Official Arduino Starter Kit [K000007] (English Projects Book) - 12 DIY Projects with All Necessary Electronic Components and Instructions - origianl kit by Arduino from Italy

Arduino Starter Kit is amazing microcontroller for beginners. All the electrical components are included in the packet for projects. I liked the projects and programming environment both. The starter kit gives a good hold to understand execution of electronic projects. Sooner or later intermediate and advanced kits may be available - I will definitely like to buy them. Update on 3rd October 2015: I have placed another order. The 170 page manual is printed on good quality paper - the reading experience was good. I prefer to have a pdf file - I am unable to obtain it online. Could I get a link to download ?

A Bit expensive, but for someone starting out with Arduino, this is very good choise. If you are familiar with arduino or can read documentation and familiarize yourself with it, it might be a cheaper and better option to only buy arduino separately and purchase components as you need it. For a novice, who likes learning by hands on approach, this is a good buy

Fantastic quality

Arduino itself is a great product, so no questions about that. What i didn't like it the handelling by the seller, i had to replace the first delivery because of the damaged box. Replacement was too not in a good shape. You don't expect this when you are paying more than the double of the original price in the name of import duty.

Good product.

The kit's good.. but overpriced. Buying individual components separately would turn out to be way cheaper.

Component quality is good except Servo. There is nothing special in book. The package is quite a bit expensive.

Its a good one. but it is very expensive. not worth for 9799Rs. if one have time, get a discrete components it will come to max 2k.

Sin duda un kit muy cuidado. Es perfecto para iniciarse en el mundo de la electrónica, los microcontroladores e incluso la robótica. Trae muchos materiales y un libro muy bien presentado con unos 15 proyectos interesantes y sencillos. Algunos requieren de una pila de 9V no incluída. Se hecha en falta algo más de Teoría de Circuitos pero cumple con lo que aporta. Muy recomendado!

All perfect. Recommended product

I just received this kit, so of course I'm writing this as someone who hasn't gone through the projects. I will update this review as soon as I get a more direct experience with the projects and test the performance of the different parts and components. The packaging is really nice; everything comes laid out very nicely, making the mere unboxing of the kit a nice experience. Hopefully the projects will be just as nice and all the components will work correctly. Price was very reasonable as well. Update: It's now more than a week since I received this package and I have now more hands-on experience than I had when I wrote the first part of the review. I've gone through the first three projects, and plan to go through a few more soon. I have to say than it's all been a great experience so far. I haven't encountered any defectuous components, and the book is clear enough to follow and go through the projects easily and to learn the basics of the Arduino language. The book is also very nice: while it doesn't teach electronics nor programming in a complete or thorough way, it does help in developing the interest in these areas and provides simple solutions and tips to develop electronics knowledge. It serves as an introduction, so if the user decides he/she wants to continue learning electronics or programming he/she can look for more advanced sources. The wooden base the kit includes was one of the best surprises: I was thinking about getting an acrylic case for my Arduino but after screwing it to the base and attaching the breadboard at its side I've decided it looks very nice like that and will keep it that way. To conclude, I would greatly recommend anyone with no experience but with an interest in the areas of programming and electronics to get this kit, since it represents a very enjoyable introduction to these areas. Also, it can be a great gift to a kid who wants to learn or become an engineer, so I also recommend it to any parent who believes his kid is developing an interest. Learning Arduino is fun and also has educational content, so there is no way to be wrong with this.

I like it very much

Perfect thank you
