It was just what was wanted. This will help my son in his design of his own water fountain show.

I bought this for my 6 & 8 year old boys to play with together. It's a neat kit, and both were able to do it independently. I'd love to have the option to buy additional base pieces to increase the configuration options.
There was a small learning curve but once they knew how to put the pieces together, they could build independenly - even my three year old daughter caught on after watching for a bit. The label pieces (flags, building names) are flimsy but the other parts are sturdy and have held up well for the past 5-6 months.
The instructions were a little tough to follow at first -- some additional detailed, step-by-step illustrations would help parent novices - but we did catch on. I absolutely recommend following the instructions for the first build.
Loves kit, instructions weak

The kit is fun to operate and my 3rd grader enjoys tinkering with it. However, it is difficult to follow the diagrams when you're new to it. It is not step by step as Legos provide. It only shows the finished schematic that you copy. So there is more parental involvement with younger kids. Also, it doesn't provide information about how the design translates to how the item manufactured is really made - e.g. what gets added where in order for toothpaste or icecream, etc to come out where?
