This was an amazing set! I give the Lego designers a ton of credit for making such an incredible replica of Van Gogh’s sunflowers. It is a sizable set and looks good hanging on the wall. Was so much fun to build. I also have the Lego Van Gogh’s Starry Night and this set is much bigger.
this was my first abstract Lego build. I really enjoyed it other than my 50 year old eyes had trouble discerning between some colored pieces in the manual. Very cool though I'd do it again and am getting the Milky Way next.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Structure is not sound

I have two other lego art sets, and I was impressed with the way they were structured. I wish I could say the same with this one. The backing where the panels are placed is not stable or sturdy, and has led to my set breaking several times because the support system cannot handle the weight of the actual “painting”. I know LEGO is capable of making sets that can structurally handle themselves, but for some reason that knowledge was not applied to this one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Oh no! We're sorry to hear and see your Vincent van Gogh – Sunflowers set has fallen. From what you’ve described, a little rebuilding might be in order. You’ll want to make sure that each part is in the exact position shown in the instructions and that everything’s pressed together tightly. You should have much better results! We're always available at LEGO.build/Service-BV if you'd like assistance!

A Beautiful Build

Wow! My husband preordered this for me as my first LEGO kit since we have seen this painting in person and are trying to add more art to our walls at home. I couldn’t be happier with the whole experience.
As a first time builder, I found the paper manual and the builder app very clear and easy to follow. My whole build was finished the same day it was delivered, and is already proudly displayed on our wall.
I also really appreciate that the podcast that went along with the kit that gave some great background about Van Gogh. The fact that the extension of the painting was intentionally incorporated into the build experience was one of my favorite parts.
I would highly recommend this kit and will definitely be back to buy other kits in the future!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Rewarding

Being a beginner to lego and who had only built the 800 piece roses build I saw this and immediately wanted to give it a try. It wasn't difficult at all and was extremely satisfying to put together. Actually looking forward to try more now!
I was so excited for this build but the connections between the plates kept falling off as we added new pieces. It was super frustrating. The end build was beautiful but it was the worst art build we’ve ever done.
Anyone else having issue getting the back framing to stay stuck? I was four bags away from finishing this evening when I started to restabilize the back and the entire thing collapsed on itself. Beyond many hours lost I’m not sure I can get it to be stable to hold all the weight when I rebuild. Has anyone else had this issue? Never experienced this with the great wave. The brown cross bars never stay stuck in the back panels and then the circles don’t stay to the brown bar lego and it just devolves.
