Summary: Lego Mindstorms teaches you about robotics
Comment: Lego Mindstorms is a fine toy for the young and old. However this is not the typical Lego set every one is used to. It is far more than that and getting started takes a lot of reading, experimenting, and perseverance. This is not a toy that you can just take out of the box and start playing with. However this toy does have a huge fan base world wide and there is a lot of on line support for this toy for it is highly regarded. The programming language which consists of symbolic command blocks is very difficult to learn from the built in help menus that comes with the software, instead buy the book Lego Mindstorms NXT-G Programming Guide by James Floyd Kelly. This book breaks down the instructions into finely detailed descriptions that allow you to fully understand the capabilities of each one. I coached a group of Junior High School students at the Arthur S. Somers School in Brooklyn New York for the 2008 Lego League Climate Connections Challenge and we did quite well, and had a lot of fun too. This toy allows individuals to build and cultivate mechanical engineering concepts and computer programming skills in a fun way that allows one to create robots or machines of their own design. I highly recommend it. LEGO Mindstorms NXT

Summary: Lego Mindstorms NXT is fun training for future scientists
Comment: Fortunately we have a friend who lives in the USA and came to Brazil and so, could bring it to us here where the retail prices are prohibitive, around R$ 1,999 Brazilian Reais that make today over US$ 1,000 ... It is a high tech toy which is available is some very few good schools where there are few robots to be used by large groups of students. As my son aged 12 showed interest we got him one Lego Mindstorms NXT for his personal use, and some of his friends come to play with him. It is fun for him and friends, it is a toy that helps him and friends to develop technical skills, habilities, competencies. Hope that they be able to develop lower cost robots like that here in Brazil, to proportionate this opportunity to more children, and so, get a better standard of living for all. It is a marvelous, intelligent toy. Strongly recommend it to all.

Summary: Great way to get kids (and adults) into object based programming and automation
Comment: As a mechanical engineer who uses labview daily, I was excited to upgrade to the nxt. I have some projects in mind and this is a great value for intial concept work. I also want to use this for hobbyist projects as well and am encouraged by the aftermarket support.

Summary: NXT - Taking it to the NeXT Level
Comment: The Lego NXT is more than just a toy. The NXT is an excellent tool to learn about computer programming languages such as C, Java, and even Lisp. The experiential hands-on education of robotics (designing, building, and programming robots) also provides an excellent tool for learning general Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) topics, pre-CS1 for computer science majors and students considering a CS major, teaching computer science, teaching artificial intelligence (AI) concepts, and K-12 outreach and enrichment. In this regard, the value of robotics lies in its concrete character, and its service as a bridge between operational and abstract levels of thinking.

Summary: Lego Mindstorms NXT, un excelente paquete de robótica
Comment: Hi there, I wrote this review for people who speaks spanish.
El paquete de robótica Lego Mindstorms NXT es un excelente producto para iniciarse en el mundo de la robótica. Así como su predecesor, el Lego Mindstorms Robotics Invention System, la compañía lego lo construyó de muy buena calidad a un excelente precio. La facilidad de poderlo programar en varios lenguajes de programación, entre ellos C y Java lo hacen muy atractivo para uso educativo tanto en programación como en robótica. En general, es un paquete muy usado en todo el mundo, para fines educativos, incluso de investigación a nivel universitario y posgrado.
