Have a Question? See What Others Asked

Are all doors numbered and sequenced so that you can have the radio finished on Christmas Eve?
This does have doors, the bit that appears to have no door is the outer sleeve of the product. You need to unwrap it?
Mine hasn’t come with an instruction booklet 🤦🏼‍♀️ How can I get hold of one?
Day 1 has instructions to feed cables through the plastic underneath which is impossible - you can't access underneath?! Any ideas?

Unique, fun and interesting advent calendar

Never seen anything like this before and it does need some crafting on the first day to get set up. I bought it for a friend and he really loved it. Something different and fun to pass a bit of time running up to Christmas. It's good quality and I think it was good value for money too.

Great kit!

We’ve all had fun building these circuits, so much more fun than some of the other calendars!

Looks good fun

Arrived promptly.Don't know what it is actually like as it's an Advent calendar and a gift for December

Great for the technical minded child

Liked the different elements you get. Gifted it to my Grandson.

Parts missing, flimsy, complicated

Bought for my 14 year old son, the instructions for building the cardboard console weren’t particularly clear and then there were parts missing. He gave up after opening a few doors so we have returned for a full refund. Lesson learned and would not buy similar again

Grandson loves it.

Asked my grandson to choose an advent calendar with a different twist. He chose this one and is really happy with it. Loves to tell me what's behind each door.

Unique Advent! Tons of fun!

Fantastic advent for those that are tired of chocs or want something engaging and different! My 13yr old is absolutely loving it!

The "RESISTER" was faulty and the batteries were flat. The complete advent calendar was useless.

Bought for grandson who is interested in electronics however the resister didn't work and the batteries were flat so the enjoyment was totally taken away... Very disappointed. (I purchased 2 different advent calendars and they were super...

My All-Time Favorite Calendar

Works exactly as advertised and is addictingly fun! I haven’t been this excited for a holiday calendar since I was a kid.I am an adult with basically zero previous experience on electronic circuits, and this calendar is teaching me so much and making me feel so proud and accomplished on a daily basis.I could not have asked for a better calendar, and I recommend it to anyone even remotely curious. Don’t even wait for December. Just get it as a hobby project for any month.

Not the greatest

Instructions hard to follow and very fiddly

Avoid this product

The package arrived late and was badly damaged (plus it is poorly built), and now, the sender wants me to cover return shipping. This is completely ridiculous.

Great gift for teen

Searched for an advent calendar for my pre-teen and ended up buying this one. He loves it!

Produkten är säkerligen bra

Värdelös säljare, paketet kom aldrig fram och nu verkar det inte finnas längre i deras butik. Ingen återkoppling från deras sida. Köp inget från denna säljare.
