I bought this as a gift for my 6 year old nephew. He absolutely LOVED it! It’s a joy to see the excitement and happiness on his face when he opened the box and saw the product. I especially love that it syncs seamlessly with his iPad and he is taught to build the robot step-by-step. It was easy enough for him to follow along with the instructions. When he needed help, his parents who are not tech-savvy, were able to help him. As an aunt, it’s reassuring to see him play with something that is helping his brain develop and grow in a positive way and not just mindlessly staring at the screen. I would recommend this as a gift for all young kids.
We bought this JIMU robot for my 8 yr. old son. He was super excited to see a robot that he can build himself.
He with his dad really enjoyed building it out using their iPad instead of a paper manual. It is so much fun because you can see the simulation on screen and touch and rotate the images while building robot at each step. So it is easy to visualize and also drag and drop makes it easier for kids to program it. At the same time it teaches the basic concepts of programming and coding and how robots work etc.
The JIMU robots are very cool and innovative toys which helps to develop kids' imagination and interest in coding. And all this while using their favorite tool i.e. iPad or phone.
My kid loves Legos so I thought this would be something he would find interesting and enjoyable. It was really fun building the robot with him! I wanted something slightly more challenging than LEGO’s and this is it. Really rewarding once its built and you can control it with the iPad. Love it!!
My nephew is already loving his robot. Plus it's a great way for him to follow in his uncles footsteps as a developer!
My son loves Legos, so I figured this was a great step up...I was right! He loved building this & is having a great time with controlling & learning new things his robot can do! A wonderful gift for an imaginative child!

Description
Rumble, crush and plow into the new UBTECH Builder series: OVERDRIVE kit. With this kit you can create buildable, codable robots like DozerBot and DirtBot or design your own JIMU Robot creation. Download the free JIMU app that has step by step, 3D, 360° building instructions. The fun is extended with the blocks coding platform, allowing kids to build and code these robots to perform countless programs and tricks.
This was a fun project for my 9 y.o. and me. It took about 90 minutes total to assemble. My son is still learning the coding thing, but he already has ideas of how to modify the robot, or simply add functionality. I think we can actually do that, but not totally sure.
Will update when I find out.
This may have been the best Christmas gift we purchased!
My son has always loved building with legos or other instructional toys. The Jimu Robot showed my son that the building part was just the beginning! The interactive instructions on the app were incredible! He could twist and turn the digital images to know exactly what piece to use and how to put it together. The coding instructions were so helpful and also educational. You can do the coolest things with this toy! My son has pulled this robot out everyday to try new tricks. I love that he is having so much fun and learning at the same time. The Jimu Robot is money well spent!!!
great gift for my 17 yr old
Kit are well made....option of bot to create. Software/Code easy to download and create.
Will buy again.
It was easy and fun to put together, my 7 year old was able to put it together using the iPad 3D plans.
