Recommendation: meh 4.3 / 5 from 212 reviews

this is a great Lego1- it is very neat, accurate, snaps well, fits perfectly.2- it is very easy for the children to build and disassemble3- my 5 years old girl did finish it all from the manual, with very minimal adult assistance (just telling her that she got it right)4- my 3 years old boy did assemble them all with help of course but it was easy for him to build the bricks (I was afraid he might find them too small as he used to play with Lego Dublo, by the way this lego and Dublo fit well together.5- this package contains two vehicles, not just one, and they both look great when they r finished.6- there is some tiny parts that could be swallowed by little kids, so you might want to consider it.7- this is part of a bigger collection (LEGO CITY) and they fit well together.its great value for the money, and fun for the whole family.

Recommendation: no 75 / 100 by Wrinkledog

This set is mixed for me. It comes with a very cool little loader. But the truck is only so/so. If Lego had made the Loader its own little set that would have been better. I think this would have been a lot nicer had it been made in a color other than yellow. Overall it's a good addition to the mining theme.
