Customer Reviews for Christmas Gift！VEVOR RC Remote Control Dump Truck Toy Construction Vehicle Toy 11CH 1:18 Scale

It wasn't 100% certain what articulated meant in the description, but it has a hinge in it between the cab and the dump truck, which makes steering and movement just one level cooler than a plain old dump truck. It was easy to charge and relatively easy to insert the rechargeable batteries into the appropriate compartment. Sometimes it can be a real struggle to get those batteries to fit so I appreciate that it was only a minor struggle with this particular vehicle. Smooth action, makes noise but not crazy loud, it's going to make a great gift on Christmas morning for ds8.

The main reason I'm giving this 4 stars instead of 3 is because of the price. You just can't beat $20 - $25 for a radio controlled dump truck that actually dumps, and has lights and sounds. Here are the things I like about this toy: 1. It just looks good. It has rubber tires and an overall very realistic look. 2. You have the option to turn the lights on and off and the option to turn the sound on and off. 3. The dump function is really cool. 4. It automatically \"beeps\" when you back up. 5. It comes with rechargeable batteries (2) and charger for the truck. (The remote uses AAs). Here are the things that I am not thrilled with: 1. The remote feels cheap and is not clearly labeled for the accessory functions. 2. The truck has only 1 speed forward and one speed backward. It is \"go or no\", nothing in between. 3. The steering is awkward and jerky. Instead of having smooth left to right controls, if you turn left and then let up on the stick, it stays turning left. It won't straighten out or turn right unless you actually push the stick to the right. If this were a more expensive toy, the steering and speed control issues would be a deal breaker, but since it is inexpensive, the issues are tolerable. If you're looking for a fun toy for Christmas that won't break the bank, this is a good choice.

This is an incredibly well made durable RC truck. It's very large and works well with its rechargable batteries. Because it's so durable you can fill it with sand or dirt and not worry about it becoming damaged. It moves quickly enough for an rc truck and my kids absolutely love playing with it. The controller is a good size for little hands and makes it easy for them to control.
