Nerf Elite Dart Rover

[@beretnarf]

"Why didn't you try it inside where it was clearly designed for???" "Stop rolling so fast!" I did try it indoors. It's comparable to the flat outdoor surface I test and, as I mention, it's not completely terrible on an ideal surface. But it still ripped at dart foam and heads. And yes, obviously it works better when you don't fly over ammo but even my rolling wasn't that fast. How can I recommend someone buy this when it isn't reliable at a normal speed?

[@Sunshine-ctg]

Beret indoor does really work any better tbh

[@foodbucketstudios]

...so far, our tried-and-true has been sweeping them with a small broom into a corner, and then "sorting" them with an electric leaf-blower, which flings the broken darts further from the pile of good darts.

[@braydenlucas6428]

Beret ur supposed to go slow

[@leslie_2_k]

I am a Nerf fan and picking the darts up by hand is sometimes tiring (especially at Nerf war birthday parties) so I hope they make a improved version that has a better chance of picking them up in one piece.

Seems like another one of those products that's actually made by a third party and then Hasbro just let them slap the Nerf logo on.

[@beretnarf]

Yup, that would be Jazwares.

[@justajolt]

@@beretnarf Spot on. I went to the London toy fair year before last, and the people on the Jazwares stand were petrified of doing anything Hasbro wouldn't approve of to the point where it was funny!

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

Just hilarious, that intro was great! The Rover... Not as much, but being a KZbinr pertaining to foam stuff myself, I'll give it a go for content reasons. More to warn others to stay away most likely. -Went ahead and shared this on Facebook on my page, with credit to you!

[@notmuch_23]

I think we need a pickup tool that uses _brushes_ instead of hart plastic teeth, and has larger diameter wheels.

[@JEDiTV]

We face the same challenges, and use some of the same tools, when trying to retrieve brass from shooting competitions. Surface makes a big difference on what will work. But, sometimes the best method is just to bend down and hand pick. I don’t think the Dart Rover will help with Brass anymore than it would will with Darts 😉 Thanks for the review Beret. - Jed 🤠

Beret Outstanding review. I wanted this to be awesome. Thanks for the in depth testing. Very well done. Keep up the great work.

[@chickensandwich2193]

I don’t think Nerf is good with anything other than blasters (except a few attachments)

[@Lycius84]

I thought that it looked like it could chew darts and I was right. Great job on Hasbro for releasing something official that will ultimately will make you have to buy more darts.

[@BigfootIsMyDad]

The more darts you shred with the dart rover, the more often you have to buy new darts. Genius marketing, Hasbro.

[@royepic3504]

So nerf just made a lawn mower for darts I think it’s safe to say they’re almost out of ideas

[@azaleafbsb1793]

Who else noticed that one dart in the background that didn't get picked up?

[@Videos4uByme]

sniper 39 ...yep saw that, probably left there for display purposes. 👍

[@96joe]

That’s a bummer. It might work well on AstroTurf but not sure. Reminds me of an old push mower😂. Darn Portland area always gets the new stuff before us Linn County people. 🤷‍♂️😂. Great Video.

[@jm101699]

All jokes aside, I really think that a more efficient version of this device can be made for maybe an additional 10-20 dollars. The idea has so much potential , but it has a very flawed execution. Maybe a larger handle, a closed basket, and a more reliable extraction mechanism would make this product more...useable. Also you have to take into account this cost them like $2 to make.

[@Matt-md5yt]

More like a Dollar

[@jm101699]

1 dollar is just right if you take into account the premium quality injection molded plastic wheels. Rubber would have been too nice for $25 of our hard earned money.

[@foodbucketstudios]

Thank you for testing this! My wife and I were also in Target today checking out the New Stuff, (We run a small Nerf Arena in Salem), and I was thinking this thing was too good to be true.... Oh well. Also a heads-up- Target is selling out of the Blue Version of the Adventure Force Light Command for only $10 ! If you find one, nab it!

[@beretnarf]

I think I might do some more testing with this for curiousity's sake. This definitely could be better for an indoor arena compared to an outdoor field but better doesn't mean it'll be 100% reliable/functional.

[@159asmos]

how much do you guys play before picking up the darts? do they really end up that clustered? you should try 2 or 3 darts, bothering to line it up slightly. this does not need to be perfect. just better than walking 3 ft, bending to pick up 2 or 3 darts, then walking 4 ft and bending over to pick up another 1. the claw might not be faster for a cluster, but when there is only one within reach, you can grab it without stopping to bend over.

[@THECanCErSouLS]

Lol that garden weasel thing looks like one of those dome on wheels thing baby's push around that has balls in it lol

[@ptralx3122]

Yes this brings a smile to my face

[@BrokenLifeCycle]

Have you considered making a collector out of the vacuum end of a leaf blower? Perhaps a tuned cyclone separator as to prevent it from turning the darts into mulch while still removing most other small debris from the darts?

[@buzztheimpaler]

WHen rpg darts come out, Harbor freight has a magnetic floor sweep for $17 that might work on grass

[@elijahjanbanasihan9451]

Hey, I have this at my workplace (it's an indoor Nerf arena). The managers wanted to try it out, and it works indoors -EVA foam flooring. However, it still halts whenever you attempt to pick up even one dart. If you roll it slow enough, it won't spew out the darts/balls on the other side. I have a feeling that it damages darts though since it doesn't feel smooth when collecting.

[@beretnarf]

Yup even when it manages to pick up darts it might damage them in the process. And being forced to dart sweep slowly makes the process more tedious and frustrating.

[@ZombonaMachine]

It might work better if it used stiff bristles instead of plastic tines.

[@jaxon4729]

[@MelodyBurst]

I always wonder how a pooper scooper would word? They normally have two sets of "jaws" that fully inclose on both sides

the type will probably crush the dart, but the rake and dustpan on a stick style might work.
