Fun and easy to assemble
Great product and easy to assemble! My 10 year old learned a lot from building and testing the car under different conditions. Loved it! Make sure you have superglue on hand to be able to complete some of the steps so you aren't running to the store last minute.

Does its job!
It does its job. My child needed it for school project. The instruction manual can be better, parts are very fragile. Wouldn't last beyond couple of use. It is very pricey for the content and quality.

Durable
Easy to follow directions and durable car. My 7th grader was able to follow the directions and assemble the car all by himself. It is very durable.

Super flimsy and hard to get it to consistently go ...
Super flimsy and hard to get it to consistently go straight - but both my kids won the long distance mousetrap contest at school.

Terrible. Absolutely terrible. I can’t believe how they are still a functioning company
I highly recommend not buying this product. Everything came wrong and nothing was to scale with the measure provided and it wasn’t even cut correctly. There were supposed to be a hole in both sides of the wood but instead only one. I didn’t have enough time to order a new one so I had to make those holes myself.
