The media could not be loaded. I saw the video the one woman posted of the Burj falling apart and was nervous before I purchased. If it assembled correctly, this thing is definitely sturdy. My 6 year old loves the Burj Khalifa. We got him this and quickly discovered it was far too complex for him to assemble (or even help that much). The build took a couple nights to finish since I can’t just sit around and work on this. Once it was done though, it looked awesome and is definitely a great project for the price.

A fun, easy build. The instuctions need to be followed closely as it's easy to get mixed up. Also, it can come apart while handling it during the buld. It required a few drops of glue here and there, but mostly locked together well. And the completed model is quite impressive.

I discovered this brand and type of puzzle when trying to occupy my mind during a terrible time in my life. I was trying to handle my Mother and Uncle in the hospital at the same time and driving many hours 4 times weekly. When I was not driving, I was working on these to take my mind off them.I appreciated the instructions, effort required, patience, and overall quality of the product which I have on display in my home in various locations. I would recommend this as a personal project or a family effort. Even though not many pieces, it is time-consuming and worth it in the end. I will continue to recommend this brand as well as look forward to the next puzzles they provide. I have redone a couple twice as I needed something to occupy me, and these were the perfect item.

It was one of my Dad's birthday presents. We've been to Paris and on the Eiffel Tower. He just opened the the box and looked at it and said, Next I want Notre Dame! So, I'm going with he was pleased!

Unfortunately, this 3D Puzzle leans towards the Latter.The Good: My daughter was able to complete the assembly mostly on her own. She has put many puzzles of this type together before, so she had some previous experience and seemed to enjoy the process which took about 6 hours over 3 days. Fully assembled it does look impressive and the lights add to the realism BUT they also create most of the assembly problems.The Bad: As mentioned, the majority of the assembly issues involved the led lighting. The instruction diagrams are inaccurate for almost all of the wiring layouts including routing and where to secure the excess slack. There are very little written instructions throughout the manual which is both a blessing and a curse. The light harnesses I received are clearly longer than shown by a couple to several inches depending on the location, there are four separate light sets. On a model this size it makes a huge difference where you route the wires so as not to interfere with the many cutouts and the extra length compounded the problem. I had to step in after my daughter made several failed attempts to properly secure the wiring which would interfere with the next step requiring us to disassemble and repeat. It's as if the lights were an afterthought. Also, there were a few small issues with the cutouts not properly aligning but they were minor compared to the lights. Lastly, even though the instructions claim "no tools required" the reality is tape, glue, and a razor knife are necessary at certain steps to stabilize a section before moving on to the next. The Eiffel Tower was meant to be a test for this brand before moving onto the more complicated (and expensive) Notre Dame de Paris. But now I'm not sure if it's worth the cost or time.

This was my second 3d puzzle to build and I got to say this was a lot of fun! It was also a nice surprise at the end to see that the LEDs change color. Before I started building I thought that the pieces were going to be cheap and might break but they were fitting together easily with hardly any folds and at the end the tower was very sturdy(survived a fall and could be lifted by just the top part of the tower). I would definitely recommend buying more of these CubicFun 3D puzzles, for myself.

This is a piece of junk. The directions are difficult to near impossible to follow. It wouldn’t stay out together. You try to pop one piece back in place and two more pop out. I will never get the time and money I wasted on this. My sanity took a direct hit during the building faze. There was a lot of anger involved.
