My granddaughter, who is eleven, loves to build Lego. She has tackled some of the most challenging models. The Grand Piano and Super Mario 64 Question Mark Block were probably the most challenging for her, but she sails through them. She can even watch her Ipad while doing the Tower. She is pretty amazing.

Frustrating yet rewarding

Verified Purchase:No
Bought it as a project for my daughter and myself. The repetitive steps kinda wore on us almost as much as the missing pieces, but we were able to scrounge a few up. I highly recommend this to any collector.
It's not worth the money, it's always coming apart. It's not well designed, it's not strong. You can buy better with your money. It's not worth the money or time to build it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We're sorry you're having trouble keeping your Eiffel tower set together. If you'd like a hand troubleshooting or if you find that any specific pieces aren't staying put like they should, please reach out at LEGO.build/Service-BV so we can help.
The Eiffel Tower sucks!!! I hate it! Once you get the parts together they fall apart when attaching them together! I’ve never had so many problems with a set before like this one! The legs won’t even stay attached! Worst Lego set ever!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Missing pieces...
on May 14, 2023
Posted by: JMDENVER
Hard to review with 3 missing pieces now, many bags apart. I'm not having the difficulty with fragility that others have mentioned. However, a missing piece here, which I grabbed from the next bag, then another missing piece which I had no way around led me to go from the midsection to the top hoping I could finish that while waiting for replacements. Didn't get far and yet another missing piece! No way to move on from here, now waiting 7-10 days with my table cluttered and no room to work on my other sets. (also waiting pieces but should be here soon) Unlike the other huge sets I've recently completed - Titanic and Colosseum the "extra" pieces in this set are almost non-existant. That would be fine if they actually shipped with all the needed pieces, but usually a missing piece here and there could be made up from the MANY DOZEN extras in the other sets. No such luck here. (particularly aggravating when the missing pieces are those that number in the hundreds - and not a single extra to be found) As is, with the missing pieces among several bags (so far!) at different levels of construction --- sorry, I can't leave more than a 2. (Lego needs to step up replacement brick speed - if I could get them in 3 or 4 as opposed to 7-10 days it would make a world of difference) And no they don't ship all the way from Denmark ---- not sure why that is the constant reply to missing pieces. (and if they did well that is a disaster of a way to stock pieces when I'd guess the overwhelming majority of customers are in the US)

Well engineered

This set is well engineered and wonderfully put together, you assemble the tower just as the real one was assembled. At times this set can be repetitive, but once you put the final piece on and see the end result it’s all worth it. It would be a great team build as well.

Poor structure
on February 11, 2023
Posted by: SupersonicSwitch070
I loved building this piece, and once done it was really nice to look at. But once I tried transporting it (in 4 pieces) the bottom two pieces would crumble over and over again. I cannot get it back to “normal” without dropping or breaking pieces. Kinda upsetting for how expensive it was…I’m scared to transport it again for fear of losing pieces.
