OWI 4 in 1 Robot Reviews - The 4 in 1 Robot is an excellent beginner series robot. This battery-controlled kit can teach the basic principles of robotic sensing and locomotion. It features a pre-assembled printed circuit board, hardware, and mechanical drive system that can be handled by almost anyone from age 10 and up. Only basic hand tools are required for assembly. -- Assembling the robot is a great way to develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination as you assemble, build and follow instructions. The most important objective, though, is to just have fun building your robot! -- The 4 in 1 Robot makes a great entrant for robotic competitions, science fair projects, robotic workshops, after-school programs, special events, gifts, science enrichment camps, and classroom activities. -- The Robot features four different methods of movement: Traversing-hand over hand (orangutan mode), Two-legged walking (Gorilla mode), Four-legged walking (Centaur mode) and Six-legged walking (Spider Mode). -- Requires 2 "AA" batteries (not included).

3 out of 4 work . This kit adds two 'leg' kits to the better value 'Jungle Robot' (a pretty great robot, also, shamefully, discontinued by OWI)
For the rediculous price difference, one should get something more than the two additional leg kits, one of which doesn't work.
The drivers that fit on the end of the output shaft are a weak spot. If any part of the legs jam it will likely break the driver's plastic socket as another noted. Be sure to remove any burrs on the drivers and the other associated circular links. They are timed to ensure that the burrs will contact each other, leading to a broken driver.

Great Gift . I gave this to my husband for Christmas, and he loved it! We assembled it together, which was fun. The assembly wasn't as hard as some people made it out to be. You just have to really pay attention when looking at the diagrams, and keep the pieces in their separate bags. The end result was amazing! It worked right away, no kinks. We love it!

Cons Review
put together . We put the robot together ok it ran good for about 10 min, then the shaft that holds the drive wheels had to much play and stripped the 1/2 moon area out, this is cheap and cannot be altered once its worn the part needs to be replaced. Being a new toy. I'm sure some kits are not going to do this while others will because of the walking action.
Robot . The robot was a little hard to put together. i don't think a 10 year old could do it.
