The Mega Mech R/C Robot 48 inch by Tekno is a fun product for kids ages 5-7, but takes a lot of time to blow up and space to move around. Once it gets going, the kids love it! But as it's an inflatable, it soon started tipping over where it stood and continued to lean no matter how much air in legs. Needs some support for it to function and be sturdy enough for longer play. The speech was great the first time, but with only 5 variations, it also soon grew old for the kids. For the price, it was a good deal, and if your little one loves to have control and RC figures, it will be a hit.

This robot rolls on a platform. Rolls forward and backward, and can turn left and right, all with the remote. It moves slowly, and says a few phrases in a robotic voice. Really a kick, for the price we got it for. We have not had any problem with it flopping over due to inflate problems. However, now what? The kids have guided it around the house, and now they're on to other things. It will be fun to show their friends when they come over... Where are we going to keep this thing? Anyway, I rate it 5 stars because it's so fun and silly.

I bought this robot as a Christmas gift for my husband. He loves it! It was easy to put together - just inflate with the included foot pump and snap onto the base. It's only two pieces plus the remote. It does require more batteries than stated in the description - 3 AAA for the remote and 6 AA for the robot itself. The plastic is a heavy quality, and we have not had any issues with sagging or falling over. The Robot is very stable. My friend's four year old daughter was fascinated by it on a recent visit. She loved to make it talk! It is a simple, fun toy.

My 4-year-old son received this for Christmas. He had wanted a robot and found this already fully inflated under, well next to, the tree. All of our holiday visitors have been impressed by the size of this toy. It has extremely simple controls that my son has had no problems working. The voice sounds are not very clear but he doesn't seem to mind. I believe older kids would get bored very quickly with this because it moves slow and doesn't really do a whole lot. It is inflatable after all. However, the younger ones (probably ages 4 to 7) will get a kick out of it. (Warning: my 2-year-old daughter was afraid of it.)

Previous reviews were helpful to me in purchasing this product. I got exactly what I expected, basic remote control functions in a "wow" of a package. Santa was a hero in our house on Christmas morning. My son is 6, loves all things robotic and remote controlled. The only negative is that my son has expectations that the robot is "real" and will do what he says. Reasonably durable for an inflatable product. It gets significant play whenever someone new comes over.

i bought this as a xmas present for my 25 year old brother and i tested it out. its way cool. not the most practical toy ever and i don't know about the durablility yet, but what's better than a 4 ft inflatible robot that you can drive?

This robot is just okay it moves slow and has a few sentences, for the price its a good deal for smaller children

I bought this on a whim because don't we all need a 48 inch Robot? I know I did and when it arrived I couldn't have been happier. We had it set up within 15 minutes out of the box and had the necessary batteries on hand. I suggest getting rechargeable ones if you haven't already, good for the environment and saves you money. Sony Power Battery Charger with 4 AA Ni-MH Rechargeable Batteries Okay now back to the Robot. He's not fast and he doesn't do corners well, BUT he does roll around my kitchen saying those same couple phrases over and over, entertaining our cat, our friends and now I can say I own a Robot! It was a good purchase.

Bought two of these for my nephews. They loved it!!! Fun, easy to inflate, easy to use!! Good toy overall!!!

Bought this a year ago and threw it out after a few months. Remote didn't work. Gift recipient ended up using the this inflated toy as a punching bag. It then deflated after a few months, not surprisingly.
