Retailer reviews
Summarized retailer review data when available.
First, I bought this as a LEGO Technic set and I'm already hooked. It's really fun to try out.
Fun experience building the faucet, almost finished.
Easy to put together and with the lighting set, it looks really cool.
nice product
I specifically chose this set because it focuses purely on the technical aspects. There are no motors or app-based controls, so it guarantees hours of fun. The technical aspects are clearly visible, and the "engine cover" with all the pneumatic hoses underneath is removable. A few hours of building enjoyment. The downside of the pneumatic functions is that they are not as precise, but practice makes perfect. Another downside is that the crane has a large turning radius – dual control would have been better and could have been easily implemented (even retrofitted). My 5-year-old son finds it fantastic to play with and can easily handle it.
This is a suitable gift for someone who is good at technical work, but also wants to be challenged.
