Great learning toy . My 11 year old son is very into putting things together so I got this power house for him so he could build and learn at the same time. He was very careful with the pieces (they're made of styrofoam). I would say a younger kid may have trouble with the durability but it's been perfect for him. He has learned a lot.

Thames and Kosmos Alternative Energy and Environmental Science Power House Green Essentials Reviews
Power house is a great way to learn . My 9 year old daughter used this for a science fair project to demonstrate residential solar energy. The solar panels are surprisingly strong. The manual and materials are easy to use and understand. We supplemented this with a number of resources on the internet to really understand how a solar panel generates electricity.

for an older child . I got this for my eleven year old. We do the projects together, but I think to get the most out of it, it is for 13 and up.
Thames and Kosmos Alternative Energy and Environmental Science Power House Green Essentials Opinions
Don't buy this project . hello we are students and we bought this project thinking it would come out great but unfortunately we were disapointed . the reason is that the manual book is to vague, the parts don't fit in correctly also satin and it is not durable. we thought that the project was going to be nice especially the solar power pannels the pannels don't even charge and there is nothing to light up. about the manuel the instuctions were not instructions they were more telling and explaining. the paper parts were even confusing.its alot of money we wasted on this project and sorry to say this but we would like our money back!! we are students and we give this a no star rating :) oh from the picture it looks nice but actually its not worth it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you :(

not durable . this would have a great benefit if it wasnt made out of syrofoam, maybe make the outside plastic and the inside styrofoam, because my daughter is using this as her senior project on green homes/going green, and she nearly broke it in half just by trying to put it together. not well made if you ask me, but she did learn a lot from the experiments.
Solar Home Project . I purchased this Solar Home Kit for my 9 year old son and one of his buddy's for a science project. He and his friend actually put the whole project together with no help from an adult from start to finish. The only adult supervision they recieved was to ensure their safety and for guidance.
Terrible Ordering Experience . I am sure the kits are going to be great but we ordered them through our school with no problem but when I went to order one item from Amazon, I was billed for three more kits! Customer service is somewhere else in the world something where they do celebrate Christmas and could care less about getting my money returned to me.
Good Project for the budding solar engery scientist . We purchased this item for our budding scientist. He just started working on the home and he enjoys constructing the house and checking the temperature. I have to check how much he can accomplished so I can provide more feedback. For myself, I wish the house was not constructed by foam since it can easily be chewed on by a little tyke.
