 Not impressed August 28, 2010

My Grandson likes this truck, however my Sister and Brother in law gave him a hummer truck for his birthday which was made by the same manufacturer. I tried to have races with him and the freq. between the two are close enough to the same they interfere with each other not allowing them to operate at the same time.
One of the mirrors was broken off the first time he ran the truck, there is no rechargeable battery with this, it takes a lot of double A batteries. I would not by another from this manufacturer.
 Perfect, if bought for the right age. December 18, 2009

Looking at other reviews for New Bright R/C products, I was hesitant to purchase this for my six year old son's birthday; however, I got it on sale at TRU for $22, so I gambled. It's his first R/C vehicle, and it took him no time to coordinate his left and right thumbs to zoom this around.
It comes with a NiMH battery, which is eco-friendly and provides for a longer run time, albeit roughly 20 minutes per charge. It's lightweight but has sustained repeated crashes with no ill effects, likely due to the fact it doesn't go very fast. This might be the deal breaker for those with older children who fancy a swift R/C vehicle they can also take off road. With limited torque and a wide turning radius, this is really intended for bare floors and sidewalk cruising only, making it perfect for elementary aged children just learning R/C basics.
Recommended, but for the younger set.
It's OK October 22, 2009

The positives:
- It looks nice
- It can take a beating. My son has been ramming it against the wall at full speed, driving it off every piece of furniture in the house, and it's taken the plunge of death down the stairs at least once. Somehow it's still in one piece.
The bad:
- The front tires only turn to either side about a 1/4 inch, so it makes very wide turns.
- Remote control feels very cheap and the steering control seems finicky.
- Expect to charge your batteries every night
This is the first R/C car I've purchased so I'm not sure what kind of value it is or how it compares to others. This toy would be a lot more fun if it could make sharper turns. It's hard to use inside.
