I was a bit daunted when I realized that I'd have to do quite a bit of soldering, but, by carefully following the instructions in "The Dr. Duino Starter Kit for the Arduino Uno", I was able to assemble all the parts into a working entity. As the parts were sorted into separate clear plastic baggies, I was able to locate and place the parts in their correct locations by following the color photos. I was also able to download the Arduino IDE and download the testing program to verify that the Dr. Duino Board was correctly working with the Arduino Uno. It helped some that I had a little experience with electronic components (e.g., resistors. potentiometers, transistors, capacitors, and LED's) and soldering. I recommend that anyone who buys this product download and read the assembly and testing instructions before starting assembly. Make sure that your parts are in the right locations before soldering (especially the sockets for the Arduino Uno board).

My order arrived in very short order,about a week is all. Everything was packed well and in great condition. I took about 30 minutes to review all the parts and scan through the manual. I followed the directions and was complete in about an hour; very simple to assemble.
I haven't had mine for long at all and have already used the board for some prototyping. I find it very nice to have push buttons, potentiometer's, test points, buzzer, etc. for quick prototyping.
I would definitely recommend the Dr.Duino Shield for anyone interested in learning more about the Arduino UNO micro-controller, prototyping some of your ideas, etc.

Very impressed with the with the Dr. Duino experience. From building the board with its quality components, instructions and test procedure, to using to board for prototyping and learning. The Dr. Duino makes testing new code easy with its may on board components and easy to access test points. Anyone who uses an Arduino Uno will find this board very useful.

I had originally bought the Dr.Duino because of the builtin hardware (potentiometers, LEDs and buttons). It’s great for diving right into many of the example code sketches in the Arduino IDE without having to wire up breadboard. The more I learn, the more useful this tool has become for debugging and expanding my projects. This is one of the most important and useful tools I have on my desk.

Fast Shipping.
Good instruction manual.
All parts shipped as shown.
Going together well.

Item was very well thought out. Instructions for assembly were clear.

Simple enough to build, but the software and hardware works great. Looking to expand the operation to other project but I had trouble adding the Cylon led light bar.

The board is very handy for testing out my ideas without having to wire up switches, LEDs or Pots on a breadboard. Since I'm certain that the wiring is proper, any problems with operation can be attributed to the code. One the code is corrected, I can move on to an actual project in a completed form.

Great kit, easy assembly if instructions are followed, like the access given to important test points. As my education goes along with new shields, boards and programming I know I will have access to the one tool I need to troubleshoot problems with the Arduno.
A great tool that I have not seen anywhere else.
Thank You
Steve D.
Built this to have a programmable controller to play with. Very nice. Looking forward to becoming proficient with it
Dean H.
Does a good job of testing boards.

I was expecting the product to have been already assembled. I enjoyed the assembly process and the instructions were extremely easy to follow. Very impressed overall!!
Robert M.
Really fun to build,and very educational.
Richard C.
Love this thing. Makes prototyping with the Arduino a snap. Very useful.
Mark K.
Every I/O being configurable and all the analogue as well makes this so easy to develop the code. I had mine running on a PH and ORP test rig prototype literally in seconds. Tested the code using the pots then reconfigured by connecting the real life inputs and it worked a treat..I am really pleased with how easy it is to use
Jimmie F.
Excellent product! Easy to construct and very useful in programming checkout for Arduino. Love it!
Ted T.
The board allowed me to explore several of the examples included in the IDE. Many times it was only necessary to make minor pin changes in the example sketch. After getting the sketch operational, I make changes to test and reinforce my understanding.
