  I wish I would have never gotten this for my son for his birthday. The charge for double a batteries is so horrible you have to change out weekly. After a month and a half I just couldn't afford to keep buying batteries. So he hasn't been able to play with it since. I just got enough to money to invest in the recharable battery. Received it today. Still can't play with it. It did not come with a power cord. Now I have to dish out another $30.00. If you plan are using robot daily then invest in battery. I just don't understand why they just don't charge the difference and put the recharageable battle in this package. Horrible expierence.

  Response from LEGO SHOP

  Haley, Customer Service

  We're really sorry that you're disappointed with your experience with the LEGO® MINDSTORMS EV3! While we are glad to hear it's being put to frequent use, we are sorry to hear the battery expenses have been less than ideal. The LEGO Shop version that you purchased does not come with a rechargeable battery to keep costs down and make it easier for more families to purchase. We're really sorry that it wasn't clear the DC Charger is not included with the rechargeable battery. There is a call out in the product description, but we will most certainly take your feedback into consideration for future call outs. Thanks again for your feedback. We hope your builder continues to have fun programming with their EV3!

  The most Amazing LEGO® Product

  First of all this is my first LEGO® MINDSTORMS® product so i can't compare it with NXT . I only can say that this product is MUST-HAVE . It's the most amazing product i've ever bought , You can build robots with +550 technic elements of and 3 powerful motors and sure the great sensors . But don't forget to buy an organizer to place your pieces on it because there is a lot of tiny pieces . Pros : Every thing is awesome . Easy to program . Programming via brick is great . Great product for education . The design of the pieces and brick . The technology of this product is awesome and smart . Cons : The software is too laggy . So that's it and thank you .

  I've been waiting a year to get this set! And when I finally did I ripped the box right open and started building tracker. I made a few robot and overall, I'm happy with the product. One thing that sucks about this is the amount of batteries this thing eats up. The 6 batteries lasted for about 1 and a half months. Definitly a battery waster but overall a great product!

  A natural extension into the future for Lego

  Purchased for: Son

  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.
