Cute & fun, but flawed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were excited to play with thos RC beetle!
I put batteries in both the car & remote.
It drove well and was easy to control.
However, the car is made of very flimsy plastic. The remote has no off button, so the batteries just keep going until they run out.
Batteries aren't exactly cheap, so we won't be playing with this much.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great for kids!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me start by saying… YES! An RC car that’s geared towards girlier colors and interests! Love that.
Also love that this can be used indoors or outdoors. We put this thing to the test. Up steep ramps and down them, ramped my daughter’s ankles quite a few times, and chased the cars for hours. It was really given a thorough testing, let me tell you.
The controller- feels a little cheap. It’s very lightweight and has two joysticks in them but on goes forward and reverse. The other goes left to right. The front wheels turn only. And the outer body is a flimsy plastic shell that’s shaped like the car, rather than having an actual body. Which is great in terms of speed and not slowing it down but bad in terms of lasting and durability with animals and children in general. 🤪
It did come with the batteries which I love- but the instructions state 45 mins of play time and it takes quite a lot of batteries for that. It was like 6-8 AA that go in the bottom of the car compartment and then a 9Volt goes on the remote. Thats expensive for 45 mins of play. Now I will say we surpassed that time frame and still had juice in our batteries to continue playing but I was done 🤣 so that might tell ya something. The compartment under the car was weird in the fact that it took me two different sizes of tiny screwdriver to get open…. But that’s nothing more than an inconvenience when you have kids excited to play. There was also an on off switch on the cars underbody to power on/off. Which is great cause the remote doesn’t have one. When the car is on the remote will pair or link to it but you finish playing and turn that switch off under the car and it’ll put the remote into sleep mode. Green light blinking means battery is on but not connected to car. Solid green light means it’s connected. Simple enough.
There’s also one little white toggle like spot under the car- if the car starts to pull one direction or the other while driving in a straight line then you nudge that switch to realign the cars “brain” if you will 😅

Verdict is in and we love it. It’s fun. It’s fast, it’s addicting to play with even as an adult. Teaches hand eye coordination with having to learn to control and move without crashing… much like a video game but keeps them off electronics or gets them up and active while they do it. Not sure how well it works on super rough gravel yet or loose gravel as we don’t have any to test it out on but will update as soon as we try it out somewhere! For now… 20/10 recommend! You need this for your kids, cats, dogs, etc! We have all had a blast as a whole family with this thing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Sharper Image Pixie Cruiser Pink and Purple Remote Control Car from Influenster, and my daughter had a blast playing with it. Here are some of my thoughts on this RC car:
1. Stylish Design: The pink and purple color combination and sleek design make this RC car visually appealing.
2. Easy to Control: The remote control is straightforward to use, even for beginners. It offers precise control over the car's movements.
3. Good Speed: The Pixie Cruiser has a decent speed for indoor play, making it suitable for racing or maneuvering through obstacles.
Overall, the Sharper Image Pixie Cruiser RC car is a fun and stylish choice, especially for those who appreciate its unique design. It's perfect for indoor play and offers a smooth and enjoyable remote control experience. While it has a few minor drawbacks, the pros outweigh the cons, making it a great addition to any RC car enthusiast's collection

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My little one loves it because it’s her favorite color. I like the rugged wheels, it can be used indoors and outdoors. It’s also quite fast. I only wish that it was rechargeable. But overall awesome toy for my daughter.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The design of the Pixie Cruiser is whimsical and eye-catching, which immediately caught my child's attention. The inclusion of a remote control is a fun way to engage kids in interactive play.
