VATOS Remote Control Cars for Kids - 2.4G 1:12 Scale Sports Racing Car with 2 Rechargeable Batteries, RC Cars Truck with LED Light and Fog Mist Festival Gift for Boy Girls 8 9 10 11 12 Yrs Old and Up

So, my son had one use out of this before it had to head to binville. The car itself is great, it's also very responsive to the controls and although the ability to steer it eluded us, it was fun to watch the various flips, spins and tricks. However, the charging method isn't very good. It comes with two rechargeable aa batteries in a charging adaptor which is wired in a way where it then clips into the car itself (very snugly) or into the provided USB charger. Due to this clipping method the usb charger is not easily replaceable, neither are the batteries therefore if you encounter any unfortunate incidents (like a clumsy child dropping/sitting/standing on the charger) then the whole product can become useless which is very unfortunate.A fun item but the battery and charging method lets it down.

The car and the remote control stopped communicating after 2 hours of use. We changed batteries for the remote and recharged the car battery to no use. Ruined the kids Christmas gift. DO NOT buy this item. Absolute rubbish! Returning it immediately.

We love this toy as gets my son crawling after it and the lights on it. The problem is that it has two joy sticks, one for each side of the car to go back or forward yet the right stick goes side to side so hard to work out which way makes it go forwards every time you pick up the remote which has caused alot of stuff and people to get hit by accident. The battery lasts about 30-40 mins on a full charge but unlike some others which are AA batteries this has a specific battery that needs to plug into a usb and takes about 4 hours from our experience to charge to a decent amount which ca be a long time between plays when the kids want it asap yet such an odd battery I doubt I could get a replacement

Pretty cool remote control car, the colour is bright green which stands out, the remote is easy to use and straightforward plus also in the bright green colour too. The car is 360 degrees and is so much fun, it can flip over so when banging into walls it just flips over and continues on so for kids (and adults!) the fun continues! The batteries last okay but the best thing is that its rechargeable so not having to continuously worry about getting new ones.

This stunt remote control car is great It comes with batteries for the car which gives about 1 hour of play. It is recharged by a USB charger and each take about 1 hour to charge. It has full directional control brilliant as a present or a cheeky self gift.

The media could not be loaded.  This cars a hoot, its mega difficult to drive properly but I think that’s half the fun as it seems to create mayhem as you try to control it and flip and jump it all over the place. The great thing is the surfaces on the car that hit furniture are rubberised and even at full speed it won’t really cause any damage to anything not too fragile. I tried to video it while driving it, I didn’t really capture it! Great fun and fun little present for a young lad (or 45 yr old dad) Rechargeable so the only batteries to buy are for the controller which last ages.

The media could not be loaded.  The controls of this car take a bit of getting used to as there is a left/right stick and an up/down stick. But as there aren’t any ‘steering’ wheels, the controls don't really make sense. To go straight you need to push the stick to the side! It really makes no sense. Once mastered you can manoeuvre effectively.It's not the fastest when compared to other similar vehicles but is pretty cheap so this could be forgiven.Most annoyingly for us, the castor wheels on the car’s body are really squeaky which is really annoying.Overall this is a cheap option and at this value, the quality and quirks are accepted however for a little more money there are far superior products available.

Long run time means happier children, especially when this thing is so much fun to play with! It's a decent size, is tricky to manoeuvre (in a fun way) and can run for a good amount of time before needing a recharge. I'd probably invest in a couple of extra batteries, as I can see everyone wanting to have a go on this! Much more fun than I thought it would be!
