Good for children with some limitations

This model is pretty good for the price with no problems with pairing the remote with the truck. The bed doesn't lift up high enough most times to empty out the dirt. I got the excavator model that I believe is the same brand and hoped it worked well together. This truck is just a bit too tall for the excavator arm to reach without hitting it.

Pros
  • 12 x 6 x 6 inches
Cons
  • The truck's horn sound effect is too loud and may annoy parents or other adults

The amazing little dump truck you have bee searching for

Awesome little truck. It isn’t that big but it is pretty cool. Decent speed. Goes over moderate off-road and plush carpet terrain. Battery lasts about an hour before you have to put it on the charger. Carries more than you might think, maybe 3 or 4 pounds. Dumps the bed via remote control. My 3 year old loves it so much I have to hide it. I bought an extra battery and the optional wall charger. It is a weird yellow color, not Caterpillar yellow but more like Gulden’s Mustard. Mine came with a…

Pros
  • No está mal para el precio
Cons
  • The truck may be too complicated for young children to operate

Great customer care!

Not very happy with this truck.Update May 5 2019.Tom from Fisca contacted me and made the issue that I had right. He told me that they will be improving this product so that charging issues like I had will not be a problem anymore. I recommend this seller.

Pros
  • Promotes a love of construction and engineering in kids
Cons
  • The truck may be too fragile to withstand rough play

Missing items on my review.

The controller was damaged upon arrival and missing the rc battery. Was neither in box or in the toy. Was giving this as a gift to my son as we were going on vacation. Very disappointing.

Pros
  • No
Cons
  • The truck's movement is too loud and disturbing

Battery won’t charge

Opened Christmas Day, Battery won’t charge. How do we get a new charger and battery. The other two items we purchased work fine.

Pros
  • Encourages teamwork when shared with others
Cons
  • The truck's remote control may need frequent resetting

Not that great on my review.

Bought this as a gift for my son. It works well indoors. We tried to use it in the driveway, and it did not do very well. We were expecting a little more power, and ability to carry a small load. The battery doesn't last very long either and takes quite a bit of time to charge.

Pros
  • bought this for my son and he loves it.
Cons
  • The LED lights are too dim and do not serve much of a purpose

Cheap quality: my feedback

My father had me order this for my son for Christmas. When the first one arrived, we opened the box and one of the wheels had broken off. You guys shipped out another one and it was fast and easy to return the broke one. Unfortunately within a week the right side of the new one completely stopped working. I don’t want to be a pain and return it again and I don’t have the box anymore. Best Buy has been great with exchanges but this product I feel is very cheaply made and not durable for the…

Pros
  • 4 Wheel Drive & 6 Channel: Go forward / backward; Turn left / right; Dump bed up and down. 4 Wheels drive, enough power to fully load.
Cons
  • The truck's battery compartment is too small and difficult to open

Nothing like the real thing.

Well for starters it is way smaller than the excavator, and I'm not for sure but I would guess it has all plastic gears because it isn't able to lift much at all. Returned

Pros
  • appears to be well made
Cons
  • The tires do not have sufficient traction, making it difficult to drive on uneven surfaces

Easy for a child to operate

Great value for the money, I am not sure I would roll it down the mountain side as you see in videos depicting this very nice unit, but it is sturdy. The battery life between charges is not the best, but it may be because I have had it running on carpeted areas that do slow it down.

Pros
  • 3154
Cons
  • The truck's design is too outdated and may not appeal to modern children

*****UPDATE*****After a handful of mostly disappointing uses (see earlier review) the truck stopped working. At first I thought sand/junk may have gummed up the works, but after a complete breakdown didn't find an issue. Ended up rigging a different battery to see if that was the issue - and it was! The battery maybe lasted 6 recharges before going kaput. Now I either have a useless toy, a project to make a new battery pack, or 12 - 20 bucks more out of pocket to buy another battery. Meh.*****…

Pros
  • Ideal toy for kids who love construction and big trucks
Cons
  • The truck's dump bed may easily become detached from the truck

Excellent, but buy an extra (2000mAh) battery pack.

There aren't to many dump trucks available that can steer left and right.This one does that and it can dump the bed.My 2yr old loves it and I do too.It comes with a rechargeable battery pack that runs out pretty fast since it is only 700mAh, try to find one that is 2000 or more mAh. There are plenty available here on Best Buy for about $15.

Pros
  • This works great my son and I love this
Cons
  • The remote control is unreliable and may not work all the time

Great construction toy

Great toys for boys who likes construction toys and love to play outside. Our son likes this toy and can play all day long in his sand box and also he likes to carry rocks. Good quality material, moves forward, backward, right, left and the dump goes up and down. Great addition in his collection.

Pros
  • Made with high-quality materials for durability
Cons
  • The truck's dump bed may not hold much cargo

Great Fun!: my feedback

I gave this to my grandson last Christmas. He still loves it and plays with it all the time. It is very durable as he can be rough with his toys.

Pros
  • Great little truck, but the remote was dropped and the joystick snapped. Truck is unusable now.
Cons
  • The battery life is too short and drains quickly

DOES NOT CHARGE!: my feedback

This product right out of the package lasted 3 minutes. Charged the battery overnight, dead. Put brand new batteries in the controller; dead. Very disappointing. Purchased 4 separate and only 1 works fine do you believe that? this will be going back for sure and this is very inconvenient. disappointment on my childs face. Wish toy stores existed. this could easily been solved but now I'm not sure if I'm going to ever buy toys online again. 1 out of 4! ughhhh

Pros
  • Enhances fine motor skills and hand dexterity in young children
Cons
  • The truck's battery may be difficult to replace

Lots of fun! for my opinion

One of the favorite toys for our kids! They love the "dump" feature, and keep filling it and dumping a all londs of smaller toys from it. The joystick is easy to control. Battery life seems long which is great. So far it seems durable, hope it will stay that way. We have carpet and laminate wood in our home and it drives well over both. It would be nice So much fun for the kids, thank you so much!

Pros
  • This was bought for my grandson. He loved it so much I bought more of there products.It's very sturdy.
Cons
  • The truck's sound effects are too loud and irritating

GREAT Customer Service

Bought the truck for my 3yr old Grandson, and he hasn't left it alone. Nicely built for the money - real rubber tires and skid-steer operation. If I had one suggestion for the manufacturer - I would ask for White rather than Red headlights (it would make night operation more fun for the child). Prompt, courteous feedback from their Customer Service Rep Tom. I will purchase from them again no question. Jim

Pros
  • Fisca
Cons
  • The truck's color scheme is uninspiring and dull

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Ok but don't expect much.

It's ok and looks good but the controls are confusing for small kids since you must push up on both controllers to go forward and down on both to get back. Also left and right directions are also left and right sticks so control is not optimal. Battery is also garbage and burns out quickly so expect to charge often. A higher mah battery would of been much better. Movement is slower than molasses going up hill on a cold windy day (ok maybe not that slow) and I didn't expect too much speed but it

Pros
  • Allows kids to learn about how dump trucks work
Cons
  • The truck's design is too masculine and may not appeal to girls

DIRTY, dog hairs, missing parts TRASH truck

I was pretty excited about this truck. Bought it for my 2year old grandson that loves trucks! It arrived quickly BUT as we opened it. It was filthy , greasy with white dog hairs all over. Massive fingerprints all over. Right away thought of COVID19 all over this Gross truck! Next we flipped it over as im now wearing gloves, to undo the battery compartment to charge. Mind you there’s NO INSTRUCTIONS. There is no adapter to connect the battery pack to the truck, plastic piece broken inside of the

Pros

Good Purchase! for my opinion

Just what I was looking for at a great price! My nephew is obsessed with construction equipment, and this remote control dump truck is a great addition to his fleet of construction vehicles. It is made well, has fun lights, easy to use remote, and it comes with a rechargeable battery. Good purchase!

Pros
  • My son love ir
Cons
  • The truck's movements are jerky and not smooth
