Sharper Image - Monster Rockslide - Red

As advertised right (11/30/18) now this product states it comes with a charger with batteries for the truck included and the only battery you need to buy is the 9volt one for the controller. This is not true. It comes with no batteries and no charger and the box I received clearly states they are not included. I reported this false advertising to Best Buy on 11/30/18. Hopefully they will fix the website for both this truck and the one of the other color. The cost of batteries and enough chargers to charge 12 batteries at once (I bought 2 trucks, one red and one blue and each require 6 AA batteries), comes to around $100 on best buy and around $65 on Amazon. That is a significant expense for RC trucks advertised to have a charger. People should be aware of that before they choose to buy. Until they change the false advertising I would not recommend buying this truck unless you are OK that you will have to buy all the batteries. According to other reviews it appears to work well, my objection is that they lied about what the truck comes with and this means a significantly increased cost.

Fast Durable. My Three Year Old Nephew Was Very Pleased. He Loves Outdoors. It's Fast. Can Go On Rough Terrain

Worked fine for a few days, but my 7y/o son broke it. I'd be better if it came with rechargeable battery pack.

Did not last very long before the turning gearbox broke. I used it for a short time for an Engineering and Robotics Club assignment. We tested it indoors on a ramp. We noticed that turning did not work well. We took it apart to see what was wrong and found that a small white plastic gear was split in two. Other than that, it worked like a champ and has a lot of cool features. I am hoping to figure out a way to replace the gearbox with my students.

Fast friendly people never a problem on warranty's

great gift ideas, fun for all, saving Christmas for all

Monster Truck! What little boy can resist! But unfortunately the product isn't very durable. The truck lasted less than a week with in my opinion a reasonable amount of play from my child. Such a cool toy I think should be able to last longer. Maybe that's why the price was so good. Too bad. I would definitely pay more for something that would live up to a "Monster Truck" name.
