Review: My grandson loved this gift
Review: We like the National Geographic brand; we also have the rock tumbler. My 10 year old son got this metal detector for Christmas. He LOVES it, and has taken it in our yard and to a river (where we learned some volcanic rocks have metal in them- so the river was a bust). He hasn’t found anything valuable yet, but has found nails, springs, and a tack pin. :) This is a good way to keep him busy when we’re out adventuring. It was very easy to assemble and easy for him to use. It takes a 9 volt battery, but seems to last a long time.
