As a teacher, I bought this hoping to introduce my students to robotics in a fun way, and it mostly lived up to that. Honestly, the reality was better than my expectations in terms of durability and how engaging it is for hands-on learning. It integrates well with common programming boards, so I could set up simple tasks without much hassle. However, the lack of detailed guidance meant I spent extra time figuring things out, which cut into class time. For the price, it's a solid choice, but I wish it came with better support materials. It's been a hit with the kids, though—they love seeing it in action!
- Pros: I honestly expected this kit to be complicated, but it was surprisingly easy to assemble and program, making it great for classroom use. The movements are smooth and precise, almost like it has a mind of its own, and the metal parts feel really sturdy, so it can handle a lot of handling without breaking.
- Cons: The instructions could be clearer for beginners like me—I had to guess on a few steps, which was frustrating. Also, it's a bit too heavy and bulky for some setups, making it hard to move around easily.
