Review: WRP2 is a must for students - This was hard for me to grasp since I am tech illiterate. But my 6 year old niece who is a voracious reader, mastered it in short order. She uses it to read books above her grade level and get definitions on unfamiliar words. A great idea!
Review: The concept was sounded good. - This pen didn't always work the way it was supposed to. Sometimes get the word and sometimes it didn't the voice was low. I didn't find this pen helpful at all. The concept was sounded good.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ WRP2 is a must for students
*by R***. on June 29, 2016*

This was hard for me to grasp since I am tech illiterate. But my 6 year old niece who is a voracious reader, mastered it in short order. She uses it to read books above her grade level and get definitions on unfamiliar words. A great idea!

### ⭐⭐ The concept was sounded good.
*by J***E on January 25, 2018*

This pen didn't always work the way it was supposed to. Sometimes get the word and sometimes it didn't the voice was low. I didn't find this pen helpful at all. The concept was sounded good.

### ⭐ Of no value for needs necessary.
*by A***E on December 7, 2011*

This item purchased for a person who is about to lose their spouse to illness and can't read. Family is so worried about how he will cope. Researched this item and gave it a chance. However, if one can't read very well, and doesn't have someone with them to help with the instructions - or error problems - it's useless. So many menu's to navigate that one needs to read - it defeats value of products intention. As a translator - it may work better - but not as a reader. In addition it only reads the words correctly approx. 60 - 70% of the time. So disappointed - we had to send back. It may have older uses - but not as a reader for those with difficulties. Amazon was outstanding with the return.
