I was first attracted by the description of the partnership between SAM Labs and the Science Museum. My wife and I are huge fans of the Science Museum and go once every two months. We saw the energetic SAM team in their booth and the kids immediately wanted this for christmas, unfortunately I had already bought them gifts. Now that the novelty of their christmas gifts has worn off (I wish I had bought the SAM kit earlier), I decided to give it a try. It wasn't an obvious purchase as it was a bit on the expensive side. But I was convinced that we'd spend enough time with the kit for the investment made.First of all, receiving the kit felt like opening something from Apple. The packaging is minimalist yet very sophisticated, it slides beautifully to reveal the SAMs inside.Then the interface and exercises were a pleasure to do together. We created little morse code circuit, and the kids can now communicate without me or my wife understanding! and also a drum machine from things in the house, which was fun!The activities are really well curated and the material is helpful.Lots of fun, definitely recommend!","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"5.0","bestRating":5}},{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"N***N"},"reviewBody":"Kit is good however the price tag is a little steep for what is in the box. £60 would have been about right.","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"3.0","bestRating":5}},{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"C***L"},"reviewBody":"Great starter kit for the SAM labs stuff although I have had a bit of trouble getting the Bluetooth working. It worked fine on my MacBook but as I didn't want my son to keep using it (as I needed it for work!) I tried to reconnect the kit to the home iMac but it kept failing to see the blocks - even with the dongle. Also, on the light sensor the USB power socket detached from the PCB after only a week although I must say SAM labs immediately sent a replacement at no cost. All in all, I do like it and my son likes the App too - especially the integration with IFTTT which then allows him to have SAM labs interact with the Hue lights in our house!! Only downside is the price is quite high so it's quite an investment to build up a large set of blocks.","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"4.0","bestRating":5}},{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Y***P"},"reviewBody":"I came across SAM Labs while at the Science museum in December and was instantly amazed by the product. I got a cool demo from the sales person and they showed me some of the applications, but I wasn't entirely sure it would be right for me. After checking out more videos of projects and seeing what others have done, I decided to get started myself. This is a solid kit to get begin with because of the 5 project that talk you through the app, and I'm now looking at which next modules I should buy to move on to bigger projects.","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"5.0","bestRating":5}},{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"O***A"},"reviewBody":"Apparently Sam Labs now produced a newer kit and activities mentioned in this kit are no longer available. Had a long chat with their support line and there is nothing they can do. So get ready to search youtube to get started. No instructions included in the kit or in the app apart from simple demo on how to connect two blocks.Blocks probably are a good idea.","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"2.0","bestRating":5}},{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"A***R"},"reviewBody":"I got this for my younger brother and he loved it.

The criticisms I have are that the instructions on and in the box are not clear enough. I bought it as a gift for my grandson but he and his dad couldn't make head or tail of what it was. It nearly got sent back. It was only because I looked up some links and sent them to them that it is still with them.Secondly, the instructions for the projects are really basic. If it doesn't work as described, it's not obvious what to do next. This last comment is anecdotal but my grandson is very good technically so if he can't navigate the site, then the site isn't good enough.I have also just found out that the app for iPhone and iPad is a limited version compared to the one for a laptop or computer. I don't think this is acceptable.","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"3.0","bestRating":5}}]},{"@type":"Product","name":"SAM Labs Pro Kit by SAM Labs","url":"/product/35658188","image":"http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41SrR0OLz7L.jpg","offers":{"@type":"Offer","price":745668,"priceCurrency":"XCD","availability":"https://schema.org/OutOfStock","hasMerchantReturnPolicy":{"@type":"MerchantReturnPolicy","returnPolicyCountry":"ag","applicableCountry":["ag"],"returnPolicyCategory":"https://schema.org/MerchantReturnFiniteReturnWindow","merchantReturnDays":14,"returnMethod":"https://schema.org/ReturnByMail","returnFees":"https://schema.org/FreeReturn","refundType":"https://schema.org/StoreCreditRefund"}},"description":"Create inventions to connect your home, office or classroom to the Internet;Create your own smart weather station in minutes with the in-app guide;Packed with 12 wireless blocks, there is no limits to your imagination!;WIRELESS BLOCKS x1 Cloud Module (beta), x2 Buttons, x2 LED Lights, x1 Servo, x1 Slider, x1 Tilt Sensor, x2 DC Motors, x1 Light Sensor, x1 Heat Sensor;Includes the Cloud Module to connect your blocks from anywhere","brand":{"@type":"Brand","name":"sam labs"}},{"@type":"Product","name":"SAM Labs Curious Cars Kit - Educational STEM Toy - Race and Play: Build and Program Your Own Cars and Games","url":"/product/35658186","image":"https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/517hpEVWUJL.jpg","offers":{"@type":"Offer","price":176339,"priceCurrency":"XCD","availability":"https://schema.org/OutOfStock","hasMerchantReturnPolicy":{"@type":"MerchantReturnPolicy","returnPolicyCountry":"ag","applicableCountry":["ag"],"returnPolicyCategory":"https://schema.org/MerchantReturnFiniteReturnWindow","merchantReturnDays":14,"returnMethod":"https://schema.org/ReturnByMail","returnFees":"https://schema.org/FreeReturn","refundType":"https://schema.org/StoreCreditRefund"}},"description":"

I think it's garbage.Firstly, the URL given on the box was incorrect, I had to find the website using search. Okay, no biggie. Then I had to hunt around on the website (yep, marketers again!) to find the link for the \"app\" (alert: we're trying to sound cool here). Okay, did that. Installed the software, which includes the bluetooth driver for their little USB dongle.The first thing the application does is ask you to create an online profile. Wait a minute. Isn't this supposed to be for 7+ year old kids? What if I don't feel comfortable with putting them online with an app from some obscure company with no track record, no security history, no statement about safeguarding kids, and so on? Tough, they have to be online (remember those marketers?).I would have stopped right here, but I got the product in order to evaluate and write a review. So I plod along bravely (using one of my email addresses). I'm presented with a user interface clearly not designed for the use of a young person. Heck, I have decades in the software industry, and I'm having trouble figuring out how to connect and use the modules, I'm not seeing icons for them anywhere on the screen. One of the prompts says \"turn on your modules\" (or something like that), but I'm not quite sure what this means -- plug them in? Pair them on bluetooth? How exactly?Finally I notice that the \"Inventor Kit\" needs a code to be entered. So I find the code on the box, and enter it. Fail. Try again. Fail. Upper case? Lower case? Letter O instead of zero? Nope, just flat doesn't work.I suspect that with some diligent effort I could figure out how to make this nonsense work. But it's just not worth it, I already know enough about how poorly designed this stuff is.Good idea, but poorly executed. I can't recommend this product.\n ","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"1.0","bestRating":5}},{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"G***M"},"reviewBody":"This set could be 5 stars if not for a few issues. I am really hopeful that the company will solve some of the problems that hold this item back from being fantastic.Let's start with what I like.1) the concept is great2) the you tube videos are inspiring3) the app was easy to install on my Ipad4) I was able to turn on all the devices and have them recognized by my Ipad.Now onto the frustration1) There are absolutely no directions aside from those that are printed on the outside of the box and here they are Step 1 download the free app from their website Step 2 fire-up the building blocks Step 3 connect the block by connecting the dots2) Each block takes a few hours to charge...at least mine did3) You do not get full functionality with the Ipad app4) You do not get the 5 step-by-step activities if you are using the Ipad app5) If you try to install the regular app to your computer, it will quarantine it as a virus6) If you decide to be creative and just use their website to get the info you need, you will only find videos of the cool things they made and cannot easily determine which were built by the set you have7) There are no step by step pictorial guides to do any of the builds.8) Supposedly those step by step guides are imbedded in the computer app...that I could not get to work since my computer decided it was virus9) I contacted the company and they said they are still working out things with the app and directed me the website that I had already scoured.So given all this information, my suggestion would be for the company to have guides that are sortable by the kit you have, so you don't have to watch each video to figure out which pieces it uses only to find out you don't have what is needed to do that great project. I also think the Ipad app should provide a list of projects based upon the pieces that are connected and then guide you through the set up and build with simple to understand tutorials. I just think the lack of directions makes this kit so much more frustrating than fun.However, it really is an amazing product with a lot of potential and I am hopeful that they will continue to work on the their delivery of information so that it can be more user friendly out of the box. If you are already familiar with these types of products, or are an engineer, then you might find it more intuitive than I did.\n ","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"3.0","bestRating":5}},{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"A***N"},"reviewBody":"pretty packaging, sounds nice but nothing worked.

SAM simplifies the complexities that otherwise would exclude a larger audience of inventors and tinkerers. I like the concept and the initial offerings. This kit really demonstrates well what the potential can be. A well polished and easy to combine set of components. The higher price is even analogous. I must say that there are some growing pains with the system. It is not completely bug free and full featured, but I can see that I has been well refined. I have been hesitant to invest in arduino because I didn't want to have to learn advanced programming. I would rather assemble pre-programmed and or pre-coded devices. This really fits me well. I like it a lot. I hope that over time like Tesla Motors products that successive generations of products will become more affordable as the early ones funded the growth and manufacturing costs.
