you'll need a diagonal cutter for trimming the burrs off, but I didn't need them. I just chewed them off. If you're able to follow directions pretty well, then it should be fairly easy. All the parts are lettered and numbered. DO NOT CUT THE PLASTIC PARTS IN ADVANCE, because you won't be able to identify the parts when it comes time to use them. When you get to step 2 there will be a tiny gap after installing the motor with connecter (part P13) don't worry that it's not 100% flush. I did that part twice because I thought I messed up, but I didn't.

Title: Robotic friend for kids!
Review: Lots of fun for any robotic enthusiastic kiddo! I think the hardest part for my 9y/o son was getting the plastic pieces free from the packaging. Once the pieces were free, assembly was easy, just follow the directions. The performance was really neat & is motion activated. The sound is appropriate & cute. My son really enjoyed putting this together & playing with it!

Title: It WILL break
Review: Don't buy unless you want to ruin Christmas. Got this for my kids and gave it to them early. The parts are very weak plastic and will break. 5 minutes after we finished putting it together the on button basically pushed into the head and keeps doing it and button is not always responsive. It is loud and annoying to turn on. Follow and object detection works but is buggy. Building it was the only real fun part. Absolutely wish I had bought something else. My kids looked forward to this and it is just junk. They want to play with their robot but at this point turning it on is frustrating, the legs keep breaking (as in the plastic keeps breaking apart), it's loud, and it seems like it constantly is ineed of being taken apart and rebuilt. The time it takes to set this guy up is going to last more than rhe fun you have with it. Extremely disapointed. Would return it but my wife threw the box away. Totally not worth my money or the disappointment it brought us.

Title: Built this with my 10yo.
Review: Great project for a young builder. He had a blast assembling it. It works as described but struggles to walk on carpet. I'm not surprised that it needs a hard flat surface. I would totally recommend this for others

Title: cute but loud
Review: I wanted to give it 4 or 5 stars, but it is so loud. The motors have no padding or sound buffering, they echo in the body making a lot of noise. Other than that it is cute and fun to assemble.

Title: Excellent Fun
Review: A lot of fun putting it together, it walks around the living room, avoids obstacles, follows if you put it in follow mode. Real Christmas hit. Highly recommend if you like building things with your kids, my five year old loves it.

Title: Great for the price
Review: After reading some of the negative reviews before purchasing this for a fun project with my 9 year old I was a little skeptical of getting this, however, I was surprised by the detail of the instructions and the ease of installation along with the quality of parts for the price.It is definitely a parent child project as my 9 year old wouldn't have been able to do it themself, but after a few hours it worked great the motion sensors work very well. The sound level of the robot is not near as loud as some of the reviews made it seem to be.For the price, it is a great value. Make sure you have small wire cutters as you will need them to cut out the parts and remove the burrs.
