Very high quality, but no microbit
It works really well. It can go at a decent speed. Also, it comes with a manual. On the other hand, it veers of slightly, but this is very slight and doesn't affect normal use. You must buy the microbit (£24)for it to function .It is great value for money.

a very good mini robot for BBC microbit
The robot is easily assembled and has a very good instruction booklet. It is easily programmed using the Makecode. Line following is very effective even at speed.A very useful and effective application for the Microbit.

Enjoyable intro to coding. Needs micro:bit and batteries
The media could not be loaded. I like this ELECFREAKS microbit Mini Cutebot Kit, and my son is really enjoying using it and making adjustments to the code. You need to supply the micro:bit and three AAA batteries.If you aren’t familiar with the micro:bit, it’s a small computer circuit board that can easily be programmed to do a variety of tasks. It’s especially suitable for children starting to learn computing and coding.This Cutebot is pretty easy to set up. The small instruction booklet is reasonably simple to follow, and there are example code downloads on the Elecfreaks website. Coding can be done in micro:bit Makecode (an easy programming environment for beginners), Scratch, Javascript or Python, for more experienced coders.In spite of liking this product, I can’t stretch to giving it five stars. Although the instructions are okay, there are a few ambiguities in them, especially the ones online. For example, at the time of writing this review, they don’t clarify which of two adjacent ports the ultrasonic senor should be slotted into; and the online instructions give an impression that code you need to download to enable various Cutebot functions needs to be updated by yourself, even though it doesn’t. Whilst these ambiguities are not catastrophic, they are frustrating, especially for busy teachers or technicians setting these devices up for STEM lessons, or for young coders expecting full and clear guidance.
