There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
This was the biggest let down as a surprise for our child. The parts are very loose and do not fit snugly or tightly in the place. Making it very difficult to assemble anything in my pictures or just for fun.
It's almost as if they paid to have the molds for the parts and realize they fit to loose and did not go back and fix it.
As another review were stated, these legs and parts should Snap together like legos or at least very snug.
Understand that this is only about a seventeen dollars set as I write this review but it's about seventeen dollars worth of just frustration like the amount of enjoyment is next to none.
And to think this is supposed to be an engineering set and in and of itself wasn't engineered properly.
It may not be a cost-effective to do so, and at least they're gonna recoup some of their money. But this is not a representation of what i've found this company to have for quality products.
Update:
It seems that some of the builds can be rather stable. It just depends on which builds, the bridge build did not do well. The straight 4 legged towers are actually pretty stable.

Mon enfant connaissait déjà car le jeu est présent en classe (raté pour la surprise...)
Points négatifs : les cartes de jeu sont en anglais (traduction dans la notice d'emploi) et je n'ai pas réussi à trouver où coller tous les autocollants...
