Pros & Cons
Pros
The only downside i find in this kit is the resistors' quality - they're of a very cheap brand. The vendor's communication is great. Great packaging, great pricing and definitely worth the value spent.
There are over a hundred and thirty lessons and things to try in 4 different programming languages. There are also a variety of sensors including a camera kit an lcd module and more. This kit has everything for a great learning and prototyping experie... Read More
Your attitude and professionalism are second to none. Needed a bit of assistance and received prompt and friendly help via email. Easy to follow experiments will build your confidence. Just one more tip.
The resistors, in the kit, are 1/4 watt, with #28 or #30 hookup wires.
Cons
There are video tutorials, but they don't appear to align with the hardware projects. The tutorials don't seem to actually want to teach.
Highlights
Quality
This seems like an excellent kit for learning basic electronics and some python coding.
This is a nice kit that covers a lot of ground, and shows how the circuits work and gives some very good experience learning.
Using those wires to make a number of connections 1/2 inch to 1 inch apart creates a forest of wiring that is cumbersome at best.
I have not had a chance to work with the camera module, or any of the iot projects - it's going to be a while before i get to that!
Price
For the price, it comes with an incredible collection of parts, including a camera.
I got this on sale and i think it was worth it to have things to tinker around with.
I wouldn’t pay full price though, if it never went on sale i probably never would have gotten it.
There's no way i could acquire the huge variety of modules, small parts, wiring, on my own at anywhere near the price.
Shipping
Needed a bit of assistance and received prompt and friendly help via email.
Packaging/appearance
Great packaging, great pricing and definitely worth the value spent.
All the components come packed in a very small box, considering the large number of parts included.
I was afraid it'll be bulky, but everything comes packed neatly in a small box with dividers.
Competitiveness
Sunfounder is sponsering one of his raspberry pi online courses and so i bought this kit to follow along.

While the arduino kits come with a arduino clone, this kit will require the purchase of a raspberry pi, which is fine, consider... Read More

It has all the components youd need to follow along his course apart from a raspberry pi board that youd need to buy separately

Unlike an elegoo starter kit that i bought when following his arduino online course which came with an arduino uno r3 board within the box

But you cant expect to get a raspberry pi 4 at this price tag so its okay

I didnt understand why im struggling with the ones from the sunfouder kit and why they feel too brittle which got broken on me a few times when bending the legs to fit inside the breadboard which you need to adjust from project to project until i actually got the elegoos kit out from storage and compared them

As you can see from the pictures the ones that come in the elegoo kit have much thicker legs than the ones in the sunfounder kit

Im not sure why sunfounder had decided to go with these cheap resistors for beginners

I actually got two kits this sunfounder kit and the freenove kit
