AMAZING gift! Read review for details
This will be a long and detailed review that can help many prospective buyers.Firstly I’d like to say that I bought this product as a gift. I assembled it myself and gifted it to my significant other. I loved the process and my partner adored the gift. It’s beautiful and unique!Now, assembling the product was mostly easy, but there were definitely difficulties. It needs time and patience! I personally broke a key base piece that made the process more difficult but I eventually managed to put it all together. REMEMBER that when trying to take out the smallest or slimmest pieces, ALWAYS use the little tool provided as opposed to knives or excessive force. If you break something critical then you’re most likely screwed. If you follow the EXACT instructions, everything will be good. If you start growing impatient, I suggest you take a break and continue later, because each piece needs to be handled and put together perfectly for this to work. Also, USE CANDLES FOR WAX. This is VERY important. If you do not wax the pieces you’re instructed to wax, you will struggling attaching them to others & eventually the box won’t work smoothly.All in all, it’s so beautiful and so worth it! I’d recommend 1000 times! Enjoy!

Very well made kit and end result
Bought another Ugears kit for our son-in-law for Christmas, and he said how good it was. Then my wife's sister had a treasure box made for her by her son, my wife liked it so I said I would build her one. It arrived late on a Thursday, stated it the following PM and finished it on the Saturday late morning, so not long overall. Good quality kit, easy to follow instructions (just take your time to do it precisely right) and very pleased with the outcome. Does exactly what it says on the box, and I would recommend. Certainly will be looking at more Ugears stuff in the future!

Beautiful and frustrating
Absolutely lovely piece, well worth the money. Not particularly easy to assemble, and I thoroughly recommend investing in more wax and melting it before application - liberally coat every mechanical part with it, because getting the mechanism moving is a nightmare and because of the construction the separate parts cannot be worked beforehand. Be gentle and keep working a little at a time and it will start to move smoothly eventually.

Interesting and Worth the Money
I bought this to make as a gift for a friend, and despite it being fiddly, it was incredibly fun. I completed it over the course of a day and although my thumbs and fingertips are now red raw it was well worth it. The instructions are nice and clear, did have a little bit of confusion toward the end but it turned out that the mechanism was a little stiff. Would definitely buy again, whether it would be this exact model or a different model from UGEARS I am not yet sure.You don't need to be overly crafty to do this, just quite patient and inquisitive. Well worth the money!

Fantastic
My daughter and I spent a very happy day making this. I was amazed by the accuracy of the cutting.There are some intricate bits. Some steps require careful force. And some you have to really pay attention to the plan.Provided you go carefully, step by step, there is every reason to expect success.Ugears provide spare pieces in case you break one (we didn’t) and I read in their website that they will send replacement pieces free of charge. That’s good to know because it is certainly possible to break a piece.This is probably the best thing I’ve bought on Amazon. Top, top quality.Five stars. I’d give it six if I could!

Very accurately cut by laser and clear instructions. A remarkable design.
This is such a beautifully crafted piece of kit, I felt it deserved a bit of embellishment so l lined the interior with sticky backed felt (£1 a sheet from a hobby shop) and gilded the front panel with 24ct gold. I also lacquered the external panels before separating them from the plywood sheets. This little jewellery box looks absolutely gorgeous and far more complicated than it actually is. I tended to lightly sand some of the wooden pegs so they didn’t jam half in during assembly. Full credit to the designers - it’s a long time since I’ve been blown away by a product.

Perfect build to start with.
Loved this little project. It was an anniversary present for us both. I constructed it and the wife uses it. A perfect build to start on, getting used to lubricating gears and moving parts. Works great. Moving on to the Steam Train.
