Constantly Falls Apart While Building
on August 14, 2026
Posted by: amandable
This was one of the most frustrating LEGO sets I’ve ever built. The petals repeatedly fall off while you’re assembling the flowers, so I spent the entire build stopping to reattach pieces I had already completed. I tried adjusting how I was holding and assembling it, but nothing seemed to prevent it. For such a small, seemingly simple Botanical set, I’m genuinely shocked by how poorly designed the building experience is. This should have been a quick, enjoyable set, but instead it was unnecessarily difficult and aggravating.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

If your set seems like it's not very sturdy, the best thing to do is double-check your build. Sometimes there may be a piece just a little off from where it should be. You’ll also want to make sure that all the pieces are pressed tightly together. Feel free to reach out to us at LEGO.build/Service if you need assistance!
The builds of the two flowers are identical, and the layers of each flower are fundamentally identical. So this set is a bit boring and I'm not sure why we needed to repeat it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to build! Great instructions to follow. Very cute colors and assembly can be done both alone or with a friend! Would definitely recommend this brand as a next purchase.
After building the first box of these gorgeous water lilies I immediately saw the potential for them as a group and bought six more sets. As a larger grouping and a little remixing with multiple sets to get multiple height variations the effect is very pretty.
Like most botanical sets the build is repetitive at times and there’s no play value or minifig because that’s not the point of a botanical sets
As soon as you try to build it you can see the lack of quality. It is extremely hard to place the petals and keep them there. The build itself is average but as soon as you place one petal the rest fall apart. It makes it extremely hard because the whole build is petals. Usually legos are pretty sturdy but I'm afraid to even move them
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you letting us know about this! We can imagine this must be frustrating. First of all, we'd recommend double checking the build and ensuring all the pieces are placed correctly and pressed tightly together. If you're still experiencing the same issue, we'd suggest reaching out to LEGO.build/Service so we can have a closer look at it with you.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I built these while in a zoom meeting and they came out so good. They are easy to put together with the instructions. From a distance they do look like flowers in a vase. I really like the design of each flower and how they were separated into their own bags so didn't feel pressure to make both at the same time.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Lego’s are gorgeous! We have always loved the floral Lego’s as they look amazing and there is no upkeep. These were easy to setup and the details of them are incredible! From the gorgeous duo chrome on the leaves to the little details in the pond. Super easy to pickup and move wherever they will look best that day. Another great and reliable product from Lego!
