Recommendation: meh 4.8 / 5 from 62 reviews

My boys banged together the hauler really fast. The cargo loader was a lot more complicated and the oldest ended up doing most of the assembly.Features:The loaders boom extends and travels up and down.The haulers front wheels turn via a wheel on top of the cab. I have never seen this feature before, it is pretty cool and allows for some added function during play time.Obviously the cargo containers are removable.

Great build, great colour scheme, lots of play value if you're not an old duffer like me. The vehicles look superb once they are built. One of my favourite Lego Sets.

Build the stacker and containers and use the rest as spare parts!

The mechanisms are clever and work flawlessly. Aesthetically the individual models are great, particularly the telehandler. There are a few areas where there's room for improvement, though.

This set is a good source of pieces in certain colours and some of the newer parts in the Technic range. The build lasted a long time for a small set but it was varied and enjoyable. Finishing one model is a natural pause for playing in the build, which was a nice bit of variety. There's some very neat engineering to be found here, with an interesting variety of mechanisms used. 42062's main flaw is that it's frustrating to use/play with, to load the containers, without “cheating". However, there is a lot of value and fun here for both young and old Technic builders.
