top quality kit like all the other kits they make. If you finish the basics with Neon City then step up to Nebula Raiders to learn more Python coding with a fun story.

Box is awesome comes with some good equipment and very cool story driven learning. My son started watching me do it then he was like dad can I learn that. Crafting Table is a great company with outstanding customer service
Adventure Kit: Pandoras Box
Lionel Oliver I.Verified
The sci-fi stories make the lessons more fun. The kit includes a lot of parts and I had to buy a much larger tool box to store them more efficiently. Having access to the other courses is a huge bonus. Also, reading an introductory book on the programing language to suppliment the course is a nice thing to do to provide more details than the videos can, since the videos are rather fast paced. I'll be designing my own circuits soon.

The kit is very cool. It is a great way to learn about electronics and how to code them. The lessons are fun and easy to comprehend. This is a good tool to teach kids and adults that want to learn how these things work

I haven't opened it up yet as it is a Christmas present for one of my children, but I am sincerely looking forward to when they open it up and start to use it for the first time.

I have been getting these kits for a long while now and I just love them. You learn so much and I pass them along to friends after I get as much as I can out of them. A lot of friends have children and it is a great way for them to start learning programming and computer electronics.

The first month was just as described: a toolbox with all the electrical components one could ever need. We're a little behind on starting the project, but this kit came with way more stuff inside it than I was expecting. We're excited to start using it once we get a chance.

I like the bright orange top of the toolbox and all the components inside. I also like the sticker on the front with the new logo and message to "Make Something Meaningful"

I think what you guys have done is incredible. Creating the scenarios to help people learn programming, hobby electronics, AI, etc. is genius!! I will be sharing some YouTube videos I made about some of your products on my channel.

Shipping and delivery during one of the worst hurricanes in Florida says it all. Packaging undamaged. Good starter kit to introduce someone to coding & electronics. Keeps my grandson interested with storyline and videos. I would buy more kits in the future.

Kit was exactly as it states. Each adventure is well put together, and after a few adventures you can start to understand what you are doing. It's a fun and creative way to learn coding

I loved mine so much that I got one as a christmas gift! Really appreciate the random extra sensors. It adds an element of learning that stretches beyond the basics in the cogsworth course and is a bit of a launchpad for getting into more advanced projects!

So far so good. I stepped carefully, as my iMac is relatively old (OS High Sierra), therefore installed legacy IDE. Everything connected well. Figured out how to get onboard LED to blink - even played with settings to change blink rate. Haven't ventured on to the next section yet, and still getting used to all the components and options. Been a while since I've done any programming. Definitely more fun to not only program, but to have something tangible blink or move or do something.
Adventure Kit 30 Days Lost in Space
Andrea B.Verified
We haven't used it yet as it's for a Christmas gift for our son, but our last kit which was the lost in space we all really enjoyed. It opened our eyes to lots of other things that we had always been curious about. We saw the farm one and definitely had to get it for him as we enjoy farming from a long family line of farmers. Keep up the good work and definitely the quality is amazing. Thank you for a great product and company.

I bought into this for the AI lesson. Kit number 1 has plenty of good stuff in it and plenty of extras for things I already had. I guess it will ramp up to the AI trainings.

This kit arrived on time and is packaged very nicely. The lessons are pretty fun and very easy to complete.

My 11 year old likes the various lessons and has even found computer based software with the components the can use to explore what he is learning and apply it using a different programming language. I think it's tinker.com? Anyway, we are only on day 8 and he is having a good time with it. Thank you for the challenges.

Bought as an early Christmas present to myself so can’t really comment on the quality of the kit itself but the customer service and communication so far have been absolutely outstanding. Thank you šŸ‘

I haven't played with it yet, but it looks very fun and exciting. Gotta dig out my soldering iron...been awhile since I played with electronics, but this gets me excited. :)

Super fun!! I’m 43 and have enjoyed electronics kits since I was a kid. I really like how the story adds an element of adventure to what is an admittedly dry hobby. This is my first time dealing with coding, and while it is taking me a bit to really understand more complex instructions, it does make sense and is a nice way to stimulate your mind.

Cogsworth City Rocks (great story line and graphics)!!! Love the themed kit with the beginning Arduino board, which also included a "Coding Class" inside to allow students to practice with the components before adding the details with Cogsworth City!! Adding the Sensor Kit just made sense as my students were already asking how we could take the CC lessons further.

Package is really nice. I can store it from year to year for my students to use. It would make a great gift as well. Fun way to get kids interested in coding and learning how circuits work.

still haven't had a chance to do anything with it.. had finals and graduation projects since I've gotten it.. will rereview later. giving it 5 stars because the service I received when my order had problems was outstanding I was missing my hero board the support team answered me I believe it was a Saturday and I had it by Monday. some of the sensors have bent pins I'm sure that they will be fine but if not I am confident that I didn't waste my money

I had an Arduino Nono ble I had been tinkering with before so I was familiar with the IDE and laptop connections. I wanted something to show my grandson. Being a firmware designer and having a two year degree in electronics I can navigate the courses.(I have test equipment to sort out any details) There is a lot stuff operating in the background that is not explained, but for the price I think what you're offering is worth it.

Although I didn't buy it for this purpose this would be a great project for a young kid! Or another one as I am using it my daughter is 17 and we are building a LED curtain that will be able to address any light in a thousand and this kit is part of what's going to help me do it. Even using it as it was intended would be perfect for someone between the ages of 7 and up. Or if you have a pie four and a little bit of coding knowledge šŸ˜‰

My 7 yr old has been interested in electronics for awhile. Last Christmas I got him the elegoo mega kit. He enjoyed learning about all the sensors but it didn't really do a good job teaching Jim about the components or coding. I got him your kit hoping that he would be more involved having characters and a story to follow. He is totally loving helping Astrid and Gear in their adventure. It is east for him to follow and Gear's explanations if what each piece of code is supposed to do is helpful n...

Customer photo review of Breadboard Mount Accessory for HERO Board+1
George Robert M.Verified
The holes drilled in the base are larger than needed for the screws provided. By more of a problem is the the plastic washers provided as standoffs were to small and left to much of the screw coming thru the base for the provided feet to be of use. As shown in the picture I used parts of a screw anchor to make larger standoffs. Maybe the concept was to have the screws come thru from the bottom of the base but that puts the nuts on the PC board which is not a good look or desirable.

Love working with it. Only problem is that it's on Arduino and I'm having problems with the IDE. Wish it could use something else so I could know if I'm actually getting better at coding.

It helps a bit to have a little background knowledge of computer science but this is a fantastic way to get into building circuits. My daughter loves the story and the 'cute little robot guy'. Wonderful tool for learning circuitry, I've already recommended it to my sister for her homeschooled kids.

I ordered the Cogsworth City package, twice, by accident, but only received the one. I like the approach of a narrative. As a starter kit, it does an effective job of hand holding to ensure progress in learning.

Based on my favorable experience with 20 Days Lost in Space, I wished to continue my learning experience... Now I have to be patient, since this is a Christmas gift....

Another awesome kit from inventor.io. Very easy to get started and tons of fun while learning coding. Everything you need is included and the tutorials and documentation are excellent. Way more fun than learning should be!! :)

Cogsworth City is the latest addition to my collection. I am really enjoying all of the inventiveness and creativity that has gone into this and all of the other kits I have purchased. Thank you.

Inventr has reawakened my work in electronics since I retired. I was never one to want to work with programing but now in actual applications find it most interesting and challenging. Working the other side of the slate so to speak. Thanks for the opportunity.
