Nightmare to Put together
on June 24, 2026
Posted by: DameBigheartedShoes102
Thought it would be cute and it was. But when I would try to put parts together, other parts would fall apart. This happened constantly. Worse than a knock-off! I had to replace a couple of pieces, too. Sorry to have to report this. Definitely for show only—IFF you can keep it together.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We're sorry to hear your build experience was so frustrating. We know how disappointing it is when pieces won't stay together as expected. If you'd like help troubleshooting or if any parts aren't fitting or holding properly, please reach out to us at LEGO.build/Service and we'll be happy to assist.
I watched and waited for months to buy/build this set. Snoopy is cute and was fun to build. The house is so fragile I'm afraid to move it. I expected a sturdier and more complete build for a set of this price and skill level. But as a Snoopy fan, I would buy it again just for him.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We're glad Snoopy made the set worth it! If the doghouse feels a little fragile, we'd recommend double-checking the build, as sometimes a piece may be slightly out of place or need an extra press. If you need any help, feel free to reach out to us at LEGO.build/Service.
Of the 25 LEGO sets I have built in the past few years this set is the worst. It seems that every time I look at this it falls apart. Some of these incidents have been spectacular. I could go on and on about this. If you buy this set be ready for some surprises.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thanks for letting us know about this, we really appreciate it. We'll be passing this on to our design teams. If you would like to share more information with us, please don't hesitate to get in touch via LEGO.Build/Service. We're always here to listen!
I was so excited for this set, but it left me very disappointed. It feels cheap and falls apart easily, not very structally sound. The doghouse itself is the best feature of the set. Not worth the money.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're sorry this set left you feel disappointed. We'd recommend double-checking the build and ensuring that all the pieces are pressed tightly together. It could be the case that one of the bricks is just a tiny bit off from where it should be. If you'd like any help at all, don't hesitate to reach out via LEGO.build/Service.
The chance to alter builds is appealing so at least it feels like play, even if it isn't. This was a great addition to my collection of childhood favorites and I am please with my purchase.
I loved putting this set together for the most part. I thought steps 5 - 8 were a bit odd and redid them several times to ensure I did it correctly. I could still see the technic axle unlike in the softcopy instructions and the online instructions. But, once I got Snoopy together, it was really cute. I'm a very big Snoopy aficionado. He's probably my favorite animated character next to Mystery Inc.
The biggest issue for me was Snoopy sitting on top of the doghouse. Other reviewers have also mentioned this problem. I think Lego would have been wise to use a Technic Axle 3 or 4 (part #4519 or #3705) to properly secure Snoopy to the top of the doghouse. After completing the entire set, I took it to show my wife and within ten minutes Snoopy had fallen off twice only to die a miserable death on the floor.
Thankfully, I have watched enough medical shows that I was able to put Snoopy back together again. I wanted to take this to my classroom in August, but not before figuring out a way to secure Snoopy to the top of the doghouse using a Technic axle.
I still very much enjoy the set and am so very glad Lego finally decided to create a Snoopy set.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your building experience although it must be frustrating when Snoopy keeps falling when moved. We would suggest making sure all pieces are tightly pressed together as there may be a piece slightly off from where it's meant to be. However, we're glad you were able to find a fix that works for you and thank you so much for your feedback!
This is one of the best Lego sets I have ever built! Not just because I'm a Peanuts fan in general, but because of well-planned the concept was! I have built bigger Lego's like the Japanese Cherry Blossom Landscape and the Vespa, but this one was so wholesome to build! The fact that there are 3 ways you can put Snoopy as (sorry Woodstock..) is spectacular! The only thing I would've wished for is a Joe Cool outfit for Snoopy. I have a knockoff Lego that has Snoopy in a puffercoat. It is bigger than I expected, but thankfully it fits perfectly in my display! I definitely recommend this set for those who want to start getting into Lego's or even advanced Lego builders.
