I’m hesitating between Vex Go and Lego Education Spike for my 7 years old son who’s interested in robotics.

Vex has a good organization system which is a big plus, but Lego looks like it has more cool things you can do with it.

I wanted to compare what customers thought but I have trouble finding indormation so I’m turning to you. Anyone has had experience with these products or any other?

Thank you

As a kid I had Lego Mindstorms and I liked how it was able to interface with other Lego parts. I did find it kinda hard to program, but the Mindstorms coding was based on LabView, and it looks like both of these have coding options based on Scratch, which is how I first learned to code and would 100% recommend.

Idk much about the new Spike thing but if you have or would consider buying more legos I’d go for that one just for the extensibility.
