This review is from : Elenco Electronic Motor and Generator Action Kit
Interesting but not very durable . The generator was fairly easy to assembly, but put out very little voltage. It was very hard to light the supplied LED by hand cranking. An incandescent bulb would have been easier to light. An LED requires over 0.7 volts to dimly activate, I only measured about 1.2V at the fastest crank speed attainable. The crank broke after about 10 minutes of trying to light the LED. My son had more fun hooking up a 9V battery to the generator and letting it spin the crank. The motor was very difficult to assemble. I had to rewind the stator several times to get wiring correct. Not much response from the batteries. While an interesting experiment, my son learned more about gears and using motors than the physics behind how they work.

Cons Review
Motor worked. Generator Didn't. Picture Shows four Items but you only get two . I ordered this product to teach electromagnetic concepts to my eight year old. The picture shows four items but the product only has a motor and a generator. This seems misleading to me. They should not show four items in the picture.
Motor parts were relatively well designed and easy to assemble and worked great. The generator was not so good. Generator motor's wire was glued flimsily and one of them had partially come off. The other came off during the assembly. I reattached the wire and assembled the generator but could never get it to work.
