Really good set

Ease of use:For my 6 y.o. son was brilliant. He spent all month with this toy, created something new and showed friends

Great hit with my grandson

This is a first-rate set, robustly made. The well-produced manual gives excellent descriptions of the 62 experiments and explains the principles of what happens. It is good fun and highly educational. For an enquiring child this is the best introduction to the subject, rather than rushing into the proliferating electronic and robotic sets. This year's favourite Christmas present.

Great

Got this for my nephew's birthday & he LOVES it. Spends hours just playing with it. Both following the instructions & just trying his own little experiments. If your kid is inquisitive this is a must. Seems good quality too & instructions are easily followed by children.

Great kit

Bought as a Christmas gift for my ten year old son. A lovely starter set and he has had hours of fun. Now he wants to expand on it. Would recommend to a friend.

No packaging and spoilt by label

Item turned up in no packaging so clearly visible what item was and label stuck on front of box! This was supposed to be a gift but label being stuck on front of box ripped whilst trying to get it off made it look awful! £45 wasted really. Box also looked ragged around edges and pieces missing.

Christmas pressie

This seemed to go down well with my 10 year old grand daughter. She was lighting up the bulbs in next to no time, so she seemed happy with it.

Disappointing! Can’t recommend.

This is overpriced for the content of the plastic components and the very basic experiments. Delivery was poor - I was shocked to receive the kit unwrapped with a label stuck to the box. As it was a birthday gift for my Grandson the batterrd unwrapped kit was very disappointing.
