Today only, Woot is offering the iRobot Root rt0 Coding Robot with Brick Top Bundle for $84.99 with free shipping for Prime members. Otherwise, a $6 delivery fee will apply. Regularly $150, today’s offer is 43% or $65 off the going rate, matching the Amazon all-time low, and the best we can find. It is also more than $10 under the base model. This is a programmable coding robot for kids and adults that features 20 reactive sensors/features and a focus on STEM learning. It directly connects with the iRobot Coding app with three learning levels that will grow with you through your coding journey as well as a host of lessons, projects, and activities. This one also includes the brick top that allows you to turn your robot into anything from a “mobile catapult to a glowing rocket ship” with support for a “variety of common building blocks, including LEGO bricks.” Rated 4+ stars and you can get significantly more details on what to expect from our launch coverage. Additional details below.
A more affordable way to introduce some coding fun into the mix is with the Sphero Mini App-Enabled Programmable Robot Ball starting from $40 shipped. This one carries stellar ratings from over 4,700 Amazon customers and provides a similar user-customized coding experience. It’s clearly not as robust overall, but it is one of the best in the category/price range.
Just make sure you dive into the ongoing Osmo Easter sale with up to 30% in savings. You’ll find iPad and Fire Tablet coding kits on sale from $21 right here as well as some add-on sets and more. Or just skip the coding gear altogether and get them Nintendo’s AR Mario Kart Live Home Circuit while it’s on sale.
