I ordered this drone for my son to play with, but it's been so much fun to play with that I've hogged it so far! I've only had one other drone before, and it was so difficult to fly that I crashed it into a tree about 10 times on the very first day. This drone has crash, avoidance and was easy for me to fly on the very first try. I broke the no drones in the house rule, and I flew it around with no problem. It has an auto lift function, and I launched it from the kitchen island. It went up to the ceiling but stopped about a foot before it hit. I managed to whack it into the ceiling once when getting used to the controls, but otherwise it was fun to fly around. It is fairly loud so you won't be doing any covert missions with it, but it is a great buy for the price point. I like that I do not have to use my phone and can just use the included screen on the controller. I may buy another one as a gift because it is so easy to use. It comes with extra propellers and an included carrying case, which was a bonus I didn't expect. The only negative I can see was the exposed ribbon for the front camera. It could easy get snagged on something, so hopefully I'll stay out of the trees with this one.
User note: there is a protective film over the two front camera lenses that needs to be removed for clarity. Only one of the films had a pull tab on mine, and the tab broke as soon as I pulled on it. I had to use an X-Acto knife to get under the edge of the film to remove both. It could easily be missed if you're not looking for it.
