I thought it was great
Bought at Christmas for an 8 year old boy. He played with it on Xmas day but wasn't taken by it the way I'd hoped. I'd still recommend to other as I know some kids who loved it and recommended to me

Great for my 7 year old grandson
He busily went about building circuits - not always following instructions - and adding items that should not be there. I foresee quite a few more hours fun with this toy.

Great electronic set

Worth it
Bought it for a Christmas present but gave in and let my son (11) have it now. Wow! It’s so good! He hasn’t stopped playing with it. Would love to get other types too.

A fabulous, versatile, engrossing piece of kit.
Amazing value for money, this brilliant box of electronic tricks is too fascinating, diverse and creative ti be called a toy. The comprehensive, easy to follow guide steers the user with simple pictures to build a broad variety of devices that actually work, from radios to burglar alarms to lie detectors (well - it buzzes!). Suggested age of 8 upwards is probably about right but younger kids with a techy inclination would love it.
