The first thing you need to know about this thing is the sheer size of it makes it stand out from anything else. It is, simply, HUGE. That being said, the weight is much less than expected, which allows this thing to be very fast on a full charge. It does get a little slower near the end of the battery life, but it lasts around 15 minutes running flat out and a bit longer with stop and go. The battery recharges fairly quickly. It is a USB charger, and you will need to have a wall plug to use with it (everyone has several, so no big deal).
As far as terrain, the light weight seems to hurt it a bit on unmowed grass, it doesn't sink in to get grip. On a hard surface, dirt, or low grass, it works very well. The big tires help it to get over most obstacles without an issue.
The controls are very simple, as they should be. Left, right, forward, back, and a couple of adjustment buttons are all you have and all you need. Easy for a child to learn to use, and fun for adults too. On top of all of this, it looks fantastic. Whether you are a Gravedigger fan or not (and who isn't?), this is a beautiful machine.

These little animals check a lot of the boxes to make my girls happy. They love cute little animals (the pandas and unicorns received take care of that), they love jewelry (bracelets are popular, and here they are), and they are part of a collection. I'm not sure what it is exactly about toys with a lot of different things to collect, but we seek them out around here.
Initially I had a little trouble explaining how to turn them back into pets from the bracelet, but honestly they can do it better than I can. Small, nimble fingers seem to do better than adult sized hands for these, and after just a couple of times doing it they can switch them at will. They are even using the little holder than came with it
I'm sure we'll be looking out for more of these. This is a fun little toy that doubles as dress up jewelry, and my children are enjoying them a lot.

There are so many uses for this baking soda, its hard to decide what is best. It absorbs odors in the refrigerator, makes a great cleaner when mixed with other products, great for brushing teeth, and can apparently be used for cooking in some way. Just fantastic. -

No one loves to clean the shower, but this does most of it for you. Spray and wait has been my method with this and it seems to be working pretty well. I have found that is seems to work a bit better if the surface is just a little damp rather than completely dry or soaking wet. -

This game looks great on advertisements and on the box it comes in, but the reality isn't quite so fun. The suspense builds really well and the kids love it, but then the spray happens and it is little more than a trickle. Disappointing, but it is easy enough to understand for younger kids to play as well, so that is a point in its favor. -
These give fresh laundry a long lasting scent that holds up even after your clothes have been hanging in the closet for a week. Subtle scent, not overpowering, and very pleasant.
