I bought this for my niece who is obsessed with bugs at the moment (lol) and she loves this set. The vacuum actually works really well! I’ve used it to clean her playroom
No suction

Would give 0 stars if that was an option. Absolutely no suction. Such a disappointment for my kids. The light is also a joke as the “vacuum” and the “light” cannot be used simultaneously. False advertising. Returned.

Hi Manders - We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed with the B. toys Inspect An Insect Set. We are wondering if you replaced the batteries with new brand name ones. Often that's all our toys need to get up and running again. We hope that you will consider other B. toys items in the future. There are so many awesome toys to choose from! Sincerely, Team Battat

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids at age 5 and 7 really enjoy all of the pieces of this entire kit. The vacuum suction is not consistent in picking up bugs, but they had a blast regardless. A few times we found it difficult to get the bugs to come back out of the vacuum into the viewing jar. My kids used this set for play around the house with their other toys as well as outside.
Fun and unique

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This toy is fun for my son. He is 5 and thinks its so cool to havr a mini vacuum of his own. We havent been able to vacuum up any bugs yet because it winter but he likes to copy me when i clean and he vaccums up anything he can find. He cant wait for the summer so he can use this outside to play and find little bugs.

Received for Xmas and so the only bugs we found were ants and it didn’t have enough suction to consistently pick even them up. If you were at the perfect angle on hard wood floors or in your hand then 50/50 chance. Returned as it doesn’t work as described.

Not a real working vacuum

We love B. Toys brand, but this was a real miss. It states you can capture bugs. However, there is ZERO suction to the vacuum. It won't even pick up the decorative confetti that came in the tube.

Hi Staceynr1204 - We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed with the B. toys Inspect an Insect set. The vacuum should definitely have suction. You might find it helpful to review the video we have on our B. toys website that gives you step by step instructions on how to operate the vacuum. If it still doesn't work, you could try replacing the batteries, or if you would like us to follow up with you directly, please go to the B. toys website and click on "Contact Us" then "Customer Care". Complete the online form and someone at Battat will reach out. Sincerely, Team Battat
Great for kids who like bugs!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 6 year old seemed to like this bug vacuum. Not long after we opened it, she had caught an ant in it. The suction on the bug vacuum seems to do well with sucking up bugs. Once the bug is in the vacuum, it was a little bit harder to get the ant to come back out. She was finally able to get the ant in the container to look at it with the magnifying glass. The magnifying glass didn't work very well. Overall, this is a good product especially for kids who are curious about bugs.
They won't bug ya with this toy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids and niece had a blast playing with this. They used it in many ways, as a vacuum for their doll and to collect things. I love that they were able to use their imagination.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This toy is very nice to have. I have to admit that I didn't think my daughter would care for this. But I wanted to give it a try because she's isn't too fond of bugs and freaks out about any and every bug that may get in the house or be anywhere near her. I thought this might help her not be scared because she can look at the bugs and all that. Let me tell you she was so excited about it and I am so glad we have this. It's very fun and can be educational which is good for us as we homeschool.
Great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Using this as a gift for our youngest son who loves bugs. Anytime we go outside he’s playing with ants or chasing after rollypollies so this will be perfect for when it starts warming up! Thank you influenster for giving me this opportunity to be able to try these products out!
Awesome
