LEGO Creator Expert 10244 Fairground Mixer

What a joy to open my box and find my 10 year old Lego set wrapped in bubble wrap and it's original unopened box 100% scratch and dent free. It looks like I pulled it off the shelf at a Lego store yesterday.I would definitely buy from Kickleshop again.

This set is fabulous. It does take a while to build, and one must be very careful when building the gears and such, but once it is complete - well wow! My grandson is a lego-officiendo, and it was hard to find a set that would surprise and delight him. This was it! The set has lots of great minifigures (including kids, which is great) to boot. Everything fits into two compact trucks, so it looks really cool when stored. I like it that when the set is stored,, there are no dangling parts like in many other sets. My grandson has lots of fun bringing the trucks out and setting up the fairground, and I have fun putting them all away cause everything fits together in such a cool way. Super awesome set! A caveat: this set would have been far too complicated for a 7 year old to build, so unless your little one is very very precocious, expect to spend at least two good nights building with legos!

I have gotten the Lego building bug at the age of 53. The only real grip I have is the stickers, for I can't stand putting stickers on the parts. I always seem to get them crooked. I have been noticed people complaining about parts missing in their reviews. I have a tip that might help out anyone in the future buying a Lego Creative Set and that is when you open the bags of parts don't throw the empty bags out, but put the empty bags in the box that the set came in. I know this has saved my bacon not just once, but twice now on two separate builds. I thought I was missing some parts on two separate builds (Ferris Wheel and Fairground Mixer), but when I went through the empty bags the missing part was clinging inside the not so empty bag.

This set is a wonderful cross between difficulty of build and compactness of the result! :D It is a non-trivial build, but also when you are done, you have two lego trucks (one fixed axle, one 5th wheel like any semi on the road) which carry the whole set. It is the most carnival set I've ever had the pleasure of building, and more than worth the price of admission, if I'm honest. Worth noting that each of the three arms on the scrambler spin independently from the core, just like a real scrambler, even if it doesn't appear that way on the box. Can't recommend this set enough!

This set is worth every penny. My seven year old was able to build it, but she has been building Legos since she could walk. I think the 16+ age recommendation is overstated. The set was so well designed and you can see that there was considerable time spent in designing it. There are many points of reinforcement for moving parts so it does not come apart. It all packs up nicely on two trailers. This is by far the coolest Lego set I've seen and your child get hours of enjoyment building and playing with it. Everything works well and was carefully though out. Then, parents will be happy because the almost 1800 pieces packs up so neatly and drives into storage.

Happy customer

My son loves it! It was the first present he used after all his birthday presents were opened. He had it together in short order and was very happy with the finished product. He does somewhat wish he had opted for the one with the motor drive but that can always be added later. Lego definitely makes the best building brick sets out there and we pay for it. We have tried other brands but nobody makes one that fits together better. I sure wish another company out there did so we may have a less expensive option out there. Until that time though, it's Lego for us.

One whole bag missing! Started building with son. As we started to build bag 2, noticed a few large pieces missing. Then realized all the pieces from a "bag 2" were missing. Hoping this company will make this right. I'm thinking this must have been a used item that was previously returned.
