One of the best robotic kits you can get for the price!
I have over a dozen similar robotic kits and this one is one of the best for a couple of reasons. One is that the end result is very cool! Another is the amount of parts and the detailed instructions included to build it. You will learn a lot building this kit. Some lots have very lackluster or incomplete instructions but this one is pretty good. As far as coding you can use block coding or up to python which is a full scripting language.This one’s a winner!

One of the Best Kits I’ve Seen in 12+ Years
I have been involved in competitive robotics (and robotics education) for over 12 years. — This is one of the best kits I have ever seen.It’s meant as a ‘second’ kit not a complete beginner kit although you could use this as a first kit.For the mechanicals and electronics this kit uses mostly what we call COTS parts. (Common Off The Shelf) You could buy most of the parts from Amazon and make your own kit. The laser cut acrylic chassis parts for the base and the arm are custom and the electronics are on custom breakout (mounting) boards. But more or less the components are common. The engineering comes in making sure they all work together and the custom pieces fit properly.On the software side they give lessons with three different programming environments (languages) and the student can work their way up to a very advanced level. (python)ACEBOTT bills itself as a robotics education company not a toy company. I can see why. There are hundreds of pages of documentation with this kit. (The first tutorial is 98 pages.) It’s like enrolling in a college course, not buying a toy. Sure the kids have fun while they learn but make no mistake, you can use this kit to do a whole lot of learning.Overall the instructions (really lessons) are great with one exception. They are obviously not written by a native speaker and it’s painfully obvious. But if you look past that, the lesson content is amazing.Once assembled, the arm worked well and seemed fairly robust.As far as the price goes, adding up the parts in my head, the price is very close to what the base parts would cost you. But that does not include the lessons which are priceless. The price is a bargain.It’s near impossible for me to give you an age range on this. An interested 8 year old with LOTS of adult help would get a lot out of it. I’d think 6th-7th grade the lower limit if they are learning solo. You do not need to be a geek parent to help the kid. You can use this kit to learn too.Overall this ACEBOTT kit is another in a very impressive line of kits that I can recommend without reservation.

Bad engineering, doesn’t really move, needs $15 battery sold separately
Bad engineering. Not strong enough (or legs long enough) to lift the body off the ground, so can’t actually move forward/backward. See video. Don’t get the spider. Very disappointed 9 year old after a lot of work.Firstly, no 8 or 9 year old is doing this independently. Have a pair of needle nose pliers or jewelry tools, tiny tiny nuts and screws are required. Second, after spending the better part of two days together, it is a pretty big fail. It isn’t strong enough to lift the battery beneath so it can’t move anywhere. It basically can twitch back and forth.Was hard right out of the box. We will never purchase from this brand again.1. There are NO instructions. QR code does NOT take you to instructions. Takes you to their website where you have to find it buried in there. 2. Once you find the right tutorial for what you bought, you need to download – which in my case kept trying to require Dropbox- which is annoying. Any other place has a PDF to download or YouTube video links directly. That is not a big ask so this falls VERY short of expectations (even if it did work in the end) 3. No battery, and it requires a Flathead battery – not cheap and would rather have that info at the same time as ordering so we don’t have to wait longer to build this. So you can’t build it without buying additional parts for $15 – which I did NOT see in the description. If it was listed, I missed it. I could have bought this when ordering – or at least understood the additional cost to getting this running.If it did actually move around would have been 3 stars. As it was. Big fail. We might try to return. I feel this was really misleading product. Zero stars. Sad kid.

ACEBOTT QD020 Science Kits Spider Robot Building Kit review
This is a review for QD020 Science Kits Spider Robot Building Kit, also offered on the same page as the 4DOF Robotic Arm Kit, but this is the only link available for a review.I got this spider robot kit to put together with my 13 yo granddaughter and her dad., and we had a great time doing it. The pieces fit well, but the instructions were complex and technical. It’s a hands-on project that teaches kids about gears, motion, coding and simple robotics while keeping their attention the whole time. It is complicated, in my honest opinion, and I would think above most younger kids abilities. Great project for older kids and their adults.

No power adaptor
you have to buy some special battery and the charger for the battery as well, which is quite some extra effort and money. It would be better that it comes with some power adaptor such that it runs on 110v.

Super Fun and Really Cool STEM Project
This robot kit was such a fun project for my daughter and me to build together. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and the app added a really cool tech element to the whole thing. It honestly felt like we were building something straight out of the future. I love that my 10 year old can learn about engineering and coding while actually enjoying it. The quality feels great, the movements are impressive, and it’s just a really cool educational toy all around.
