UGears Mini Desert Buggy Reviews

I bought this to build with my 9 year old. It is the first one we've attempted and it is definitely more complex than we expected, so the 14+ rating on it is accurate. The mechanical parts are fascinating. I was able to teach my son about gears, ratchets, and one way freewheels. Amazing. The only thing I wish was the instructions had 1:1 images of the rubber bands so we could be sure we had the right ones. Kind of like Lego does with axles.

I made this buggy with my grandson. He is a big lego fan but this was so much fun to put together. Its great to seen him develop the skills needed and the application really surprised me. A great learning toy!
