Love this product - I give 4 stars for the following reasons:- I haven’t fully explored all the functionality (ie coding ) - user issue (ie me) and I should not fault the makers- I had quite a few problems initially and realized late that batteries were the problem. Fresh batteries always resolved my issues. Again user issue but I think it may make sense to recommend rechargeable a (because they drain quickly when working with groups and you don’t have a battery life indicator)- I find children really love to ‘personify’ the robot so giving it options like facial features as an add-on accessory would go very far with an American audience, I believe - yes, I use LEGOs to do this but it may be something to consider for your R&D teamAll in all - an incredible and very powerful (and very affordable) robot that can be used to teach many age groups. Also great for tinkering. I personally need to devote more time to exploiting the options but I think it is so cool to show kids how this robot relates to those found in many distribution and sorting centers - they even look alike! Thank you for helping bring more STEM to more kids with Edison robots!!
