Double E Volvo 1:16 Scale Remote Control Excavator, 17 Channel 3-in-1 Construction Toy with Metal Shovel, Drill, Grab & Lights, 2.4GHz Full Function Digger for Outdoor Sandbox, Gift for Kids & Adults

This Double E Volvo RC Dump Truck toy is a great entry level RC dump truck. My 6 year old son loves playing with RC cars and recently discovered RC construction vehicles. The controls are fairly self explanatory with photo labels for the raise and lower dump bed functions. The articulation turning took some getting used to because it doesn't snap back to straight like a regular RC car. But I think that's a realistic difference, so not a complaint. The dump mechanism works well and seems strong enough for the toys, sand, mulch and other lighter materials something this size would reasonable be expected to carry and dump. The battery life is decent. My son played with it for about an hour with other toys. It wasn't running the whole time because he was filling it with mulch, or digging with another toy, but it worked the whole time. It does shut itself off after a little bit which preserves battery life. One feature I really appreciate is the ability to turn off the engine sound. It's very authentic and sounds a lot like a construction site, but it is nice to be able to play with it in the living room and not have it always sound like a construction site :-) . I'll list the following as opportunities for improvements, but I suspect most of them would be addressed in the next tier up in toy lineup. It is not super powerful. This works great on hard floors and low carpets, it's not built for off-roading. The power only comes from the back 2 tires, so if they get off the ground, it's stuck. We tried to build a little ramp out of plywood for it to back up and unload it's contents into a container. It didn't really have enough power for the incline (about 15 degrees over a 5 foot stretch). We discovered the ability to turn off the sound came by pressing and holding the horn button. I'm assuming this is spelled out in the instructions, but I didn't notice it in my 10 second review of them. With all of the other images explaining the functions on the remote, it would be nice to see a sound mute icon or something. Overall we really like this truck. My son loves learning and figuring out how things work and this has been an awesome addition to our RC fleet!

Wonderful little excavator toy. Cool attachments that are fun for everyone. I would definitely recommend any Double E products to anyone getting into RC construction equipment.

This toy is really cool. The parts and accessories are of of good sturdy quality. I think it’s nice as an adult gift, for people who likes yard work. I got it for my husband for Christmas.

One star taken for delivery frustration. Was promised at a certain time and not delivered on time. Truck is awesome! It makes every sound I was hoping for. If treated gently it will last. Plastic gears means don’t be a dummy with it! I love this purchase so much! Delivery needs to improve.

When I open the box, it looked awesome. I was well pleased, it worked excellent. Package very well, arrived in perfect condition.

I bought the dump truck and the excavator, both are actually solid and well made toys, I’m using them for my Rc restaurant business, I’ll probably buy a few more.

This makes a great toy for little kids. Ordered this with the intention on taking it to the beach but after testing it around the house with mulch, grass and small limestone rocks(#8s), I doubt it will do any better in the sand. It is not very strong & gets stalled when trying to “dig” loose gravel or mulch. My son loves to drive it around and the battery is decent. Will definitely be looking into higher end units for simulated digging. Also, controls are ISO and cannot be changed to Deere.

This RMC toy excavator is a great buy and very realistic. I really like that it comes with different attachments, which adds to the play value and keeps my 4-year-old engaged. The details are well done, and it feels sturdy and well-made. It seems like it will hold up well over time, even with regular play. Overall, it’s a fun, durable toy and a great choice for any child who loves construction vehicles.

Très déçu acheter pour cadeaux de Noël pour mon petit fils et la boite est arrivé déchiré et l'autre le bout de la boîte à été toute retaper. Voir les photos. On dirait un retour.pas très beau pour offrir en cadeau reste à voir si tout vas fonctionner .ne peux prendre la chance de retourner .j'aimerais avoir un dédommagement. Au prix que ce cadeau vaut je m'attendais à une belle emballage.

Great item that has every type of fitment - bucket, drill etc.
