Metal Detector for Kids GC-1003

Easy to learn to use! Worked great! Lots of fun hunting treasures! Hours of outdoor fun! He loved it and his sister wants one too! Perfect for his age!

My 8 yr old grandson is going love this, this is my 3rd purchase of these where I've already bought my other 2 grandsons one as well!! Can't wait to see all 3 of them using these next weekend during our family get together beach trip. Works get for price, very simple to operate

I purchased three different detectors all around the same price range for an Xmas gift so I could test them all. This was the only one I kept as it seemed to do a pretty good job at my test which was three coins under about 2.5” of dirt. It’s lightweight, but does seem a little flimsy, so I’m not sure how long it will survive my 6 year old’s exploring.

Easy to use, well made, and works !!Sturdy carrying case with outside pockets and strap.

4 year old loved finding hidden trucks in his sandbox

This came in plastic wrap and caked in sand.

I AM WRITING TO UPDATE THIS REVIEW, BECAUSE I WAS SO TAKEN WITH HOW AWESOME THE SELLER WAS FOR CONTACTING ME ABOUT MY CONCERN AND RECTIFYING THE PROBLEM FAR BEYOND MY EXPECTATIONS.I simply cannot recommend this seller enough, and I wish to applaud Violet for her patience and sincere efforts to rectifying the situation for me. Not only did she go above and beyond but she gave me a choice of options to correct the situation, and she took the time to thank me for my honest feedback. This meant a lot to me and in the end my child got a new metal detector in the correct color he wanted. This made my child so incredibly happy and I am truly very thankful to the seller for all her kindness and sincere efforts to find such an outstanding solution.As for the product, it works great. You will not be disappointed in this metal detector at all. It is made very well and it works perfectly. It keeps my little guy very happy and busy in the back yard, front yard, at the lake, and at the cabin. We could not be more pleased.Thanks again to Violet. I pray you have many years of steady sales and increases to your fortune. God bless!!!!As an adult, when it comes to metal detectors and other technology, color is usually not a big deal for me unless I am buying it for a special needs kiddo on the autism spectrum who has sensory processing disorder.Given that this is a child's metal detector the listing really ought to mention whether the colors are yellow, blue, or random, etc. At the time I purchased this there was no mention anywhere on the listing of any color deviation from the blue metal detector that is pictured. What I received was in the exact same branded box with the same model number on the box as the last one that I got last year. The one I receive last year was blue. This one is yellow. This was meant to be a gift for a child with special needs. Yellow just will not do. So I am returning this one for inaccurate website description and making the suggestion for Amazon or the seller to fix their website listing.

I wanted to check it out before I gave it to my grandson. For starters I tried a penny on the floor, not even covered with anything. Not detected. 2 quarters were detected only if I swept slowly multiple times an inch above their surface. Didn't work at all when I covered the quarters with 1" of soil.Worked okay on an altoid box covered in 1" but this detector isn't going to be much fun for my 7 year old grandson.Returning it for a refund. Other reviews said coins were detected in 4 " of soil. Maybe this one's a lemon.

Cheap plastic.
