Good kit, fun to make and kind of educational.
Excellent little Lego kit, educational (up to a point) and fun to make over Christmas with a few glasses of pro and movies on in the background. If you like Lego, this is easy to assemble, but enough of a challenge to make it interesting. Once built, crank the handle to see a representation of orbits. Also marvel at how everyone and everything would fly off the planet if you were God.

Kids learn so much!
This is so sophisticated and needs to be very cautious and precise while building. Easier using the Lego app than the book for instructions. Its design is more sturdy than expected. And this is a great learning experience in gear ratios.

Great set for anyone interested in space and the moon
We bought this for our 8 year old son for Christmas as he asked for a Lego set and has shown an interest in space recently. It is marketed for age 10+ which I think is pretty accurate, he could have probably managed to build it on his own but it was a fun thing for him and his dad to build together. We’re very impressed with the quality and functionality of it. When you turn a handle the moon revolves around the earth and the earth around the sun. There are stickers for the months and to show whether we see a full moon, half moon etc. which is a really nice detail. It’s a little bigger than I was expecting but still small enough to sit on a shelf. It’s nice and sturdy once built and has feet to stop it sliding around. As far as Lego sets go I think it was a pretty reasonable price. I’d definitely recommend this set to others!

Brilliant, but the sun is white
Brilliant (got this elsewhere) but they chose the wrong color of the sun. The sun is white, not yellow.
