Rating: - Do Not Buy
Please do not buy - this does not work. I am not buying anything with this brand name on again and will write a letter to National Geographic - are they aware just how useless this is?
Rating: - Better than expected
My son was desperate for a metal detector...I had read the reviews here and was a bit shy about this model. Guess what Father Christmas bought?
Well, we set it up and tried it out in our garden. We found several interesting lumps of metal buried under the grass and our expedition was a success. My son was more than pleased.
The detector will struggle with anything deeper than a few centimetres, and coins need to be close to the machine. Materials and construction are as ... Read More
Rating: - Much better than I thought
Reading the other reviews, I was pretty worried when I heard that this had been bought for my daughter's birthday. I thought that it could put her off something that she could otherwise take an interest in. Having tried it out though, it's actually fine, and got a lot of interest and play time from my daughter and her visiting friends.
Physically it's typical for a modern toy, quite plasticky and light. It fits together easily and is easy to hold (where the lightness helps for a child). ... Read More
Rating: - Big metal items fine, small things rubbish
Our son was brought this for his birthday - it did pick up large items that we hovered over (i.e. the telephone, the alarm clock etc.) but couldn't pick up our wedding rings or anything small - and if there was anything between the detector and the item - nothing. Not much good when the whole point is to find buried things!! Very disappointing as a working item - more like a "let's pretend" toy. :(
Rating: - Complete and utter rubbish - don't waste your money
This was on the top of my son's Christmas wish list and what a disapointment it turned out to be. I fully agree with the other reviewers here, the detector simply could'nt detect! We placed a variety of objects directly in front of it and on no occasion were they picked up. I thought by buying a product endorsed by National Geographic I was buying a quality item but I was sadly wrong. A waste of money and one sad and frustrated small boy!
