Way to much fun for my opinion

This is not for children. Remember when you were a kid and built model planes and cars? Well here we go again. After building this (it took,on and off, about 2 weeks) I bought the motorcycle, and the Train Engine came in the mail today. These puzzles will this old mans brain synapses sparking for some time.

Pros
  • My friend seems to like it. I got it as a Christmas gift for somebody. It keeps a Lego fan interested
Cons
  • Not suitable for children under 14 years old

Cons
  • Could be difficult to fix if it breaks

one of the parts is cracked on the board. and I had to use wood glue to do a diy repair, which hurts the complete look.took 2 stars off for that

need better instructions

I 've been building kits for years. It was stated that it goes together, stays. I used a glue gun to keep it together.I love building kits, but I could not figure how to complete, so I'm sending it back. Did anyone build this kit?i'm still going to buy other kits that go together with good instructions. (Drawing don't show how to build kit.Needs work instruction and drawing wise. Thank your kits, which most look like fun.

Pros
  • Develops your problem-solving abilities
Cons
  • Might not be suitable for individuals with allergies to wood

Not exactly EASY to assemble, but challenging and fun

I think its funny that one of the features the review asks you to rate is "easy to assemble". I purchased this because it is precisely not easy to assemble, but is very challenging. I enjoyed every second of it! I put it together a little at a time and it took about a week. I didn't want to try all at one time because I wanted to enjoy it and take my time. I tasked my 5-year old with helping me find and hand me certain pieces, although in general this is definitely not suitable for a child…

Pros
  • Great project to do with kids
Cons
  • Could be unstable if not assembled correctly

Beautiful, quality made kit

I bought this for my grandson for Christmas, but when I received delivery of it, it was so beautiful and looked like so much fun to build that I may have to order one for myself. It is not a project for a young child however, fairly complicated.

Pros
  • I had the most fun with this one and it goes fast like one would expect. Highly recommend.
Cons
  • Some parts may be missing in the kit

A treasure to keep.

I purchased this for my 88 year old father to occupy his time during the cold winter days; actually, this train was his 3D wooden puzzle. He absolutely loved putting each one of them together. I’ll treasure them always. Now, to select the next one.

Pros
  • Brings a sense of enjoyment and fun to your day-to-day life
Cons
  • May not be suitable for individuals with a history of anxiety

Bought this for my 10 year old son. He has been able to follow the directions and assemble with little difficulty. He is really enjoying the project and very proud of his accomplishment. Was well worth the money!

Pros
  • This is so neat! It is a lot of fun to put together but it does take time. Very cool and I love it!
Cons
  • Might require special tools to assemble

Great for a former mechanical engineer!

Father in law who was avid train buff loved the model. Very sturdy, he loved that he had to think while putting it together as it was a very meticulous build.

Pros
  • Helps you keep track of time in a unique way
Cons
  • Could be too noisy if used as a functioning clock

I love these wooden 3D puzzles

This puzzle is one of my favorites but it was a bit more challenging than some others. I love that it actually plays a short silent film clip by generating enough electricity to power a small light diode. Very beautiful when complete.

Pros
  • Strengthens your attention to detail
Cons
  • May require additional maintenance to keep functioning as a clock

Great project if you like model trains

If you want a project this is one for you. I gave it to my dad for Christmas he loves model airplanes and trains and said this is one of a kind, it's pretty easy to get pieces out you make your own tools. It's a bit on the frustrating side if you dont have patience to build

Pros
  • Helps you relax and de-stress
Cons
  • Might require a lot of trial and error during assembly

Pros
  • Enhances your fine motor skills
Cons
  • Could be difficult to assemble without a good workspace

Up up and away - my new review

This is a wonderful project! It comes with excellent instructions and is challenging enough to make it fun. Take your time, sand the rough edges and this project will run smoothly once finished. Great for the entire family, helps to teach children how to follow directions and how they can use their hands to build something they will be proud of once completed. Recommend this project and all Robotime projects.

Pros
  • ROBOTIME
Cons
  • Could be difficult to assemble for people with vision impairments
