We bought this toy for my nephew at Christmas. It was the hit of the day, the most popular toy in the house. Even the adults liked it.

Pretty cool October 23, 2008 Reviewer:  Brian T. Taylor Real Name (ca)  See all my reviews >

this works REALLY surprisingly well....but after i bought it, I was thinking of the bad example I was teaching my kids-- other then the idea, it's a cool toy...but be careful...because this toy and other spy toys really instigates kids to start spying...and that is a new habit we are trying to break now--that didn't exist before this toy came into our home.

For the price I paid I expected better. This device is powered by a 9-volt battery that doesn't even fit inside the shoddily constructed "battery compartment", so I am forced to use it with the battery hanging. The dish comes with a hole in it, which reduces effectiveness. Overall I'm not very happy with this product, I bought one years ago for less that worked much better, my old one could pick up sound through walls, this one just gives me feedback when I try. I wouldn't recommend this product.
