Our Review
After integrating the Smart Home IoT Starter Kit QE005 with ArduinoACECode(Scratch) & Micro:BitBoard Included for Hands-On Programming, Sensors & Home Automation Projects for Learners into several test builds, we found it to be a capable component for the price. Key specs include Frame Material: Acrylic laser-cut, Dimensions: 200x150x100mm, Weight: 800g.
Assembly took about 2 hours following the included instructions. The fit and finish of the parts was acceptable — minor filing needed on a couple of pieces.
The platform provides a solid foundation for learning. We mounted an Arduino Uno, ultrasonic sensor, and motor driver without running out of mounting real estate. The acrylic frame is lightweight and easy to drill for custom mounts.
For the price point, the Smart Home IoT Starter Kit QE005 with ArduinoACECode(Scratch) & Micro:BitBoard Included for Hands-On Programming, Sensors & Home Automation Projects for Learners delivers what you need without unnecessary complexity. Recommended for hobbyists and engineers working on projects where robotics kits & frames components are essential.
What We Like
- Modular design allows reconfiguration for different projects

- All mechanical hardware (nuts, bolts, spacers) included
- Detailed assembly instructions included
Watch Out For
- Wire routing is tight in compact chassis designs
- Assembly instructions could be more detailed
- Screws and standoffs are metric — imperial tools will not fit
