Got these last time they were on woot. Pretty fun while they lasted which was about two days. They charge really quick which is nice, but the first one started to veer off to one side after the first couple of uses and would never go straight again after that. The second one just stopped charging after about 5 charges or so. Not so fun anymore.

Aside from that my 3.5 year old girls really had fun with them while they worked and still play with the one that doesn't go straight; they just spin it in circles now. Most of their hot wheels fit, but they used the cars that came with them the most. Not all cars fit, only the ones that have short rear ends.

Previous woot: $14.99, $2 less now

I was considering getting this for my almost 2-year-old, but eight minutes of run time is way, way too short. He isn't going to understand the need to stop and recharge all the time.

As an aside, I was wondering… are you able to run these by themselves, with no car attached?
