OWI 3 - in - 1 All Terrain Robot lets kids build and alter their own mobile robot! The 3-in-1 All Terrain Robot allows inquisitive youngsters to create and recreate: put it together, take it apart, make another module... it's all about flexibility and intelligent thinking! But luckily, kids don't have to be robotics engineers to create and achieve. With the 3-in-1 Robot, they learn as they play! The 3-in-1 All Terrain Robot is a multi-function tracked mobile robotics kit that kids build themselves. Utilize different track modules and make your robot transform into 3 amazing variations: the forklift, rover and gripper. Using the wired controller, you can command the robot to move forward, backward, turn, grip and lift. Includes everything you need, components and clear assembly instructions. For children ages 10 and up. Requires 4 "AA" batteries (not included). Warning: Choking hazard, for children 10 and up. Order yours today! OWI 3-in-1 All Terrain Robot
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.
You can trust this review, i hope you can try to buy this product and then you know this product good or no. Next time you can make a review for another people.
Good Intermediate Robot - Recommended
This Robot is well made. Good Quality. It took us 3 hrs to assemble everything (normal pace). My Son is 6 yrs old and its difficult for him to assemble. Especially the screws and stuff. This Toy states this is for 13 yrs.
Be Careful while attaching Chains on the wheels. They are tricky and has potential to break if not careful enough.
Pros:
Good Quality Parts (Be careful when attaching the chains though)
Teaches how to assemble a Gear box with single and double motors
Teaches how to build a Remote Controller remote
Gives ideas to kids on the internals
Good Instructions
Cons:
Slow movement. I wish the motors could have been a little faster
No Lights. Its a 3-in-1 Robot, one or two red or green lights would have been cool
Some kind of sensors would have been good
Less expansion capability out of the box
No place to stick the battery for Gearbox or Arduino Nano etc (for Normal applications this might be OK)...

Robot Kit Fun
This robot is fun to build and goes together easily. It brought back the pleasure of assembling kits and the kit is well thought out and designed. It also has the potential to be used for constructing other robots, but that is a hacker exercise; it should not be hard to make it into a rc controlled device rather than a wired controlled robot. It would make a good parent/child project. I haven't tested its playability with my grandchild yet, but I suspect it will hold her attention for a while. The main value would be as a good project to do with a child. It requires some patience and attention to detailed instructions. It would go to five stars if it had rc control; it was a close call. I gave it a three stars for durability but it could well be more durable than that; I just haven't given a child an opportunity to test its durability.
Great Project with my Son
Bought this for a project with my 10 year old. His second electronic/robot project...first was robotic arm. He was able to put most of it together himself. Like all of these kits, the instructions can be a bit challeging sometimes...mainly because tiny nuances of parts positions are shown in a picture, but not emphasized...so sometimes you end up wit the flange or screw hole facing the wrong way. If fixing a doorknob is beyond your capabilities...this kit isn't for you. If you are reasonably mechanically inclined, you'll figure it out fine. Best part was when I noticed a few days later that my son had converted robot into to a different vehicle all by himself.
Summary: A few hours of time well spent with your kid results in a robotic toy that teaches them real world examples of engineering and mechanics. Yes..it will break eventually...thats what happens to things your kids play with... but they will remember you building it with them for their entire life.
