LAFALA Mini Remote Control Boat RC Boat 2.4Ghz 360 Rotating bulit-in Rechargeable Battery Swimming Pool Toys Remote Control Boats for Kids 8-12 Years Birthday Gift Red

Really fun to play with, steering takes a little getting use to. Boat is super light. Battery holds up well. Cheap fun for the kids!

Works great and is fun. Battery lasts for about 10 mins. It’s safe, my two year old loves it. Speed is great for beginners. And turns great in a little pool area. The only bad thing is mine did not come with a charger.

Bought it for a little boys birthday. He loves it! The only problem was it didn't come with batteries, so he had to charge it and wait to play with it on his birthday. I don't know if it's still going strong, but I know for a few weeks after his birthday he was still playing with it. It is tiny, fits inside a soda can.

This boat is not supposed to work unless it's in water to activate. The first few times it worked fine. Then while sitting on the counter it would start to run on it's own with the remote off. It would start and stop on it's own and kept running longer each time. My grandson was very disappointed because he enjoyed it while it worked properly. I ended up smashing it with a hammer to make it stop because you couldn't make it stop. Don't recommend it. Guess you get what you pay for.

Boat recharges with usb-c there is no sort of waterproofing for this charge port, so it does get wet. Boat is slower than expected, great for a bathtub but slow for a pool or pond/lake. Battery lasts about 10min. Charge takes around 10-15min. Boat steers to the right better than the left and generally doesn’t travel in a perfectly straight line… always curves to the right.

Super fun and easy to use. Charge lasts a long time. I put this in my koi pond and drive it around. The kids love it too.

Cool toy but does not turn very well at all!! Small boat needs big area to turn . Bad design..

What a fantastic little RC boat! Easy to use and recharge. I used this at a pool party and it was a complete hit! Everyone loves it because it's not too big it's about the size of a hot wheels car and it delivers great performance. You can do all kinds of rolls, reverse moves, as well as tight turns and maneuvers! Charging time is fast and it lasts about a good ten or fifteen minutes of use. I also like how it has a sensor that turns the boat off if it detects that the boat is not in water. Very well worth the $19.97 I spent on it!

Great toy for the bath! Just need to make sure to keep remote dry. The battery doesn’t last very long, but we were surprised at how fast it can go! My little guy loves it.

Got the rc boat without the boat?… only remote controller

It is what it is. 3.7 volt. Dual prop. Rolls left and right. Fast for the scale. Nice offshore V-hull.

The Mini Remote Control Boat RC Boat (ASIN B0CXT2QKXR) from LAFALA arrived in a neat cola can storage case and came with operating instructions and remote. The instructions state this comes with a USB charging cable, mine was missing. Also noteworthy, the remote requires batteries (not included). The boat looks great, and I love the tiny size - compact enough to buzz around a tub... but that's where the fun ends. The left and right controls roll/flip the boat, not change the direction. Also the boat is poorly balanced so easily upsets, not a problem in a tub, but certainly a problem in a pond if you have to wade around to fetch it. Further, I'm not comfortable with the USB charging port sitting on top of the boat with NO cover/protection. It can easily fill with water, and we all know what happens next when our phone's USB port detects moisture, or worse, what can happen to you if you plug a charger into a wet port. I just don't know why they didn't put a rubber stopper or something over it. Play time lasts approximately 10-15 minutes on a full charge.

In a nutshell - This Mini RC Boat is an entertaining and compact toy that comes in a pop-can-like packaging. It's easy to control and perfect for young children around 4-7 years old. While it offers good playability, it wasn’t as fast as I was hoping, and doesn’t perform as well as I would have liked. For instance, it actually goes faster in reverse than it does in forward. Fine for younger children, but may not be fast enough to entertain older children. Longer review: The Mini RC Boat arrives in a unique soda can-style packaging, making it a fun and compact gift. It's easy to control with the 2.4GHz remote, which offers forward, backward, left, right, and 360° self-rotating controls within a 10 meter (33 feet) range. The boat itself is rechargeable via USB-C, a convenient feature, although the controller requires two AA batteries (not included). Performance: In terms of speed, the boat is not particularly fast and curiously goes faster in reverse. Despite this, it remains entertaining for younger children. The boat's waterproof design ensures safe play in various water settings, from bathtubs to pools. However, it's arguably not suitable for larger bodies of water like lakes due to its limited range and speed. Battery & Build: The boat is built with a 3.7V 90mAh lithium battery, which charges in about 15 minutes and provides 10 minutes of playtime. The design is durable, made from high-quality ABS material, and includes a waterproof battery compartment to protect against water ingress. The compact size and easy-to-use controls make it an ideal toy for small water bodies. However, there is no water proof port on the USB-C charging port, so you’ll need to dry that out before attempting to recharge it. Pros: Very small Compact and unique packaging Easy to control with simple remote functions Quick USB-C charging Waterproof and durable build Cons: Not very fast, performs better in reverse Limited playtime of 10 minutes per charge Controller requires AA batteries (not included) Charging port has no plug, and needs to be dried out before recharging. Not suitable for large bodies of water Final Thought: This Mini RC Boat offers a delightful experience for young children, especially those new to remote-controlled toys. Its compact size and easy controls make it a great option for indoor and outdoor water play, and it’s small enough to use in a tub or kiddie pool. While it’s slow, and only runts for about 10 minutes, its fun design and ease of use make it a worthwhile purchase for the price. If you're looking for an affordable and entertaining RC toy for a young child, this mini boat is a solid choice. However, if you’re looking for an RC toy for a child 6 years old or older, you may want to look for something faster, as this may be too slow to hold their attention.
