Wood Trick Parisian Carousel Music Box Rotating with Backlit - 3D Wooden Puzzle for Adults and Kids to Build DIY - Wooden Music Box Kit - La Vie en Rose Tune

I'm an avid 3D puzzler, and this has got to be one of my favourite kits so far. The carousel design gives me very nostalgic Mary Poppins vibes…it certainly brought out my inner child. The whole ensemble works as a lovely piece of decor to have on display.The pieces feel quite sturdy and slot in together very well. Smooth edges with no splintery bits or rough corners like I've come across in previous wooden puzzles. The music is such a nifty feature, and really helps bring the carousel to life.Such a fun build. Not too challenging, but still something older teens and adults would enjoy putting together. I'd be happy to recommend.

This is not the best product at all! Parts easily break even with absolute care and using the wax appropriately! I’ve built many of these products and this one is not produced well enough. I am unable to return this as it was bought a short time ago amongst many others and have only just got round to attempting to put this together.Not the bestSave your moneyNot that they care I guess

This is a beautiful to put together Parisian Carousel that uses 3D wood pieces ( total pieces 440 ) using top grade sanded plywood , no glue needed . It takes around 3 hours to construct ( it takes me a lot longer but I do not rush I savour it ) . This will be the third one I have put together a Robotime 3D marble run and a Baroque clock , there are a huge collection that suits everyone to choose from all different and excellent quality . Lovely models that family can get together and children can join in to share quality time together . This carousel is a music box and is backlit using 2x CR2032 batteries ( not included ) . Looks great as a feature piece on a shelf or even a night light and is a good talking point . They make lovely gifts that are different .

I’ve never come across anything like this. There’s a lot more to it than meets the eye – enough to justify the price. The pieces are perfectly cut and go together precisely, without glue. The weight alone confirms the quality. It would keep most people occupied for best part of a day, with tremendous satisfaction on completing it. The excellent instructions make it fairly straightforward, if care and time are taken.Our arty teenage granddaughter thoroughly enjoyed assembling it and now has a beautiful music box in which she can take a great deal of pride. It would make a wonderful gift for the right person.

This arrives flat pack with a whole heap of parts. The quality is immediately clear from the weight of the wood and the intricacy of the carving.There are good instructions inside, but I was helped greatly by other reviewers tips and videos for constructing, and I must be lucky that mine is in working order. It took a lot longer than the 3 hours they suggest, but then if you enjoy model making you’ll be quicker than me. Also it would be quite a nice social craft-y type activity. Take warning when you do the spring bit - like another reviewer said, best wear gloves at that point in case of laceration. (I didn’t have that problem but I can see how you could.)The end result is really beautiful - the intricate carving, the rotation, the lights and the music (La Vie En Rose). Magical. Personally I think I’d prefer to have been given it complete (and of course you can always make it as a gift for someone) but it would be a treat for any crafty model makers.I think the current price of £58.90 is expensive, but given the contents I can understand it. I could see this being well loved and becoming an heirloom to hand down the generations.

DO NOT BUY THIS. This is a new item. But as you see from the pictures half the parts are already popped out. I’ve no idea what number they are and if they are all there. Unfortunately it was after the date for returning when I checked it. £56 is a rip off when it’s not new.

The media could not be loaded.  I forgot to say, the super glue was used on the spring construction to stop it exploding in my hands. Having that spring go off was so dangerous. You need to be careful of your hands and eyes.

This looks pretty complicated to make but once you get going it's relatively easy because it's quite repetitive. All the pieces slot together without glue - a bit like a 3D jigsaw and once it's made, it's an actual working model that turns and plays music. You need 2 x 2032 batteries but they last for ages so there's no need to worry about the expense of buying batteries for it all the time.All in all, a really nice model which would make a good gift for an older child or adult who likes making things and despite being quite delicate looking it's actually pretty sturdy as long as you keep it out of reach of very young children.

Es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht diese Spieluhr zubauen alls ich fertig war habe ich mich gefreut wie ein kleines Kind als ich sie angemacht habe (bin 44 Jahre )

Es muy bonito pero a mí hija le costaba mucho encajar las piezas y no consigio montar el muelle/alambre asique no pudo terminarlo y no es la primera maqueta de madera que hace.

Résultat époustouflant avec en plus la musique de la vie en rose. Le plus difficile est le montage du ressort qu'il faut tendre dans un ensemble de pièces a monter pour l'inclure. Le mal aux doigts est garanti mais le résultat en vaut la peine.

The media could not be loaded.  M’a fait passer de bons moments ! J’ai adoré…je vais m’empresser de recommandé un autre modèle.

Idee super, Umsetzung für'n Pöppes.Ich frage mich, ob die Designer ihren Kram auch mal selber zusammenwursteln.Funktioniert kein Stück da sich das 'Getriebe' völlig aus der Fassung hebt wenn man's aufzieht.Steht jetzt unbeleuchtet hier rum und wartet auf den Ausflug zur Halde.
