A little scary but fun!
If you get this it is important to know that it's very unpredictable!You can make it go higher by placing your hand or an object directly underneath.You can potentially change the speed at which it flies by how fast you move your hand in its path.It is semi random in the direction it goes, it seems kind of influenced by the direction in which you place your hand under it in order to make it fly higher. So if you slide your hand from the right to the left, it will often head to the left. But sometimes it just goes up or in other directions.If you need to grab it to redirect it's trajectory, grab it from the side around the legs. It you try to grab from the bottom it just flies out of reach. If you grab the legs, it's less likely to hit you with the wings, which spin really fast!It does hurt a little if it runs into you but it's not exceptionally painful or too awful.The unpredictable nature of it's flight and the fact that it does hurt a bit and frequently crashes into things (including you) makes it a tad terrifying.If it does crash, it will need to be turned off and back on again in order to reset it. Otherwise, it just blinks at you and won't fly.However scary and unpredictable it may be, my toddler, adult kid, husband and myself all laugh hysterically (mainly because the toddler's laugh is infectious) as this crazy toy crashes all around the house.It's easy to recharge (comes with the cord, standard USB), pretty sturdy considering how many times it's run into my walls, soft enough that it hasn't damaged my walls or my family, and my kids love it! So all in all, I call it a win!

Requires some focus
My daughter really liked this toy. Some of the reviews mentioned that it doesn’t fly well, or that it breaks easily. The wings can come off easily or break so one needs to be careful with it. It also takes a little practice to get it to fly right without crashing. My husband and my daughter like figuring out these sorts of things so for them it was a lot of fun. I can see that it might not be for everyone but it’s an inexpensive gift.

What a great git for a child.
I bought this for my three year old niece. She loves it. It takes a bit of getting used to how it functions. But it's a lot of fun learning. Keep in mind. It will crash into everything nearby. (part of the fun). So make sure you don't use it in a room with ceiling fans, breakable objects, or fireplaces. Have fun.

Cool toy
My daughter loves this toy. It's best to fly it with no fans on. It helps it fly out of your hand better

Grand daughter BDAY
My grand daughter loves her crystal fairy, the way the crystal fairy lights up and spins around the room is magical. I will continue to buy her more crystal fairies to give the one she has, friends to fly with her..LOVE THE HAPPY SMILE MY GD HAD.

Disappointing and flawed design
This was a birthday gift for my daughter, but I ended up taking her to choose something else at the store because we were both very dissatisfied with the product. The concept of a hovering, "flying" pixie-themed toy is nice and my fairy-crazy child was very interested - hence the birthday gift purchase. While the detailing of the doll is decent and the crystal-y egg storage compartment is pretty (though bulky and hard to open), the actual function of the toy left something to be desired. The power switch is located on the underside of the "skirt" section and is quite small, making it difficult to turn on and off with the various wing-blade sections flopping in the way. It is just plain awkward to handle. The instructions actually say that to stop the pixie you can either wait for it to run out of battery OR catch it by the legs. Just catch it by the legs, no further instruction. Well, catching it by the legs does nothing except leave you with rapidly rotating plastic in close proximity to your hand. It will not turn off if it is tipped over, only if the wings come in contact with something such as when it crashes. So let it crash or let it run out of battery if it miraculously stays airborne for that long. If it does crash, you need to switch it off and then on again if you want to have another flight - at least it has that safety feature. But here's the biggest reason we ended up ditching it, 9 times out of 10 it wouldn't take off properly. The base has a little metal prong that the pixie's feet lightly slot onto and you are supposed to launch it from there (trying to toggle the power switch then get your hand out of the way before it starts spinning 6 seconds later). Well, ours must be bent ever so slightly because the pixie leans just a few degrees when on the base...and then takes off at an angle, skittering to a swift crash landing before it can even get a foot of height. On the occasion we do get it to launch upward, it is difficult to "direct" in any way because it only senses a hand placed directly underneath it and there are no controls otherwise. It is not long for the air before inevitably banking into a wall. It says "crash resistant" but I wonder how much it can take before damage shows. Then as if to mock us, it began just getting stuck on the base and wouldn't take off at all, sideways or otherwise. It just spun like a noisy mechanical ballerina. I know I'm sounding snarky, but it really was disappointing to have a gift that didn't perform to reasonable expectations straight out of the box. Since we removed and tossed the shrink-wrapped label packaging I'm pretty sure we can't return it so I'm out that purchase plus the cost of finding another gift. And before you assume we were rough with it, my child is several years older than the recommended minimum age and I was also monitoring and assisting as we tried to give it the best chance to succeed - it just wasn't a good product and ultimately I wanted her to have something she could actually enjoy instead of this ill-conceived pseudo-drone. SO, buyer beware. In my opinion, this is a gimmicky fail that has very little reliability or fun factor in actual use.

Cute and fun but kind of dangerous.
The media could not be loaded. My daughter loves this doll. It’s well made and charges quickly. The only down fall is she can only play with it outside because it’ll randomly get out of control and fly into everything quickly and hard. To the point that it’s kind of scary. It’s also difficult to get it to stop. You have to try to grab the legs while it’s spinning and that’s a fight all in itself because the sensor makes it fly even higher every time you try to grab it. The wings also hit you a lot when you try to grab it. My daughter is to afraid to grab it herself because of the wings hitting her. NOT safe to use around tvs or fragile items. One of the wings did break after suddenly running away and flying into the wall and kitchen appliances but it was fixable. I was excited to get this for my daughter because I remember having a similar one as a child and how much I loved it. She was happy to get one. I just feel bad she can’t play with it often because of how dangerous it is to fly in the house. Overall, I probably wouldn’t recommend this doll unless you use it outside or have an empty room to fly it in. It’s very cute but it’s hard to control and when it runs into things it scary and destructive. It can easily damage a tv. Hope this helped.
