Comments about Robotic Arm Engineering Kit:
My six year old picked this out. He loves taking electronics apart and putting hem back together. This was a fantastic toy to build with him. It taught him assembly and engineering concepts. Once assembled the robotic arm is sturdier than I had originally thought. He loves remote control items and is gentle with his toys. It says or 13+ on the box. He put it all together himself with my constant supervision....it took him about 4 hours. It would take an adult around 1 hour to build. One con is that the screw pieces could have been labeled in a better way. This set came with numerous screw types that were very similar in look but 1/16 of a mm different in use making it difficult to tell them apart.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
