Playwrite Science Matters Spider Robot Kit – Build-Your-Own Walking Spider Toy, Educational STEM Science Kit for Kids

Really good for kids enjoyed making it and was very proud of his robot

Bought for a 10 year old. He put it together on his own no problem, said it was quite easy. The trouble was, when he started it, it only walked a few steps and then stopped. We took it all apart and discovered tiny bits of plastic were catching in the cogs preventing them from turning. So when you take the pieces apart, make sure you clean the edges and don't leave little bits of plastic sticking out. Once put back together, it works perfectly. Delighted with it.

The instructions are OK, but you do need to study the pictures carefully. Important to clean off the "tags" on the cogwheels where they were joined to the sprue (a light touch with a nail file does the job). I made the leg assemblies in pairs - otherwise I would have had a lot of right legs! The assembly was straightforward and best of all - It worked fine : no adjustments or tweaking needed.

Such a great little kit. I'm really impressed at the ingenuity that led to this cool design based on just a little motor and 6 gears.

We bought this as something to do with my 7yo son during a school holiday. Fun to assemble and easy instructions to follow. Altogether it took us round about an hour. However, after having used it for one day, it gave up the ghost. Couple of issues a) the motor is just a little bit too weak and b) the cables to with just twisting them. Really it would need better quality wires soldered to the terminals. However for the price, what can you expect.

My son is 13 absolutely loved building this and hasn't stopped playing with it for 7 days. Cutters were not needed as the parts could easily be twisted and snapped off board. Instructions easy to follow. It took him just under an hour to build by himself with no help. Definitely a thumbs up and lots of thanks and cuddles. My son is slightly behind so I don't shop for complicated kits. Start easy and build up there confidence. I wouldn't recommend to a child below 7 as they will get bored pretty quickly unless they are into kit building.

Easy to build and good fun for the kids. Nice stocking filler for the price.

Great toy. Instructions quite difficult for a 9 year old. Very small parts and quite fiddly. All come in sheets of plastic which you have to snap out which i ended up doing at hurt 9 year old fingers and nearly broke some bits. My 6 yo daughter was holding it whilst on and her finger got caught in the mechanism- managed to pull it out but thought would be an a&e incident 😬 so not suitable for younger kids.

Schlechte Qualität und sehr schlechte Beschreibung!

Bra ingångsträning för en 10:åring

Tiene poca fuerza el motor que lo empuja pero funciona correctamente. El motivo de comprarlo fue para escanear las piezas y hacerlas mas grandes con una impresora 3D y así poder incorporar la placa de arduino y un motor mas potente. Recomiendo su compra. Es un juguete mas para mayores que para niños.

Entrega rápida. Era para regalo. Quedó muy contento. Es un juguete para niños, pero debe montarse con ayuda de adultos.
