Works good, with a few details
Was a fun thing to do. All the parts needed were in the box. The battery connector is reversed so I'm going to have to splice it or fix that. If that is your case you will notice when trying to test the servos, nothing will happen. You need the 9v power to power the board that controls the servos. Small screws to work and big hands make it a challenge, but doable. Use your camera to zoom in details. All fit correctly. Colors for the ultrasonic wires are different in page 14, but they are corrected in page 28. It dances once an stops. Not sure if that is by design or an error in the code or if the board have a problem, will check with more detail next. But overall, it's good for the price.*** fixed the reverse connector... just remove the pins from the connector and reinstall them.

I bought this as a gift for my father who is a programmer. We had no issue assembling (although you may need to use tweezers like us to hold the tiny nuts steady as you thread them) only one minor issue programming but the instruction guide is pretty robust. There are some spelling errors/vague descriptions but overall it is easy to understand. For someone who has no experience with computers or mechanical fasteners they may want to proceed with caution.

I agree with several other reviews that this is not a starter kit. I am a retired electrical engineer and have been working with Arduinos for that last three years. Someone with no experience with Arduino will find this daunting. My problem with the product is Sunfounder. I built the robot and noticed that the plastic washers were missing from the box. I emailed Sunfounder customer service and received no reply. I then contacted Amazon customer service. Their only solution was a $15 partial refund, a replacement or send it back for a full refund. Forgive me for not wanting to see so much time and material go to waste. If I sent it back, Amazon can't resell a partially built robot, with missing parts. So it ends up in some trash bin. Also I lose the time spent building it. A partial refund means I have invested a little less money in a non-functioning robot. To get the information I need to fabricate the missing parts, I am going to have to buy another one. I will now be the proud owner of two robots, when I only wanted one. All I wanted was my four little missing washers. Is that too much to ask? PS: I have purchased and built several other robots from Amazon, one form or another, and have had no problem.

Bought this for my son. He actually might get his hands on this eventually, after I have stopped playing with it. No, seriously it is a great toy. Very educational and fun. The instructions were detailed and clear and everything was packed and labeled very clearly. The hardest part in the assembly was those very small nuts and screws with big fingers. I had to use some needle nose pliers and my daughters fingers to help.

Un robot genial para principiantes.

Viene con un libreto con las instrucciones de montaje, y en la web de sunfounder hay un zip de descarga con instrucciones, los plugins de la placa para Windows y Mac, los scripts para testeo de componentes, caminar y bailar.

Funciona sin problemas con el ide de arduino, pero hay también un zip con instrucciones para Mixly. Además, en youtube hay varios videos con instrucciones de montaje detalladas (sólo hay que buscar "sloth robot").
