Retailer reviews
Summarized retailer review data when available.
Everything is good, everything is great.
Another great product from lego, everything when together and instruction were great to follow.All parts were there, With buying from lego all these years, which is a lot, I had just one time that a piece was missing and they send it right away after I contact them.
Please note, I also didn't look closely, but this price is much too high for what you get.
Bought this for my kids but my husband ended up putting it together (he is in excavation as a trade). The kids and him had so much fun putting it together. We are looking for the remote controlled one now.
disappoints me, too small.
The product is really great, it's quite fun to assemble and once assembled, it looks really good. 100% satisfied. (◠‿◕)
Great toy. It is more difficult to assemble than a regular LEGO set. Therefore, pay attention to the age range. But it is a very good toy, with unique mechanisms and assembly.
Many light effects and a very attractive price.
Great set for this price! The functions work perfectly. My son found it fun to build and also to play with.
It's a nice faucet.
Nice building set for another few hours of building.
Beautiful realistic excavator. Definitely worth the price. As always with LEGO, clear building instructions.
