Poor quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased 2 of these and one of them either was defected or it’s built like that; we took it for its first ride and the whole front end broke off, I’m gonna try returning it straight to manufacture.

Good on level surface, not so much grass & rocks
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this car to give my dog something to chase, so she could get a bit of fun exercise. Unfortunately, every time it hits the grass it stops. Every time there is a bit of uneven gravel, it stops. It goes great over the bricks by the door, but I really wanted something that would go through grass and over rocks in the driveway. It is a fun car on even surfaces. The steering is responsive and it holds a charge for a decent amount of time. As long as you keep it on a level surface, it should be a great toy.

Good buy, just don't abuse and it will last.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this under the assumption that I would have some major fun with it. I was able to jump it several inches in the air. The tread isn't super grippy so I was able to spin the backend despite the street that I ran this on was rather grippy. After about 10 min of several more small 2 inch jumps the steering quit. Not a big deal for me as I will be replacing the suspension, steering components and the motor.

Great car
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was skeptical about the car because of how cheap it was but the car amazed me. It is super fast and handles most normal terrain very well. Too fast for hardwood floors but does amazing on the road. Very fast little car and great battery life, plus its rechargeable so no having to buy a bunch of AA batteries for it.

great for kids
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.ok so for full price ($50), i would have passed on it, i got it on sale for $25, and its worth about as much. it has a run time about 15-20 minutes. and took about 30 minutes to charge up. wheels are plastic, good for pavement or sidewalk, but not gravel or dirt. tough on grass too. for kids it would be great, lackluster for anyone over 15 maybe. for a cheap rc car its great.

So much fun
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This little remote control car is so much fun to play with. Its tough and can handle a 2 or 52 year old driving it. The body is flexible and can withstand all kinds of bumps and flips. I would compare this to a Traxxas without the high cost. The only downside is u have to charge the batteries after each use if u play with it for long periods and I wish u could recharge the batteries without have to take it apart but even thats not hard to do.

Super FAST
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This RC is awesome. Setup was nothing, other than needing to allow the battery charged. Once batteries are in, it is a great ride, The tires and suspension are great for jumps, it handles well in pavement or sidewalk, not so great in grass. It is too fast to use indoors, be careful and definitely watch for kids under 7 that may want to use it because its speed can bruise them if it hits their ankles running at full speed.

Rc car
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased for my nephew for chistmas, need to charge and have a large and small screwdrivers, tools not included, so never got to see it work, or see him play with it on Christmas but assume it worked for them after charging and finding the right tools
