Reviewed in Canada on July 30, 2024Verified PurchaseMon fileul l’adore
- Reviewed in Canada on November 22, 2024Verified PurchaseFor something aimed at kids, they should've spent a bit more time making it durable. It doesn't need all of the bells and whistles, but it's got to be able to take the abuse.
It's only slightly cheaper than comparable options on the site, and not waterproof, and doesn't feel solid at all. I think I'm going to pack it back up and return it and check other options.

5.0 out of 5 stars Big hit at the beach
Verified PurchaseBought for my son's 9th birthday. He likes to walk the creek, and beach looking for treasure. This is a great item for the price, I have bought many of national geographic items and they have all been great quality. It has a good weight to it without it being too heavy for kids. He and his friends used it recently at the beach and found all sorts of metal objects, mostly bottle caps, nails, and screws. But at least it helps clean the beach and stop anyone from stepping on a rusty metal object. He and his friends loved this toy.
