Review: Well made learning toy - Beautifully boxed and packaged. Well made, educational toy. A little pricey, but there's a lot gone into designing and making. If I had anything negative to say at all it would be that the instructions are really for adults, far to complicated for a child to understand.
Review: Best product for young kids - Our son loves sammy the robot. The first base was faulty but when I inquire about it, they send a new base without even asking questions. Thank you!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best product for young kids

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Almost perfect coding for young children
*by S***K on 11 March 2020*

Bought as a present for my young son. This is a really good fun introduction to coding and robotics. To make it work you use cards to 'code' the robot. Place them in a card 'track' and the robot reads them, then you place the robot on the grid-map, built like a jigsaw of large card squares. The robot calibrates itself before heading off, and continually calibrates itself on the squares, so there's no veering off course. There are bricks which you use to build different robot characters and its friends. The instructions are also a storybook which keeps children engaged. I downloaded the instructions from the manufacturers website before buying. Batteries last well. Positives: Cards make coding very easy and visual. Different robot designs keep things interesting and fun. The different sounds, movements and lights are cute and fun. The robot continuously checks and stays on course, so this is fine for playing on a table. Really good instructions. Negatives: The cards are too thin. They become disconnected too easily on anything but a hard surface.
