Recommendation: no 7 / 10 by VBBN

It manages to take the small size of its early predecessor, yet combine it with some of the better functionality of its bigger brother. The single boom design can cause the function to be a little shaky, but other than that, it serves the set well. The build experience certainly isn't quite as good as its larger brother, but I often enjoy unique builds like this, rather than more standard cars.

Recommendation: meh by Jetro de Château

The build is very straightforward and there is little to comment on. [...] Once extended, the arm is a bit shaky, making it a little harder to play with the model.

Recommendation: meh by Huw

There's nothing here really that'll be of interest to AFOLs -- other than a pair of black bushes that have not been used in a Technic set since 2005 -- but as a means of introducing the more advanced building system to a youngster and fostering an interest in mechanics and machines, it's ideal.

Recommendation: meh by Sam Wharfe

Overall, this is a fun little model with some satisfying touches that will have a lot of appeal for those looking for an introduction to Technic. While it might not offer anything new to veterans of the theme, it's still got enough going on at a low cost to make it worth checking out.
