the only reason for knocking off stars is symantic. this is not an every person kind of gift, but for the right person it's an amazing gift. and as for easy to assemble- NO its NOT! but that's why it's great! The instructions are clear, the manufacturing is great, but it does take careful consideration and and attention to detail. You can't just throw this model together. but the end product is sturdy and well fitting and functional. I would definitely purchase another one from this company. Fun and challenging.

This was very fun to build but not so easy. You have to be very careful putting it together. I broke a 2 pieces while build it but some superglue helped. Needed some extra wax and more sandpaper to finish the product.

I gave this to my adult daughter [she has put many together,but this time she wanted to paint the tiny pieces before assembling. she had recently used water colors on a different solid wood project,with great results. I'd thought using water colors on something like this where pieces fit together so tightly without glue would not work, since I thought moisture from the paint would soak into grain of wood& swell the pieces where they could no longer fit together. this box is a jewelry music box, so she painted each little piece using jewel-toned water colors before putting together-the result is a colorful matt finish/really makes the intricate elements of the cut out areas pop. Simple but cute! it's a wind -up mechanism for music, which gives music box sound,& is triggered by opening top.Must line up right when assembling! In regards to this kit compared to other similar kinds, she says” there were typos in the instructionswhich caused some confusion but got i t worked out. [askme if you’d like thedetails] Also, in regards to assemblage by children” You need to pay attention to the details – i.e.if you put the piece that covers the top of the music box section in rotated 180 degrees, then later the box won't shut (because the holes for it to shut into are in the wrong spot). It's really hard to undo mistakes on these because the pieces are so tight, trying to pry them apart often results in breakage. This one had much less pieces than other kits I’ve done, so that might be a bonus for a kid with this one. the right kid could do this if they paid attention to details, were patient, and gentle because it is easy to break parts on these when trying to get them together. You have to press things together firmly but not too firmly. I don't think I've done a single kit where I didn't break a piece. but this kit has fewer pieces so good one for a first try& kids. I have glued pieces back together after breaking,but never fits very good.so do need to try to get right the first time to avoid frustration.Will gladly answer questions in detail if requested!LauraLei

This wooden box has the same concept of another I just put together recently. Both are made by different companies I’m assuming. The instructions were easy enough to follow, the wax was a mini candle (however odd, it was easier to wax the various parts). Getting the pieces out of the wood sheets was a bit more tricky and even after cutting the connections, they still gave me trouble. I like that they gave you precut wooden tools to help with some things. There is no way my 13yro would have been able to put this together without having a lot of broken pieces. Even I had some chipped pieces off of some of the smaller parts because they were fastened to the frame work really well. Would still recommend, it is a beautiful functioning box.

As others have pointed out, although it's a fun project... the functionality and operation have a couple issues. The drawer doesn't always stay engaged with the gears, so to fix this problem, I took a piece of toothpick that I had waxed and inserted it into the front leg decorations (small hole in the legs) on both sides to support the drawer as it comes out. I also waxed the bottom of the drawer that it rests on. Worked like a charm and had no impact visually. Still needs a bit of help to open fully, but works much smoother than it did.

So much fun to assemble this beautiful box! Not easy, you have to watch very closely the instructions. Vse Bude Ukraine!

I have assembled several 3D puzzles over the last few months. Kind of addicted to them. This is by far...my FAVORITE. I followed the directions to a T. I made sure I tested moving parts before moving on to the next section. If I wasn't sure, I would go back, retrace my steps and then move forward. It was worth it. It took me several evenings to complete the box. The compartments are small and It won't open smoothly with one hand. I have to open and close the sides in order to make it work properly....but I'm fine with that. Wax, wax, wax...that's all I have to say about that. I was going to give this to my daughter...but I'm keeping this one! She'll have to get another 3D puzzle from me. I LOVE IT.

The designers tried to put too many little "tricks" in this one. It would be excellent if it were about five times as large and made from real lumber and metal gears. But, I can't imagine anyone really using this as a jewelry box. But , it's still fun to play with!

Si te gustan los puzzles, pero quieres probar algo nuevo, esto puede que te guste. La madera está bien, las instrucciones son claras y también te dicen dónde encontrar un video-tutorial por si necesitas. Viene con todo lo necesario dentro. Además de bonito, es funcional. Si eres paciente vas a pasar un buen raro montándolo y te va a quedar una caja muy bonita tanto como si solo la quieres para decorar como si luego la quieres usar para el día a día.

Really nice box! A bit smaller than I tought but was really fun to build and really good quality. I have used my woodworking soft beeswax instead of the candle wax they provide... I did not like it since it is hard to get all pieces waxed and doing more crumble than I like. Once well waxed it is awesome and opens like a charm. Somewhat hard to remove pieces from board , then used exacto to carefully remove pieces from board.

Il montaggio non è così banale, vi sono alcune parti molto delicate. Seguite attentamente le istruzioni, specialmente per quanto riguarda il taglio degli elastici di richiamo. Con i codici QR ci sono brevi video che aiutano. Si monta in poco tempo ed è molto bella. È piaciuta molto: ne ho costruite cinque per conto di amiche cui era piaciuta la prima.

デザインもよく、仄かに香る木の匂いも 風情があっていいですね 組み立ては少し大変ですが、可動部に付属のロウをしっかり塗っておけば完成後は造作もなく使えます

Was fun to make and am really happy with the result. Thinking about making another for a gift.
