Good sensitivity
Works well after calibration. Had to adjust the distance slightly but overall a solid module.

Great value
Bought five for my car project. All of them were consistent in performance. Highly recommend for beginners.

Range is short
Good for close range only. Make sure your robot chassis is low enough for this sensor to work effectively.
