This was such an amazing build. I had tons of fun building it and look forward to possibly painting it. The instructions were clear and easy to follow and the parts were of top quality. I would highly recommend these 2 models.

I am legally blind and enjoy the wooden models. they are designed in a way that I can easily build them with little assistance.

I was randomly targeted by Facebook to purchase this product, and for literal weeks I would ignored it. Then one day I was looking for gift ideas, for myself of course, when yet another ad popped up. Finally curious enough, I made my way to their website, because who buys stuff through Facebook am I right? After seeing how many different models they had I had to have one of my own. I sent the link for the Model Marble Run Chain Hoist to my sister and told her it\'s what I wanted for our birthday, we\'re twins you see, and she made it happen. I just spent the most of today putting it together and I\'m having so much fun just watching the marbles do their thing. I can\'t wait to get the next 3 attachments!

I really enjoyed building this car. It took time and was challenging at times but overall the build turned out great. The shipping was quick and packed perfectly, the quality of wood was spot on, and the colored instructions make for an easier-to-follow guide than some of the others I have done in the past. I would highly recommend this product if you are patient and can follow the directions you should be good.

Let me start by saying that this is my first go at this type of model/puzzle and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I ordered several puzzles from different companies at the same time and this one arrived first so the shipping was spot on.I was also impressed with the quality of the pieces, cuts, but most importantly the instructions. I recommend following them to a t and read through all pages before you start. This will get you the tools you need, the knowledge of the components and steps, but may also help you not miss steps like the rubber band around the tires, etc.There are some small parts with this particular model and I broke a few, however, the provided extras allowed me to continue as if nothing happened.I would highly recommend this build to anyone. However it can be challenging so beginners beware but can be accomplished with patience.

Good puzzle works well. Had issue only with putting the chain together.

Years ago I got an Addiator, still one of the best toys to learn addition and subtraction. This is a glorious step up, multiplication, even with squaring of a number.My granddaughter flew through the assembling, taking each part out by herself by slightly bending the entire sheet of strong, laser-cut wood to pop them out. I watched.In the box you get two different projects, one for addition/subtraction, the other for multiplication. A great product, ages 10 up.

I really enjoyed building this. I\'m waiting to get the trailer and bike. Can\'t wait to see what\'s next from UGears.thanks for designing it so well.

This was only the second UGears model I\'ve ever built. The first was the VM-03 Roadster (shown in the picture in green) really had MUCH more complete and clearer instructions. It\'s almost as if they really babied you compared to this build where LOTS of things were left out. They went the extra step of showing you how to cut down the toothpicks and how many you needed etc etc in the Roadster instructions. In this model there really wasn\'t that much of that which was a little disappointing. Also, there were a few times in the instructions where they show a marking of a part for orientation purposes and then in another step the same marking is shown on the other side of the part. Another quibble I have is some parts are shown assembled out of order in different steps, this can be VERY confusing if you haven\'t reviewed the instructions carefully ahead of time. I was honestly quite shocked that at the end of the instruction booklet, where they show the functions, there was no mention of the hood opening with latch, or high and low speeds. I guess you\'re just supposed to know or figure it out??As you can see, I fully detailed my model inside and out. For areas that move I used Sharpie markers. But let me warn you, only black and metallic sharpies adequately cover the burned edges of the wood. I used wood stain for the floor of the cabin and the interior walls. Portions of the model that can be thickened like the entire outside and, for example the inside of the doors I used acrylic paint. I painted my model to look like Optimus Prime from the live action Transformers Movie! I did spend considerable amount of time detailing the interior only to realize once the model is assembled it\'s VERY difficult to see inside, glad I took lots of pics during assembly. That means that you probably don\'t have to be as meticulous as me since it won\'t be visible. I did add a fabric and pillow to the bed and light to the interior to help you see in there a little bit better.

This was the only part I broke while working on the next step, since this is a LARGE lever arm and sticks waaaay out! -The wheel locking nuts are the most difficult part to assemble and you should use some wax, sand a bit if they are super tight and lastly, don\'t forget to support the axle when installing -As you can see, these models CAN be painted but be careful to only paint areas that won\'t be moving as this adds thickness to the partSee my video with my truck in action here: https://youtu.be/Wt7ktLhwhKk

This was my first UGears model, but it won’t be my last I’m hooked! The steampunk clock was easy and fun, and I love the finished product. Looking forward to a more challenging puzzle for my next attempt. If I could only decide which to choose!

It was more fun than I thought it would be to build. The sounds is ok, it will hold a G for a few days, and is easy to tune with a phone APP. Yes, I know it does not sound like a $1000 Hurdy Gurdy. I used Sharpie\'s for the color, very easy to do with no drying time needed. For waxing as shown in the instruction\'s, I used a Glade scented candle, it is softer and easier to work with than the included hard wax. I sanded most of the edges and darkened them with a brown Sharpie. No parts broke during assembly. This was for my wife, she already plays several instruments. I enjoyed building and playing it so much, I ordered a second one for myself. My best tip would be to read the instruction several times before starting.
