Love the kit, I have been in the electronics industry for 41 years.

The content isn't well done. Videos are missing. They say they're in the process of updating the videos but they won't provide any clarity on when new videos might be ready.

This is the best coding experience I have ever had.

So the Lost in space kit was a fun and affordable package that can teach some coding logic and circuitry. It has been fun learning some of the logic behind code, as I am certainly not a coder! I am not sure of the target age group but I found it fun and challenging. This is not just a simple circuit that makes a bulb glow! Bottom line, it was fun.

Austin, I really appreciate the great personal customer service and the feeling of being a part of a big community of hobbyists! I understand there are always pain points to start up. Again, thank your for sticking in there for us. We will keep going on our end as happy consumers.

Got the lost in space kit. It has lots of fun little projects to build that progressively help you learn about how to control devices with the microprocessor. Had a hardware issue but their customer service was excellent and handled it quickly to resolve my issue.

Only problem I've had over the months I've been using Inventr is that twice I went to log in and the site was down. The site and materials themselves though? Highly recommend. Tons of fun and the material is always interesting

I recently purchased the 30 Days Lost in Space Kit, as it looked like a fun concept and saw great reviews. I was very disappointed in the videos and teaching. The programmer presenting the course made very many mistakes for someone who is supposed to teach this. The concepts weren't clearly explained so much of it was "hookup wires like this and run this program... whee!" I think more money was spent on video graphics than content. Unscripted, probably without even so much as an outline, and every episode seemed like a one-take and done. There couldn't have been any beta testers or even alpha before the course was released, given the problems, and from looking in the comments section. I even believe one of the quiz questions was incorrect (I've been in Embedded Software development long than the presenter has been alive, trust me.) I think they're redoing the courseware, we'll see how that goes. The theme is cute, but they should have a serious sidebar that explains the concepts and devices being introduced in each episode, and links to more information. As the current version stands, it seems more like a High School Science project. I think their hearts are in the right place though, and I look forward to more from them once they straighten it out.
