Customer Reviews
It's fun... for the pool.
This is a pretty neat toy. However, don't buy it unless you have a swimming pool to use it in. It tends to "get away" from kids in a lake (a lesson we learned the hard way). Also, it does not have a disable control that would cause it to rise to the surface immediately... so if it get's out of range... she's going to the bottom. In a pool this is no problem. In a lake, you may never find it again. Duh, right? Well, trying telling a kid that he can't use his super-cool remote control shark in the lake....
Poor product
I would not recommend buying this product. First the battery compartment on the shark would not open. We spent hours (literally) trying to open it and finally ended up opening it with a drill. The shark worked nicely until my son went into the swimming pool with the remote (it is clearly stated on the box that the remote control is intended for use in the water). The remote control is definitely NOT waterproof! We could hear the water sloshing around inside the remote control and the product never worked after that. I expected a durable product for the price. On the up side Amazon handled the return very professionally. No problem getting my money back.
