Recommendation: meh 4.3 / 5 from 93 reviews

I've always been interested in architecture and design. I stumbled across the LEGO Farnsworth House while doing some online browsing. I wasn't sure what to expect but I haven't had so much simple fun in a very long time. I thought twice, then a third time, about spending this kind of money for a "toy" but it has been well worth it. I would imagine that any intelligent seven or eight year old with an interest in or eye for design and construction, and with the close and continuing supervision of an adult, would enjoy (perhaps in small doses) assembling the house. Go for it!
