Teach Tech Mech 5, Mechanical Coding Robot

Got this as a Christmas present for our 11 year old grandson and he loved it. He has a number of other Snap Circuit sets we've gotten for him in prior years, and they are one of his most favorite gifts each year. All the sets work together, so this just adds to his collection of components and allows him to build much more than just this set. It's a great STEM toy that allows him to be creative while learning. Highly recommend this whole line of products.

7 year old grandson put it together without supervision. And, I was impressed with how well it works. Highly recommend.

Grandson enjoyed the challenge

My 8 year old loves this robot. The programming aspect is simple but fun. The assembly is a bit of a chore though. There are MANY pieces which you have to cut out of a frame and make sure that you get all the barbs off so the gears can run smoothly. I’m fairly good at mechanical things and it took me a couple of hours to make sure it was working properly. I would advise having a jewelry making snips tool, small screw driver, and sand paper on hand for the assembly. Those things are not included. If buying this a a gift I would make sure that an adult is prepared to help the kid assemble it.

My 10 yr old grandson loved it. He assembled it, without help, and commented that it was just challenging enough! He’s enjoying exploring its various functions. I appreciate that it wasn’t something that he was done with in a couple of hours. Looks like it will provide some lasting entertainment!

Kiddo absolutely loves these. My 8yo has a blast using the circuitry and creating new projects. All the snap circuits options work together and there are a ton of add ons for kids who enjoy coding. Overall really happy with this purchase, and my kid is too!

Very difficult to make, even I couldn’t make it for my niece. Not sure how will my 9 years old niece would make it.

Loved this as it teaches your children how to make a mechanical toy
