The toy worked well on the hardwood floor and the carpet although it didn't go over the bump between the two very well. the head didn't fall off although he did take the head off and call it his remote control soccer ball. : )
It came right on the day the seller predicted. Great seller and great toy.
It was so worth it 😁
First and foremost is that the head does fall off from time to time. It seems to have more to do with how sporadically you use the controls. Also, for the price, I couldn't expect much more and its infrequent enough that it's not a big problem.
The other issue is that you have to be somewhat careful to avoid big bumps. My son was trying to go from the kitchen floor into the living room, and hit a bump pretty hard. This caused BB-8 to stop working, and the only way to get it started again was to take the batteries out and re-insert them. This is only happened one time, and since then we've been more careful not to hit the bumps.
Other than that, the toy works very well, and works exactly the way the instructions say it should. It works great on the kitchen floor tile, and it works equally as well on carpet. It's pretty amazing to watch this little thing in action. Most of the problems that I've seen complaints about are overcome by taking a little time to learn how to best control it.
I'm not sure I'd buy again, but I'm also not sorry that I purchased it.

Con:
I can point out the problem with turning off the toy, because you have to keep it upside down to turn off however some times you might move it accidentally and it will turn on. For example i have put it in the closet and for some reason it was moved and turned on, considering the wired noise coming from the toy my wife thought there was a ghost in the closet!! and battery was gone!
Debo decir que es un excelente juguete y quizá adorno de escritorio. Puede ser que no tenga un movimiento tan fiel como la versión de Sphero, pero sin duda alguna, da pelea, pues es muy divertido de utilizar y cuando esta encendido en modo de espera, hace ruidos y movimiento de forma esporádica, haciéndolo parecer autónomo.
Si lo encuentran disponible, no duden ni un segundo pues por el precio (Que debe andar en unos $1299) vale totalmente pena. Si se encuentra agotado, activen las notificaciones con su Wish List, no le den dinero a esos sucios revendedores. Anexo unas fotos donde se puede apreciar el detalle de la figura, pues es muy bonita.

Don't expect high accuracy movements, or high tech controls. It's just fun to play with and they all love to see it roll and make these cool robotic noises.
Easy to use and assemble. Good quality in general (one or two small drops so far, and no issue).
It's easy to use for my kid and I don't need to be around when he plays with it. Safe.
Recommended for the price if you get it, like me, at around 50-60.00.
