4.0 out of 5 stars The Lee Rocketeers, 30 Dec 2004
By Chris, Andrew and David (Farnborough, Hampshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Durability:2.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 
Our first attempts were not too successful, because we used baking powder instead of bicarbonate of soda. This achieved several launches of 30 to 40 feet.
After we acquired the bicarbonate of soda, we achieved a better launch rate and finally achieved a height well in excess of 80 feet the landing however was onto tarmac which resulted in the total destruction of the rocket body. hence our search leading us to this site.

4.0 out of 5 stars cosmic rocket: warning, 26 Jul 2006
By Mr. S. A. Barker - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This product is really good and very simple to do, however make sure you launch, and more importantly, land onto grass. Our first attempt was off concrete and was great until it landed back onto the concrete. Although there were no obvious breaks, the landing damaged the rocket and now the mixture leaks out of the bottom and it doesn't work anymore. As with the other review, we have purchased another as it is definately worth another go!

4.0 out of 5 stars Science in action, 20 Sep 2009
Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars 
The ultimate boy-toy to teach science.
We were given this for Christmas and tried it out at home a few times where it was fun. However, it really came into its own at Cub Camp where we did a Science badge. We did an initial 'experiment' making volcanoes with vinegar and baking soda and then re-applied the process with the rocket. The kids learned a lot and had a ball.
Warning! You do need a huge open space for this - we used one end of a football pitch as it doesn't always fly straight up. Think fireworks! Keep the kids well away from the rocket, once the stuff is mixed, even when it looks like it won't launch - it has a phenomenal power. Highest we got was about 65 ft.
