My husband loves this! Only obstacle we have is keeping our dogs from chasing it! Best to use it in wide open areas, so as not to damage baseboards or furniture
These are great to play with and seemingly indestructible. Checkout YouTube for tricks. Get some ramps to crank up the fun. Even the little kids in the neighborhood can operate this.
Our daughter said that her 8-yr old son would love this Sphero Ollie App-Controlled Robot, so we bought him one. He was truly delighted, and uses it frequently. Thank you!
I met my nephews for the first time in 3 years. So I wanted to give them some impressive gifts, this one and a sphero bb-8 droid. Those surely worked and I'm the best uncle now.
CAUTION : check and see if the toy works before you meet the children, if this is a gift for children. It takes a very long time to be updated and be faired with your smartphone at first time, and kids are.. you know, not that patient ;) Also, I'd recommend you to learn how to drive it before you give it to them. It was a little bit tricky to me at first time and it somehow made me from the coolest uncle to a dumbest one...
I ordered this for my sister who is teaching children to code. The children already went through the basics and wanted more! It’s changing the lives of some children. They are challenged and engaged!

Description
Meet Darkside - Devious. Defiant. Diabolical. Dangerous. This is Darkside – an electrical beast that draws its energy from unrestrained competition and reckless abandonment. Command this app-enabled robot with these forces to unleash its unrivalled power. But take heed – the Darkside will overpower anything standing in the way of victory – including its master. You have been warned.
Everything is cool except for the directional control. I'm an RC Pilot and expect decent feedback for this price but constantly battling to get it unstuck after it jams itself into something.
Given as a gift to my son. He enjoys using it. Connects with different phone types.
This little guy, Ollie North, as we've named him, is a RIOT!! I bought him for my husband and he's become a fast member of our family! I find him a bit difficult to maneuver (hence the 4 stars), but with some practice, I'm sure he'll provide lots of fun! VERY cool concept. And, my opinion, more of an "adult" product, than a young child.
My three year old can actually play with this to some extent. He loves trapping ollie in a box and watching him spin. It's going to be a lot of fun in the spring when he's a bit older and we try it out at a skate park!
I love this dumb thing. A super fun toy that will wreck your baseboards. Embrace your dark side.
