You've got a choice between hobby grade and toy grade. I bought my 6-year-old a toy grade one that had good reviews on Amazon. It lasted a few months (three or so charges of the batteries) before a little piece inside the controller broke off and now it won't turn anymore. MFG's service email bounces. Amazon can't even tell me what the warranty details are because the MFG won't respond to them. It was just a poorly designed piece that renders the whole thing useless because you can't buy parts for it.
Hobby grade is more expensive, but you can buy parts. I've heard some of the Traxxas trucks are pretty well built and not super expensive.
