Description of OWI 6-in-1 Educational Solar Kit
The 6-In-1 Educational Solar -- Robotic Kit is an excellent beginner building kit designed to teach how solar power is used to drive a small motor. Children use the 21 snap together parts (no tools required) to build six different working models including an airboat, car, windmill, puppy, and two different airplanes. Solar building kits teach children the benefits of solar energy, while they create a toy that is both fun to play with and requires no batteries. Educators, science museums, and hobbyists will surely appreciate the durability, educational value, and endless hours of amusement for children and adults too! This is a beginner kit recommended for ages 10 and up.Tools and Hardware Reviews of OWI 6-in-1 Educational Solar Kit
Customer Review: Absolute Crap
Summary: 1 Stars
My brother purchased the OWI 6 in 1 educational solar kit as part of his middle school graduation present; needless to say by the title of this review it is junk, absolute crap. First off this "toy" is much more complicated and much smaller than it seems on the box, and as for the recommended age of 10 it would be impossible for one so young. I'm 17, an honors student, and it was difficult for me . Your first hint to its low quality is the large stamp MADE IN CHINA right across the bottom almost as if it's some kind of excuse. Secondly the instructions are worse than those DIY media cabinets from IKEA. They don't even bother to coil the wires for you and if you slip up and remove the twister early, too bad for you. Finally, and probably most importantly, the stupid tiny motor doesn't even turn the gear. In full sunlight all you get is a little struggling, humming noise. Big Whoop! What I really want to say would get this review tagged and removed, but for your own peace of mind and your child's happiness, DONT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!
