ESSENSON Outdoor Explorer Kit & Bug Catcher Kit

Purchased this for my grandson's 4th Birthday and he loved it! Very happy with the quality and affordable price. I like that the flashlight is hand squeeze, no batteries. Unfortunately the bug catching tongs were dropped on the floor (by me) soon after he opened the gift and the plastic piece broke off at the joint and they wouldn't stay together. But, no worries, I hopped on Amazon and ordered a replacement (pictured below) and was very happy with the quality of that product. Otherwise, I would highly recommend this kit if you have a curious 4 year old.

Purchased for Easter and my child has been obsessed since. We use it every spring and summer. Great quality as well. We were gifted another set shortly after and this one was the better quality set so we regifted that one. Perfect for the curious kiddo in your life!

Great product at a great price, butterfly net is pretty short and flimsy (but it is a kids set). Only issue was Amazon shipped it in the product's box and then delivered to my front porch after a rainy morning. Still waiting to see if I'll be able to dry out the box and make it look okay enough to give as a gift but may have to find an alternative box for the items.

My son Was super excited to get this set. He's been using it everyday. He loves that he can look at the bugs up close with the magnifying glass and in the little container with the magnifying lid. A few negatives, the net it comes with is tiny. My fault for not taking a closer look and seeing how small it would be. But you can't really catch anything with it, especially bigger butterflies and dragonflies. I ended up buying him a bigger net that's much better. The weird tong bug catching tool is super flimsy and fell apart after just 3 days... I keep having to snap it back together which is somewhat annoying. The carrying case to hold the bugs in is great, but the door to it doesn't latch well and opens easily letting bugs escape. The hat it comes with fits my son but the elastic string on it is huge, doesn't adjust and gets in his way while he's running around and it bugs him and he takes it off. All in all, it's a cute set and my son still enjoys using it. I paid almost $40 for it including shipping and I feel like it could be a little better made for that price. But it is for kids, so there's that.

Bought it for my baby nephew (he’s 5) because he was going camping. Let me tell you it’s a 10/10. He figured out how to use everything. He loved the little bugs that came in it and refused to take off the whistle and binoculars. The hat was a little big, but he is quite small. And I wish it came with walkie talkies, but I bought those separately and he had a great time.

This is a great gift! I purchased this for my grandson who loves to look for bugs. I wanted a way for him to be able to catch and release. It's a great value!

My grandson was so excited to get this

My 4 year old who is fascinated with insects absolutely loves this kit and was so excited to open it up. Was disappointed to see the door to the big cage was already cracked when we opened it. Everything is pretty cheaply made and probably won’t hold up in the long run so it doesn’t seem worth returning it when he was already so excited opening it. UPDATE: The seller reached out after seeing this review and issued a refund. Due to the great customer service, I would definitely purchase another product from them in the future.
