LOVED IT

I loved all the details in the house it was super fun to build and it’s also one of my favorite movies. It took me from 10:38pm- 1:18am (but I am a very distracted person) I really recommend this if you enjoy the movie and have a hour or two to spare!
Very classic Disney house build that has some great figures. Considering buying 2 to complete the house, but trying to figure out a hinge system to open and close the house. Other than that, the house looks amazing on the shelf.
Was a wonderful build for a Disney and Pixar fan! The detail in the inside of the house was amazing. Only downfall was I wish it was a little bigger !!
Up is my favorite Pixar movie. Great storytelling. The relationships Carl has with Ellie and Russell are beautifully told. But the house is too small. The key room is the living room with the bay window and Carl and Ellie’s chairs. But the living room in the Lego house is just big enough for Carl’s chair. I wish they had made the house big enough to do justice to that room and then fill out the rest of the house based the size of that room. I knew what to expect from the photos. I guess the kit is more for kids than adults.
It's a solid set from a great movie, but there are so many details missing that just make it feel off. The biggest one is obviously the absence of Kevin, but there are plenty of others. The lack of Ellie's chair, and even the lack of a print (or even a sticker) for the mailbox in front and the wrong color for the bottom of Carl's cane (really could've made it represent the tennis balls better) feel like relatively simple fixes that would've made the set that much more. But like I said, it is still a pretty solid representation of a fantastic movie.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We’re glad to see you liked the "Up" House set, and love hearing how much you enjoyed building it. Looks like we could’ve done more to turn it from awesome to super awesome! Thanks for letting us know what would make your LEGO® experience even better.
We have completed many Lego’s, all of which have excellent. I was very excited to begin the Up House only to discovery it was very fragile and did not offer the expert cohesiveness I am accostomed to with Lego products. It did not assemble easily, hold the build, and maintain its form over time. In addition, whenever anyone touched it, it actually fell apart in their hands. I love the Lego products and I am just sick about it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

So my daughter picked this out for me for my birthday because I love the movie! Also, I love this set!!!! It’s so cute! Love the details! I feel Lego missed one very important sticker!!!!! A mailbox sticker with Carl & Ellie next to their handprints! I made my own image on sticker paper and put it on the tiny mailbox and now it’s perfect!
I would recommend this to a friend!

We’re super happy you enjoyed building the UP House set for your birthday. It looks like we could’ve done more to turn it from awesome to super awesome! Thanks for letting us know what would make your LEGO® experience even more magical.
I hate to say it too, but it's true. With so many options and tiny details in certain areas, they really missed some key items. I would have LOVED to see a sticker for the mailbox. Having just the hand prints would have really made that part of the build seem like it belonged. Right now it feels out of place and forced as part of the set. By adding a hand print sticker and removing the random balloons on the gate, it would have pushed this build a bit further. Besides that, I expected a bit more house for the amount of money, but I guess that's just a common saying in this economy.
