I love the Lego trees! This was a little complicated to build but it was super fun. I did get upset when I lost a piece but who doesn’t! I love the colors of the pot and the gold detailing. I am planning on sometime changing the color of the leaves to purple or pink. I definitely think you can customize the leaves and the other deatailings with other things. I think the set is good on its own though. 👍🏻
This was a very fun piece to build, and a fun display set. The biggest problem I encountered was that there were too many areas where sections were attached by only one connection point - single block attachment. This often made it difficult to build future levels without dislodging the previous “single” construction foundation point.
Younger builders would probably laugh at some of my disaster moments 😂
Poor directions. Could not get past bag 2. Poorly defined picture of where front branch should go.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have many LEGO sets, and this was one of my least favorite builds. I found the directions hard to follow. In some other sets, the already built pieces are greyed out so that you can see where the new pieces should be added.
Once completed, I thought the set was cute, though it took me a couple of sessions to finish because I put it down. Finally, I did not have all of the pieces in the box, which added to the frustration. I ended up raiding my stash to complete it.
I first saw this at a bubble tea store and immediately fell in love with it. I finally got one of my own. I like the asian culture mixed with nature. Hopefully it will work for me (see product details on the story of the money tree lol).
