Silverlit 81117 Power In Fun Kids I/R Crane Deluxe Set

My son has wanted a remote control crane for years. Found this one. He loves it, although I thought a little young for him, as he can put together quite complicated Lego. He's just turned seven. He loves make believe and so really enjoys this and it is robust for when smaller children are round. Excellent value for money.

Bought this for my nephew and first of all i must say its great value for money, bought for £25 and you get a operation I/R remote controlled crane which rotates around, goes forward and backwards and pulley goes up and down as well (shame the actual lifting claw isn't controlled remotely as well otherwise this would have been perfect!).Lots of construction pieces and equipment is provided so a realistic site can be made, the manual mechanisms seem to work OK and nephew is engrossed in the whole system.Will see how he gets on with it over the next few weeks/mothhs before considering getting the trucks, and additional vehicles in the set.Would recommend, especially at this price.

Had this toy for over a year. Great product, really solid. I had the string that attaches the claw brake, but was pleased to find that I could access the internal cog every easily and replace the string within 10 min. The remote is simple and easy for my 4 year old to control. Lots of little rocks for the operator to move around on the conveyer belt and claw.
