(More customer reviews)The attraction of this little car is its ability to adhere itself to a smooth wall or ceiling, and dart around like a lizard catching flies. The remote requires 6 AA batteries (not included) and the car battery charges from the remote.
It's easy enough to set up, and pushing a tiny lever on the car starts up the little vacuum thingy at the bottom which allows the car to stay put on walls and ceilings. From there you move it around with the remote.
The problems arise when the walls aren't smooth, as even a little roughness causes a loss in steering ability. If you have high ceilings you won't be able to use this feature, mainly because you can't reach to put the car up there. You also need to keep an eye out for when the headlights start flashing, because this means you're just about out of charge - not very good news when you're driving upside down on a ceiling.
The video shows the car in operation on a not so smooth plywood wall, and a slightly smoother ceiling. In case you're my boss, any similarities between the driving surfaces shown in the video and the walls of my office are purely coincidental.
This is an ingenious little gizmo, and although limited by the availability of clear, smooth walls and ceilings, it's still a bundle of fun, especially for boys of all ages. Amanda Richards, January 6, 2009
