A natural extension into the future for Lego
on January 5, 2018
Posted by: builderTPA
I had put off purchasing this for my older son even though he wanted it because I thought it would just create dust, I was wrong.
For any child that grows up building Lego's this is a natural extenton to move them into the future within a farmiliar atmosphere which makes for great success. Not only is he building and creating at home but has school projects based on the same MindStorm set as part of STEM, he even gets help from his college sybling who is in engenering and used the same set in an intro to robotics over the summer at the University.
Investing in some batteries is minimal compared to what they are getting out of this. I would highly recommend this to any parent because you're not buying a toy your giving them a great start and if the interest is there MindStorm let's it flourish.

No battery???
on November 17, 2017
Posted by: Sceffi
Ok for this amount of money, you could have included a battery... and cable.
We bought my daughter the robot it she can't play with it because we have run out of batteries. It's sad really that you charge this much and cannot include a battery. And now it will sit unsused for at least a month until I can afford one and in the mean time, I get to explain to my daughger why I bought her a toy and basically have taken it away.
I'm trying to encourage my daughter in robots and STEM but you make it difficult. Thanks!

It is one of the best robotics kit that is very easily programmable. You can explore your creativity with this kit. It has a good drag-n-drop programming experience. Good for increasing the creativity ideas.

An incredibly well designed and challenging set
on May 28, 2017
Posted by: Nightmarlin
The Lego Mindstorms EV3 is an awesome piece of lego construction. Mine has been configured in the TRACK3R and SPIK3R modes, and both of them are an absolute joy to use.
As SPIK3R, the Mindstorm had some issues navigating non-solid surfaces (eg carpeted floors) , but made up for this by having an incredibly accurate launcher attached to the tail and excellent movement in the leg sections.
The TRACK3R's capacity to easily construct new contraptions to use is very well appreciated too, and the versatility this provides sources excellent entertainment.
Alongside these, the Control Brick is amazing to use. The only downside is the rate at which it consumes batteries, as prolonged use often leads to the product requiring a whole new set of batteries. The IR remote provided with the product is quite hard to get used to, but once you get over that it is quite amazing to see just how much LEGO have put into this product.
The only downsides to this product are that it can be quite hard to get the cabling to fit perfectly, which can be a source of annoyance, and the companion software is quite slow to run on my PC (but that is probably just my PC).
Overall, a great product that I would recommend to any LEGO fan!

PERFECT ITEM!!!!
on November 25, 2016
Posted by: legomaster1738
This is an amazing thing to have. I highly recommend it to people who love lego. there is 1 thing which is weird. The brick has 4 motor ports but 3 motors come in the pack.
In the mindstorm NXT there are 2 touch sesors in 1 pack, but here is one.
The computer software is ONLY AVAILABLE FOR MAC & WINDOWS COMPUTERS!!!!
I LOVE IT...
