Top Race 12-Channel RC Remote Control Construction Crane Tractor - 1:24 Scale, Perfect for Kids Ages 3+

I bought this crane for Christmas for my son as he loves anything mechanical. Unfortunately one of the arm struts broke after my son picked it up by the arm whilst playing. To say that he was devastated is an understatement as up till that point this was one of his favorite and well used Christmas toys. I contacted the manufacturer to see if I could get a spare part, but didn't hold out much hope as I am used to most companies being quite unhelpful when things like this happen. Well to say I was shocked and very pleasantly surprised is a bit of an understatement. My e-mail was replied to within an hour and although they could not get the part they said that as long as I showed proof of purchase they would arrange for a replacement. I did this and the new crane arrived within two days. My son is now happily playing again and I have the broken crane for spares if needed. What great customer service. Thanks Top Race!

Broke very easily. Not worth the money

I bought this thinking it wouldn't last long, because I was strapped for money, but wanted to get my son what he asked for, for his birthday.It's a really good little toy, my son has had it over a year now.Only thing is one of the wheels keeps coming off, but just pops back in.

Ah the sweet noise of beeping wiring spinning children's toys. This is not the toy for you if you like a peaceful time, on the other hand, it does run down it's batteries quite quickly and need charging, so you do get some rest.It is a pretty cool toy, you must fully charge the thing (we spent a day thinking it needed to be sent back before we realized that it just didn't have enough juice - it turns on but then just makes noises at you if it doesn't have enough), but once fully charged it spins, rumbles over the carpet and raises its hook up and down making the aforementioned delightful beeps and rumbles.Its not the most robust toy. The boy (3) broke the hook it within a week trying to lift something (probably a mug that it didn't quite fit around) and the tracks periodically fall off when he tries to drive it over something he shouldn't, but that hasn't stopped his enjoyment.Overall, for the money, can't really fault it.

The idea of the toy is great, I don't mind it being loud, it does have a silent mode but Batteries ran out very fast and some components stopped working all of a sudden and without any rough play.

The media could not be loaded. Very cool crane! my nephew loves it! Simple to use, lots of features and the company support was really good when the first one I ordered didn't work, it was swiftly replaced no questions asked.Very good service 😊

My partner and I bought this for our son for Christmas. He loved it and it was his favourite present.....until it broke after literally half an hour and now won’t switch on at all, even after recharging and then replacing the batteries. He doesn’t understand why he can’t play with his new toy, and we now have to explain to him that it’s broken and we need to find him something else after getting this refunded. We certainly won’t be replacing it with the same poor quality product. Very cheeky to charge £35 for something which is so cheaply made that it breaks in a matter of minutes.

Bought this along with the other construction vehicles in the range to give to my granddaughters [& why not?] for Christmas but have opened them all to charge & insert batteries & test them. I especially like the fact that they are all the same scale [1:45], so they can be used together. My only criticism is one that applies to all motorised toys & that is that the gearing should have been reduced so that it was to scale as well. In all, excellent value & I look forward to helping the girls play with them.
