    We bought this because we saw a video. It does not disappoint. Set up is easy and connection was easy. We bought this along with Ollie and make them do tricks and roll around the floor. Who would think a remote control ball would be so much fun!

    A remote control ball doesnt sounf like much, but this little thing quickly takes on its own personality! It has an internal light show capable of millions of colors, it comes with ramps for tricks, it has a numbef of apps that use its i telligent design as a 3D controller. It is so much fun!

    My daughter receive this for Christmas and she really enjoys playing with it. I think it's a neat Gadget and it is fun to play with. As you may know, they make two versions of this ball, this one and the one that you can program. If you're into coding, the other boy would probably be better. I got this one only because it was a last-minute gift selection and they only had this type left. I would have preferred to get there one that can be coded, but she still enjoys this quite a bit!

    Sphero is a great gadget to play with yet an amazing learning tool for students. Have written a couple of grants to obtain several of these for my classroom, but have failed to win grants. Sphero is worth the extra work!!

    Got this for my dog to play with. She loves to chase it and pick it up. Doesn't like when it vibrates while holding in her mouth. A good way to let her run

    Bought as a Christmas Gift for our Grandson. Just wish Best Buy's return policy was longer for "early" Christmas shoppers. No product opinion until after Christmas. Online reviews were good for this product.

    This is a fun toy out of the box but over time loses it fun factor. It's expensive toy for kids or pets, but worth it if price isn't an issue.

    Bought this as a Christmas present for my daughter and she loves it. She likes playing with the apps she downloaded for it and unlocking new tricks. Some apps aren't that great though.

    This is a relatively simple device. It's a bluetooth rolling "robot" that you control with your phone or tablet. The real benefit of the Sphero is the ability to write programs in their visual programming software. The purpose is to teach programming. I think it is spot on for that task. And it's fun to just drive it around. I give this one 4* because the bluetooth is easier to use on their alternative device the SPRK edition. I've found some issues with the SPRK edition not working with Amazon Fire tablets / phones unless you get the software from the Play store which is a pain. If you multiple users and have relatively recent iOS or Google Play get the SPRK edition over this one. If you have a Fire tablet / phone or an older iOS device, get this one.

    The kid loves playing with it. It learns more tricks the more you play with it. Good for the cats too.
