The set is very beautiful and so is the idea behind it. Unfortunately, the quality of the bricks was only mediocre. It took a lot of strength and I broke two fingernails in the process. In the end, my husband had to help me. The instructions were difficult to match the color of the bricks and sometimes the print was so dark that I had to guess. The number of bricks is so high because the set consists almost entirely of small pieces. However, the set is challenging to build and once you've done it, it looks great.
