UGEARS Mechanical Flower 3D Puzzle - Decorative 3D Wooden Model Kits for Adults to Build - Building Set with Opening Petals Ballerina Stand - 3D Wooden Puzzles for Adults Gift for Birthday - 101 Pcs

This is a lovely little kit, I bought for my 8 year old daughter who loves making things. Some bits were fiddly and she needed my help but she loved the end result.You must use the supplied wax to lubricate where indicated, otherwise the mechanism is too stiff. Some of the pieces are quite hard to fit together simply because they are a tolerance fit to prevent them from coming apart.Recommended.

Arrived spot on time. Not opened the kit yet. Need to have plenty of quiet time to construct this beauty

I have become a convert to these U Gears models. I have now done about 5 of them of varying difficulty. Some reviewers have mentioned problems with quality, but each kit I have received has been fine. Similarly some people have mentioned the poor quality of the instructions. I actually found the instructions excellent, but you have to really study them, it is quite easy to miss a small detail. However if you look carefully, all the required information is there. I would highly recommend these models. For anyone contemplating doing one, I would suggest that they start with a simpler cheaper model before moving on to a bigger more complex one.

Bought as a Christmas present. It gave a few hours of fun with a nice finished, working model at the end of it

Good quality puzzle. Kept hubby entertained for 2 hours. Would buy again from this seller.

I bought the Date Navigator and was very pleased with it, so I treated myself to this one with my birthday vouchers. However, it is very fiddly to put together. Some pieces are very thin and delicate and tight fitting, and because of this, I have broken three peices. I have managed to mend one of these, but I won't be fitting any of the embellishments. It does work, but I won't be risking it.

This is the 2nd flower I’ve bought. I spray painted the first gold before assembly but such are the close tolerances in the assembly, it gummed up the mechanics - my fault. I’ve left the 2nd one unpainted and it works but the movement was stiff to start with and I feared the base might break with the force needed. All is OK now. It looks stunning and should open up to reveal something lovely such as jewellery/watch etc. I’m intending to have coloured tissue paper on the inside which opens up with the petals.

In terms of ease of construction, this is very good, very precise parts just click together with minimal trimming/sanding. Only took 3 hours!

My husband bought me this for Christmas and it's soooooo cool. If you don't like the ballerina they give you an alternative center piece (I'm going to put something inside it idk what yet) it's made of lasor cut plywood......I broke a few pieces but quite a few of the really small pieces had an extra just incase so I it ended up fine. I broke one of the main arms but a little wood glue and one of those black paper clips fixed it no problem (the super zoomed in picture is the repair) As you would expect it's definitely too complicated for children.

Purchased as a birthday gift for a friend, he likes it and is enjoying the build

It was my first foray into wooden puzzles and all it did was make me wanna do more. I really love this puzzle

Magnifique mais reste moyennement facile à monter. Bien faire attention en décrochant les pièces à ne pas les casser et mettre la cire de bougie sur tous les engrenages même si la notice ne dit pas de le faire :)!

Das "Holz-Puzzle" habe ich mir und meinem Freund zu Weihnachten geholt, damit wir etwas zusammen basteln können.Schnell hat sich herausgestellt, dass die "Puzzle" eher was für eine Person sind, da nahezu jedes Teil auf dem vorherigen aufbaut.Die Teile befinden sich in einem vorgestanzten Holzbrett und sind sehr leicht "herauszubrechen". Für sehr kleine Teile, die schnell brechen, sind größtenteils mehrere Ersatzteile in dem Bausatz vorhanden.Zum zusammenstecken ist an einigen benannten Stellen Wachs von Nöten, was bei diesem Bausatz auch enthalten war - bei einem weiteren Bausatz fehlte das Wachs, aber Kerzen hat man ja meist zu Hause, die bringen es auch.- Hier kann ich empfehlen eine kleine Geburtstagskerze zu verwenden, da diese sehr dünn und klein ist und somit an die meisten Stellen herankommt.Die Holzoptik ist wunderschön und auch der Geruch überzeugt."Die Blume" lässt sich über ein Zahnrad drehen und somit die Blütenblätter auf- oder zufächern. Die Ballerina dreht sich ebenso.Das erste Mal drehen ging noch etwas schwerläufig, beim zweiten Mal ging es dann aber wie geschmiert.Nachdem wir zwei Puzzle gepuzzelt hatten, wurden zwei neue bestellt. Bin gespannt, wann wir alle Bausätze durchprobiert haben. :)Somit nur zu Empfehlen!!
