The instructions were a bit tricky to follow at first, but we persevered and managed to put the car together. It worked fine in direct sunlight on clear days. Unfortunately, I knocked it off the top of the counter and the solar panel broke- every other part of the car is fine, but it won’t run anymore because the cell is in pieces. So- great learning tool and fun toy, but be careful with it!

Easy to put together. High quality. Great to show kids what solar power can do. I highly recommend this product.
