This is another wonderful addition to our Christmas season collection. We build and tear down these sets each year. It goes nicely with the rest of the Winter Village sets. It has become one of our family traditions each year. We've had to start rotating the kits we build as the space to display them is limited. A wonderful pass time on a cold snowy day.

Adorable addition to anyone's Christmas Lego decorations. My 8 year old daughter had fun putting together. I would give 5 stars except for price. I should have bought at Lego store earlier in the season and saved $15! My fault though.

I found this set to be a joy to build and display, despite a couple of the smaller components having their own issues.

This is another delightful seasonal set. The Christmas tree is terrific and the whole set makes for a lovely little scene. For the price (169 pieces, $9.99, 9.99€, £8.49) it's a great set to pick up for an office display or a stocking stuffer.

The finished model makes a nice little holiday display on its own. If you combine it with other seasonal sets, it would be easy to have a lovely Christmas display, even on a tight budget.
