Fun toy for adults, cat loves it too

So our cat was afraid of this robot at first. I think every cat should be like this, they are the same size and make quite a bit of noise when they move. But once he found out he was constantly handing out treats, he became his best friend and he would come running whenever he heard the noises he was making. It took about 3 weeks to feel comfortable. The robot often got stuck on the edges of my mats, I actually changed the wheels, reducing the size of the rollers and increasing the size of the drive wheels with 3D printed parts. The rollers that come with it are really not very good, they don't spin well and therefore don't 'throw', but now I have no problem driving around the house. It wobbles a lot when it moves and makes more noise on the hardwood floor, but it's worth not getting stuck. If your robot keeps getting stuck, consider taking the wheels out and seeing if that helps. I think sticky rollers also cause steering problems. I believe it is a toy, so just learn how to play. If it gets stuck somewhere don't drive there, if it's difficult to steer slow down The app was a bit buggy but the support team was friendly and helpful. I would recommend emailing them issues rather than complaining here as they went out of their way to really fix my issue Battery life seems pretty good, I think it said '7 days standby' and it seems to do it justice even after driving a bit during that time. It actually works when plugged in (you can't even control it! but the manual says you can't). So you can use it as a stationary camera with constant power supply when you want to go away for a month. The video is limited to 30 seconds, but it isn't. That's not why I bought this robot. You can share with family members but for some reason I can't figure out that only the main user can move the camera up and down. Everyone can drive, feed and move the toy, but only one person can change the camera angle. Weird Wi-Fi: Please note that this product, as well as every Wi-Fi IoT device ever made, requires a dedicated 2.4GHz WiFi network. If you already have a smart home, you'll understand exactly what I mean. If you don't already have one, you will eventually need it to use any of the cool Wi-Fi IoT products on Amazon like switches or security cameras, so I say just get a dedicated 2.4GHz router and remember not to place it next to your current one. !5 stars despite the issues because we had a lot of fun, our cat really became friends with her and the support team answers questions
