Mostly satisfied, but the shipping status was unclear and it was uncertain when it would arrive. Also, the motor for the "pitch" on the IR Turret does not work correctly, as it gets really hot and was... See more

My son has been watching Mark Rober for quite a while now and he was overwhelmed with joy that he was able to build something that he saw on the show! He is bright-minded and creative and I feel that this allowed him to feel capable and even more interested in science and engineering than he was before! We are both stoked to see what comes next month!

I tried to call five days in a row with no answer. I tried to order online several times and the page that finalizes things wouldn't load. I finally contacted your team via Instagram and got it resolved. One of the pieces in the kit broke and had to be repaired. We have purchased kiwi crates for years and never had these issues. I'm very concerned about my purchase.

Easy from start to finish

It was easy to sign up and the communication from the time it was packaged and shipped was awesome
We actually got our first box today and my son is 8 and enjoyed it and is excited for next weeks . It was easy to put together and fun to watch him figure it out by the video.

Great for my 6 year old.

My 6 yo child and his father built it together. They were all smiles the whole time and super excited. Played with it for a long while after it was done too. This will be a good bonding item for them.

Extremely unhappy with the crunchlab…

Extremely unhappy with the crunchlab subscription. After my son has been watching many time the crunchlab Netflix series asked for a subscription. We’ve purchased it on April 3rd, 2026, they’ve created a shipping label a week after the order has been placed after I’ve called them to inquire about the order. The order has never left production facility. Called back a week later was told the package is lost and they will send another one, created a new shipment label. Another week passed, same story, never left the facility. Called them back and requested a full refund and cancellation, was told to give it a chance as they have been updated on some issues related to shipments. They constantly create new labels or come up with different excuses and stories. I don’t trust this company and cannot believe Netflix plays his series to make people believe it is a legitimate business. Very disappointing and more sad about seeing my son’s disappointment. I would give it 0 starts if I could at this point.

Update: we received the package.

Hi Danielle,

I sincerely apologize for the horrible shipping service you have received. We have been experiencing some shipping delays across multiple carriers, both domestic and international, and am so sorry that it has affected you. Please share your email so I can look into your account, and make sure that you have received a full refund.

Good toys, HORRIBLE shipping

It's not that the company is so bad, because the toys are fun and my grandson loves them, but it is the shipping company they use that is horrible.
Apparently, they use a third-rate company that then hands the package off to the USPS for final delivery. I've been on the phone with them numerous times to no avail, as it keeps happening every month. They are fully aware of the situation and are looking for a new distributor, while my grandson suffers. Be sure to look at your payment method, because it automatically renews next year, and they WILL NOT be getting me back next year!

Hi Joe,

I am so sorry to hear that your grandson's subscription has been affected by our recent shipping delays. The carriers have been reporting longer than average delivery times, and we are actively working with them to find the root cause of the issue and improve transit times for future deliveries. If you have a package that has not seen any movement for over 2 weeks, please reach out to our customer service team, at help@crunchlabs.com and they can help create a replacement. We greatly appreciate your patience and support during this time, and appreciate your feedback.

best,
Rachel
