WORST BUILD EVER
on March 23, 2024
Posted by: DameSeriousSpyder104
Everything is flimsy, instructions are poorly designed, you can't distinguished light brown from dark brown. Some steps are poorly thought. Hours of stress, I am finishing it just to say it was finished but I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS SET TO ANYONE. Looks nice, but it is not.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This treehouse was a wonderful fun build. I enjoyed every minute. It makes a wonderful decoration in our fifth-wheel.

Cool, difficult, and weird??

A little late to the build. It's a cool set, but it is a little more difficult to build. I don't know why Lego highlights pieces in just some instructions. They highlight in some instructions, but not others.
But the "hidden" scissors, that's the weird part.

Thank you for your review of the Tree House set.
It's time for a fun fact! Did you know that the pair of hidden scissors are a nod to the designer whose day job (when he's not designing awesome LEGO Ideas sets) is a hairdresser! So the scissors found their way into the final 'cut' of the Tree House design!

Another benchmark set
on December 21, 2023
Posted by: TheHutchMaster
Along with the Blacksmiths Shop, Assembly Square, and Lion Knight's Castle, this is one of those sets that stands as a benchmark for me - representing the pinnacle of what modern Lego is capable of.
As a finished display piece, the Tree House is just spectacular. It's got a visual "heft" that allows it to make such a great impression on the shelf, without being so enormous that it takes up too much space.
Sure, if you really look at it, some of the scale is a bit odd (the leaf canopy is not quite right in proportion to the cabins and the rest of the tree). But even though this set is a "real-life" scene, I think people complaining about problems of scale and proportion are - if you'll forgive me - missing the forest for the tree (house).
This set, to me, isn't meant to be a perfect replica: it's meant to be perfectly evocative. It FEELS right. It evokes, for me, a fantastic sort of nostalgia for a setting like this.
All the little details packed into the cabins, the incredibly fun staircase and walkway build techniques, the tremendous care and attention that went into the scenery around the base, adds up to a set that is nothing short of magnificent.
This is Lego at its best. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Amazing and creative set!
on August 20, 2023
Posted by: Izzy
This Lego set is so creative and includes so many details! My husband and I took turns completing steps. Overall, with “tagging” each other in, snack and bathroom breaks, and assembling at a leisurely pace while watching cheesy movies, this set took around 14 total hours to build. We both made a few mistakes which took some time to correct, but I would allow around 10 hours of build time if you are planning on getting this set. There are so many different ways to display the fun family. We decided to use both leaves sets to match the changing colors of the trees on the A-frame set. I couldn’t be happier with how this turned out!! It was a fun build, but there are parts that are difficult to assemble and other parts that require a more delicate touch… wouldn’t recommend for little children (which is explained by the 16+ on the box). The build is not as ‘clean’ as the A-frame, but it is a treehouse and we all know a true treehouse has its quirks. Love that the studs are bare to help with a rough tree bark look. Don’t hesitate to purchase this, especially if you already have, or plan to get the A-frame. The two sets create an ideal vacation setting!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Cannot express how awesome and fun this build was the creativity in how the tree goes together is great. The lego family fits right in all the little cabins. The details like the toilet and shower and telescope and crane and little treasure map are so cool.!! Great job again lego enginerers!! Loved it!!!!!
