Description
Quick Facts:
Includes FREE ROK Star Controller; new technology controls every machine with a single controller.
Most popular Rokenbok machine has 4 motors for driving, sweeping, lifting tank, and dumping.
Parents love to play too!
Rokenbok is winner of over 50 awards for Fun and Education.
Modular, works with all Rokenbok machines and building sets.
The Power Sweeper is Rokenbok’s most popular vehicle. We added a free ROK Star Controller to make a special Value Pack. . . a great way to start your Rokenbok experience. Whether this is your first Rokenbok purchase, or your adding a vehicle to a growing Rokenbok world, this Power Sweeper Value Pack is a great choice and a great deal too!
The Power Sweeper is an interactive play powerhouse thanks to four separate motors and a multitude of functions. Move the power sweeper left and right, back and forward, even spin it on its own axis. Then, with the powered roller in the nose, suck up ROKs or pump them out with the touch of a button on the included ROK Star Controller. Press another button and the Power Sweeper tank rises into the air so you can pump balls into another vehicle or a Motorized Conveyor. Or, open the tailgate remotely to dump ROKs from the bed. There’s even an automatic trailer hitch, horn, and back-up warning!
What has two microprocessors, multiple gear trains, four motors, and can hold up to 40 ROKs? The Rokenbok Power Sweeper, of course! Rokenbok remote control machines are tough, real working equipment. They are built for rough play, crashes, and spills. This is not an ordinary toy street sweeper, but a precise and very rugged ROK Star controlled robot. ROK Star machines 
are smart too. They won’t interfere with each other so that you can add as many ROK Star machines and controllers as you want to your Rokenbok world.
Requires 6 AA batteries (not included).
What's In The Box
Rok Star Technology
ROK Star is a completely wireless, light-based, multi-player, multi-vehicle remote control system. This new control system allows an unlimited number of controllers to talk to an unlimited number of Rokenbok machines simultaneously. Key to ROK Star technology are high-speed data bursts transmitted by infrared light. It's this unique new data transmission architecture that allows multiple controllers to be used at the same time.
The ROK Star controller uses a combination of visible and infrared light to select a vehicle and give it a unique address. Once the ROK Star Controller selects a vehicle to control, the controller and vehicle are paired and the vehicle will ignore data transmitted by all other controllers. It's like cupping your hands over your mouth and yelling "Hey you!" to a playmate across a crowded playground.
Another key issue is the interference from fluorescent lights that often raises havoc with infrared based control systems. A unique optical filtering system was designed that rejects overhead interference from florescent lighting while allowing the high-speed data bursts from the ROK Star controllers to pass into vehicle receivers unimpeded.
The result is well designed, premium quality remote control toys that are both fun and highly functional. The new ROK Star design is more intuitive than Rokenbok's retiring RF based system, and most users will have it up and running right away, without the need to even reference instructions. Just point a controller at a vehicle and press the select button, now you are in control! No switches to set, no addresses to remember - just point, click and it works.
You can find the ROK Star Controller in the ROK Works and Get ROK'n action sets, the Power Sweeper Value Pack, and sold separately.
Common Questions
Q- How does the Sweeper pick-up ROKs (balls)?
A- A foam roller in the nose of the sweep traps ROKs and pushes them up into the storage tank.
Q- How do you get ROKs into the bed of the Sweeper?
A- ROKs overflow into the bed once the storage tank is full.
Q- Why does the Sweeper have four motors?
A- One for the right side wheels, one for the left side wheels, one to raise and lower the sweep/dump-bed, and one to power the Sweeper’s roller.
Q- How do you unload the Sweeper?
A- Reversing the direction of the roller pumps ROKs out of the Sweeper tank, and the tailgate opens to let ROKs roll out when the Sweep/dump-bed is in its fully raised position.
Q- Why do you rate this vehicle for children 6+, vs. preschool remote control like the Dump Truck?
A- To sweep up ROKs, you have to drive forward and activate the sweep mechanism simultaneously. This requires holding down two buttons on the remote control at the same time. Of course, many four and five-year-olds can do this, but that's why we gave it the Full Featured rating.

FUN FUN FUN
1. Just read the other reviews to learn about how cool this vehicle is. The other reviewers have said it all.
2. Addition: the controller is a great size for my 4 year old's hands. It works wonderfully: simple and responsive.
Power Sweeper Value Pack
This is the most amazing product I have ever seen. My grandson was so excited when I told him I had ordered the Power Sweeper. He has watched it many times on the computer but when it arrived, it was like it was Christmas. It is so well made and so easy for a 6 year old autistic ADHD child to handle. He figured it out all by himself. What is so cool is that it dumps from the back and also from the front. What a cleaver idea. He loves to watch the bed of the sweeper fill up with balls. I am amazed that this is such a well built machine and I don't really see anything on it that a kid could break. Your products are amazing and this Sweeper is a hit and recommend it for all kids and adults.
My 7 year old grandson loves
My 7 year old grandson loves it! We have many of the "old style" vehicles with cords, etc. Since I am retired and on a fixed income, I can't possibly replace them with the new models. But I would work out a way to finance a comprehensive "converter package" so they could all be used together, if such a thing were available. Any possibility of that?
Power Sweeper
When upgrading to the Rokstar system we thought the Power Sweeper would be a great place to start. The working taillights are a favorite in our house, and the added siren and horn on the Rokstar controllers are a new favorite. The warehouse set the RC Forklift comes in is also very popular. Overall our experience with the new Power Sweeper and Warehouse have been fantastic. As always the quality of all components is outstanding as well. We love the Power Sweeper and the new Rokstar system!!
This toy is a great companion to other sets
We purchased this toy as a companion to one of the Complete Action Sets. We find that cleanup is no longer a chore, but is instead another opportunity to learn hand-eye coordination and become rok-stars on our controllers. Thanks RokenBok!!!
The Power Sweeper Roks!!
My 4 and 6 year old love Rokenbok.
This Sweeper makes "cleanup" so easy and fun. My kids love "running over and sucking up" the balls. My kids do not realize they are even helping clean up. Additionally, they do not realize they are learning while playing with their Rokenbok set. Their parents love watching them play together - using teamwork, imagination, technical skills, etc. It is soooo much better than TV and video games :)
Great new power sweeper
My 6 yr.old son loves this new sweeper with the ROK Star Controller. This sweeper handles with ease and operates very smoothly. It is a great addition to any Rokenbok set.
Christine, the Rokenbok rep., was very helpful and accommodating to me in finding just what I needed.
I love Rokenbok. It provides my son with endless hours of enjoyment.
Thanks you,
Jennifer
So Much Fun for EVERYONE!
These Rokenbok vehicles are the best and what I LOVE about this set is that the Rok Star Controller is included! We have four boys ages 9, 7, 7, and 2 and they all love Rokenboks. With the Rok Star Controller, nobody ever feels left out because you can use more than one and they do not interfere with each other! They make it so easy to include everyone in the fun! We like having races with the Power Sweeper and the Dump Truck to pick up all sorts of balls! Also, I am a teacher and really feel like the Rokenbok toys are educational, as well as, fun! I love watching my boys design different buildings of their own in addition to the buildings that the sets are designed for. At first I thought that the Rokenboks would only be for my older children, but I was proven wrong. My 2-year-old likes the Power Sweeper just as much as the 9-year-old. Oh, and did I mention their father? I cannot get my husband away from these things. He has so much fun playing with the boys!
Rokenboking for over 13 years!
"I originally bought several Rokenbok sets in 1997 for my youngest son, then age 6. The sets were used on a daily basis by all three of my sons and many of their friends and my husband and I were impressed with the quality of the building materials and vehicles. Eventually the sets were packed up until I recently got everything out for my 4 year old granddaughter and ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING worked perfectly. My oldest son, now 31, and his daughter had a great time with the old sets and my recent order is a Christmas present so they can expand and update. I thought the starter set would allow my granddaughter to work independently while my son sets up the more complex pieces. He was thrilled to see the Rokenbok again and has to agree to share with his two brothers when they visit. Your products are excellent. . . Now that I've found the website, which I have shared with my sons, we will continue to order additional sets.
Thank you for your innovation and attention to quality,"

Favorite vehicle
My son and I love this vehicle. It picks up balls on virtually any surface, giving the driver an important job and making it an ideal addition to our Rokenbok "fleet". The Sweeper is tremendously feature rich, which is great for keeping children interested and even Dad. Furthermore the new remote enables really quick and easy switching between vehicles, plus a whole new set of additional features such as horns, backup sounds, and tracking adjustment. This is a great toy and I highly recommend it.
Great addition!
We wanted to try out the new Rokenbok Rokstar systems so we purchased a new ROK Works and this. Rokenbok makes the best real working machines. The Power Sweeper is amazing and my kids and their cousins all fawn after it. And since it's combined with the new Rokstar controller it's a great value too.
