Ridiculously repetitive.
on January 10, 2023
Posted by: MagicalPeacock049
I have built dozens of sets including large ones like the Coliseum and the Titanic. I have seen repetitive, and I have seen refreshing, this is the former and then some. Each separate leg is comprised of four separate parts, you can build two parts per bag. There are eight legs in the first two portions, then four more smaller "legs" up top with another four support beams with detail going down the middle. I'm going to let you do the math on that one, but the point is the vast majority of this build is the exact same thing over and over again. I absolutely love Lego and I will continue to purchase more. But I have never had a set this large and repetitive. Some don't care and simply build for the final result but for me the build is the biggest part, and I have put this one down more times than I can count and debated stopping. Which is something I have NEVER done before. I've taken breaks, but I have never debated scraping a build. Breaks your spirit to spend an hour or two or more building just legs and finally build a platform and really get excited thinking it's about to get new and fun just to be hit with a multitude more bags and instructions to build the same legs you just finished building for hours. After the fact, this may be the only set I have ever wanted to stop building.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not good
on April 11, 2023
Posted by: SamSamBinks
Very unstable and time consuming. This sets just not very stable and is poorly constructed. Contemplating torturing myself and fixing the broken arches or just quitting this set all together. I bought hundreds of lego sets in my lifetime and this is by far the most unstable and boring build I've ever done. Don't get this set

Boring

Do you repeat the same job over and over and over? The four sides going up and the crossmembers go on forever. You know it will be boring once you get past the grade level.

INCREDIBLE LEGO SET!
on May 21, 2024
Posted by: boguette
I got this awesome LEGO set in late 2022, but I'm just now writing a review about this set. It's, incredible. Whilst the only reasonable usage for this set is to just observe the vast amount of detail across different parts of the tower, you WILL feel amazed and shocked in disbelief at how you were able to build a masterpiece! Some old reviews stated that it was very difficult to build this LEGO set, and that this should have come with glue, and I disagree. Why? well simply put, the building process is extremely repetitive; you have to make 'X' shaped metal beams on all four sides of just one column out of 4, and they are very fragile. You must place blocks very firmly on the base so that they won't collapse. LEGOs won't stick for you, you have to have extra careful hands. Yes, the arches are extremely fragile and break apart easily when the tower is shaken, but the main first part of the Eiffel Tower is very solid.
I suggest that if you believe that you have enough time to build this set and know that this set is RIGHT for you (remember it is difficult to build with LEGOs just because LEGOs has a representation of being a "children's" toy), then it is worth the money. Other than that, then you're better off buying something easier and simpler like the Concorde or the Titanic (which I also have and is very easy).

Worst build I have ever done
on February 7, 2023
Posted by: Mrs.GleefulMule
Not enough support for various pieces, just looking at them causes them to fall apart. Have been working on this off and on for 6 weeks and haven't gotten through box 2. Am going to put it away and maybe come back to it some day.

Don’t buy this product
on June 12, 2024
Posted by: DirectorTrustyWalrus103
I’ve had was to many pieces missing that I’ve had to order. And some parts are literally impossible to fit. Step 541 literally does not fit into the piece I’ve tried for over and hour in every which way and it’s just too big of a hassle for the money! SO SAVE YOURS AND DONT BUT IT!!!!!!!!!!
