daniel plummer: Another great product from Dr Otek! This light weight and compact detector is great for beginning kid detectorists as well as adults! It is simple as well as entertaining to use and for a lightweight &inexpensive metal detector, it is very accurate and quite impressive and folds up small enough to fit in a backpack, or shoulder carry bag. The included sand sifter & plastic digger are perfect for searching sandy areas for hidden treasures! No regrets on this purchase!

CraftyGrandma: I got this for my grandson and he had fun at the beginning, then it stopped working and not picking things up, so my son got him a better quality detector. If you want a bargain detector for a child, to have a bit of fun, this will work well enough.

Courtney: I've never used a metal detector before this, but was trying to think of something creative for my 8 year old's birthday gift. He has so many toys that don't get played with, and they all basically do the same thing anyways. I wanted to get him something to get him outdoors exploring more. Since I think I was even more eager than he was to see if it worked, I skipped reading the directions altogether and just started walking around with it. It was very simple to understand that beeping and colored lights meant there was some sort of metal found. I actually didn't ever get around to reading the instructions, but my guess is that each color represents a different type of metal. He doesn't really care to get into that much detail, he (and I) just like walking around searching for "pirate" treasure...so far, nothing of value, but fun just the same. There are a few times when it has indicated a find, but we did not find anything. I'm thinking maybe it was buried deeper than we cared to dig. (The first thing he found was rebar under the cement slab, which to his dismay, I told him we could not dig to!) I should add that my son is special needs, and he had no issues with grasping the...

Chad Deville: We bought this metal detector for my son's 7th birthday. He has been wanting one since he watched a Dude Perfect episode where they were using one. This metal detector is light weight and the perfect size for a child or adult as it is adjustable. It is easy to use and we found it to be accurate. We took it to the beach and have been hunting for treasure in the yard. Keeps the kids busy outside.

Richard: The media could not be loaded.  This was surprisingly fun and accurate, I had a lot of fun with the kids using this. One of the favorite games I would play with my boys is “Treasure Hunt”, and this took it to a whole new level. I buried a bunch of quarters and nickels around the play mulch in our backyard and then challenged them to go find them after teaching them how to use this. It was so much fun! I look forward to taking this to the beach and forest trails to see what else we can come up with!

It’s straightforward in its use and simple enough for even young children to use and operate. The metal detector can differentiate between quarters, nickels, and iron-based metals, and flashes a different color to indicate what you found. It telescopes to different lengths to allow kids to adjust it to their height, and has two modes: one for general sweeping and a pinpoint mode to narrow down the location of the metal. Highly recommended for anyone interested in doing real-life treasure hunting with their kids!
