This is an amazing product that also comes with a great booklet to use in your child’s science curriculum. I love it and so does my son. The kit is intuitive and can be easily put together, and it works. Five stars.

Very good for my kids (14 years old girl and 9 years old boy) to have practical understanding of very basics of electrical engineering. I have helped them to assemble and able to show them what is gear ratio, what is commutator brush DC Motor and what is DC generator with the kit. Also a nice feature when you remove the red and blue magnets then neither the generator generates electricity nor the motor runs. The toy is not that you build generator or motor on your own hand. Rather it is assembled rotor with 3 commutators and two terminals which can be mounted with plastic gears and permanent magnets to act as BDC motor or generator. The assembly is very easy and it takes maximum 5 minutes for me and 10 minutes for my kids.

Great kit, useful not just for 8+ but also for GCSE and IGCSE physics. I like the way you can build up the components of a motor and see why the magnets make a difference, for instance. Components feel solid and fit together well. Instruction booklet is great and streets ahead of the usual standard, with clear explanations. This kit ended up being indispensable in our KS3 science group when an alternative kit, ordered from a university science supplier, was hard to use.

Fantastic gift for kids. Got this for Christmas and my child was so blown away by it. Lots of fun for hours. Parents were involved with it to.

I got this for my 10 year old son and we really enjoyed working with it. The parts are well made and solid. The instruction manual is very well written and gives very interesting historical background to the experiments. I'd recommend highly.
