fun kit with the tools included!
Me and my grandson (15) had great fun with this. I did the first solder, and he did all the rest, with me holding things to make it easier. The radio worked first time! Took about 3 or 4 hours. It's great that it comes with the soldering iron, solder and even snips to cut off the excess wires. Instructions are good, and even contain detailed lessons on electronic theory if you are interested, although you don't need to read those to build the kit.

Great project!
My 18 year old put this together to learn more about soldering & electronics. He had fun doing it, and the radio worked very well. Highly recommend. The only difficulty he had was with the battery case. It was hard to get the battery out, so he suggests to be gentle with that.

Was a good learning experience for grandson but in the end it didn't work for us.
My husband bought this for a project for him and our 7 year old grandson. It was interesting and a great project for both of them but you really should have some soldering skills. That was the most difficult part. Unfortunately one of their solders wasn't done properly because it does not work. Don't know what sheerness, thickness and warmth has to do with the review, so I didn't comment on that.

So happy I spent the time and money to do this
I had a blast making this kit. Took me roughly 4 hours, but the last hour was trouble shooting why the stations weren't coming in. Turns I had a bad connection for the 4 looped coil. I double checked all my soldering connections and it started working great. I'm 25 years old an never soldered or did anything like this. The instructions were very clear and easy to follow.

The soldering iron doesn’t work great – it doesn’t get hot enough
I think it needs to come with it. Better soldering iron for the students to be more successful.
