Thames & Kosmos Power House (V 2.0)

Great science kit. Lots of info and lots of fun for kids who love science. My on used it as part of his science fair display the other kids loved it.

This couldn't have costed more than $10.00. to make. The solar panel fell apart being installed on the house. Windmill blades are made out of toothpicks,foam and a cheap paper cut out. This couldn't stay together in the windstorm that would be needed to even power the led light provided. Hope that my son can still grow a plant in his $90.00 greenhouse.1 rating because this needs a star rating to be posted.

Too simple for a 10 yr old

I bought this for my 6 year old son because he loves to see how things work. He is very interested on science, and engineering. I have also purchased Thames & Kosmos products before; so I am familiar with the quality of their products. This product was a smaller version of another one made by T&K. My son enjoyed learning about solar power with this product, but I feel that the materials used in this particular set were lower in quality than the previous set I mentioned. But for the price, I can't really complain.The product arrived promptly, and overall I am pleased.

nice

This system is basic for easy comprehension and explanation.

Great

The kit did have the 65 page instruction manual in the box. There was no option to download a PDF of the manual. The company gives an option to charge you for a replacement manual even though they did not put one in the box.
