Review: READ THIS FIRST if you are going to build this robot - Received this today and finished the build in about 7 hours (with a few short breaks). This is a fantastic robot. We are having a lot of fun with Max already. Really good voice recognition...a bit of a surprise how sophisticated he is in this price range. Here are some problems a lot of people are having that are not defects, but not understanding how to use the instruction booklet as well as some problems understanding the wiring. I see photos of wires too short , etc. Not so. First the criticism that manual is no help in assembly because of too many screws and no way to tell which goes where. On each page of the manual is a photo or illustration of the parts to be assembled and the screws used and where they are placed by size. If you notice in the illustrations there is a drawing of the screw to be used and it is 1 to 1 scale. Just measure each screw right on the drawing...can't go wrong. It helps to separate the screws when you start into groups that are alike (I used plastic throw away cups). Now as to the wiring...the servo for the 'claw' has 2 wires that come from it. You will only use the long one which connects to the head servo short wire. The other wire (short one) is not used. Also, the 2 motors used for the wheels ...both again have 2 wires. Only one of them uses both wires. Check the manual to make sure which one. It will plug into the other motor connector, while the extra wire (short) goes to nothing. Now as to the brain. Build the robot. Make sure and label your wires 1-4 to connect to the back 'brain' module. Makes it a lot easier later to reconnect. Go to the website and download the program for Mac or PC to you computer. Plug in the brain module to your computer via USB. When the program is downloaded, click on it to activate it (you will see a shortcut on your desktop). A screen will open to reveal a simple interface panel. Select the downloads you want on the right. To the center bottom is a down load button. Just push it and wait a couple of minutes as it downloads to the brain box. It shows progress and when completed. Just close the program and unplug Max's brain. Your ready to go.
Review: Challenging and fun build. A real sense of accomplishment when completed. - This was a Christmas present for my 11yo grandson. Total assembly time was about 4 hours with my grandson primarily assembling while I was his shop hand. (Note: he does have experience using tools.) We both found the directions easy to follow. The illustrations are well done and it was easy to choose the correct side if two surfaces were available. I can only describe it as thrilling once the robot was completed and it began the learning process. I can’t wait to see how far he can take it. It has been a fun experience and I highly recommend the Meccano-Erector product. Ps - If you are comparing this to the “building brick” offering the Meccano-Erector is hands down the best choice. The bricks don’t stay together while this is very sturdy.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Great toy, however difficult to assemble. Power plug for charging works in USA only circuits.
*by V***T on February 8, 2018*

Difficult to put together, it took my husband and 10 year old son about 8 hours to assemble only to find the power charger did not charge in Australia! Beware of power adaptor if purchasing from overseas, as I purchased online from USA and reside in Australia and the power charger did not work, Doh! My fault, I Should have thought it through more. Amazon promptly credited $50 to put towards an adaptor for us. Great customer service from Amazon! however it took 2 weeks to get USA->AUS adaptor shipped over from USA. A long wait for my son to play with his Christmas gift. Meccano Erector MAX now works well and is a great addition to our family.
