- December 9th, 2019Average rating4out of 5 stars4.0FunJimmena | 25-34I would recommend this to a friend!Purchased for: SelfI love cranes, i thought it would be more difficult. Like others mentioned, the legs are sort of blah. The boom works well, not i will build the tower crane. Over all, it looks very nice, i had several extra pieces, maybe i'll use them all on the tower crane option (?).Play ExperienceAverage rating3out of 5 stars3.0Level of DifficultyAverage rating2out of 5 stars2.0Value for MoneyAverage rating3out of 5 stars3.0Build Time: 8 hrsBuilding Experience: Novice LEGO builderWas this helpful?45Compact Crawler Crane
- April 8th, 2020Average rating4out of 5 stars4.0Crawler craneVenus | 35-44I would recommend this to a friend!Purchased for: SonMy son is only 8 and he built it by himself. I only helped once. He likes the tracks and that it can lift really heavy things. He likes putting it on a table and lift things from the floor. Overall he is happy with it.Play ExperienceAverage rating4out of 5 stars4.0Level of DifficultyAverage rating3out of 5 stars3.0Value for MoneyAverage rating3out of 5 stars3.0Build Time: 2 daysBuilding Experience: Intermediate LEGO builderWas this helpful?45Compact Crawler Crane
- August 23rd, 2019Average rating4out of 5 stars4.0Great FunctionalityCoJack88 | 25-34I would recommend this to a friend!Purchased for: SelfGreat smaller set to kill time that my 3 year old who is a crane fanatic cannot leave it alone. Boom detail and functionality is great, however undercarriage feel as though it is lacking. Also scale between boom and undercarriage feels off when set is retracted in travel position. For those that note that the boom cannot rotate without hitting the outriggers. There is a catch, the base of the boom pivots at the slew. This needs to be adjusted forward in order to prevent fouling during boom rotation. (See picture) Will say it is a great array of parts for future MOCS and for the price I believe it represents value for money.Play ExperienceAverage rating4out of 5 stars4.0Level of DifficultyAverage rating3out of 5 stars3.0Value for MoneyAverage rating4out of 5 stars4.0Build Time: 4 hrsBuilding Experience: Intermediate LEGO builderWas this helpful?45Compact Crawler Crane
- August 12th, 2019Average rating4out of 5 stars4.0Excellent setRaysting | 19-24I would recommend this to a friend!This set is quite large when fully unfolded and extended and has a lot of functions for play value. Also, it folds up very neatly, which means it is easy to store if space is an issue. Overall, the set is good value for money, as you get a lot oof pieces for the price and would recommend to fans of construction equipment and Lego in general.Play ExperienceAverage rating4out of 5 stars4.0Level of DifficultyAverage rating4out of 5 stars4.0Value for MoneyAverage rating4out of 5 stars4.0Build Time: 3 hrsBuilding Experience: Expert LEGO builderWas this helpful?45Compact Crawler Crane
