MECCANO Junior, 150-Piece Bucket STEAM Model Building Kit for Open-Ended Play, for Kids Aged 5 and Up

Good for children

Brought this for my nephew for his 6th birthday, it's a great introduction to the world of Meccano. He spends hours coming up with weird and wonderful constructions. The instructions to make some models are great, very simple and easy to follow. He was really excited when he finished making the car. He did find some of it a bit fiddly especially when he tried to tighten some of the plastic bolts but overall he loved it. Will be purchasing more for him in the near future!!!

Didn’t realise this was plastic unfortunately it looks worth the money . Returned unused

Bought it for my grandson, we all love playing and making things, a good price

Well I liked Meccano as a kid and still do but I am 75. This is for my grandson so I hope he likes it. He can always return it to me if he dos'n't

Purchased for our grandson and it has kept him busy, a good product for a reasonable price

Bought as a present and it looks very impressive. Nice substantial amount.

Buying this for our grandson we hoped would give him hours of fun but when made up we found the nuts and bolts kept coming undone making it disappointing for play. I doubt I would buy any more of this product if it is not improved upon.

Le MECCANO Baril 150 Pièces Junior est un jeu de construction captivant qui stimule la créativité et l'imagination des enfants dès 5 ans. Ce kit comprend 150 pièces et permet de créer jusqu'à 5 modèles différents, offrant ainsi une grande variété de constructions. L'ensemble est livré avec deux outils adaptés aux petites mains, facilitant la prise en main pour les jeunes enfants et les aidant à développer leur motricité fine. Les pièces sont solides et faciles à assembler, et le système de construction est intuitif, ce qui permet aux enfants de réaliser leurs créations de manière autonome ou en suivant les instructions. Ce jeu est une excellente alternative aux écrans, car il encourage les enfants à utiliser leur imagination et à résoudre des problèmes de manière pratique. De plus, la possibilité de créer plusieurs modèles avec le même ensemble de pièces apporte une grande diversité de jeu. Petit bémol : certaines pièces peuvent être un peu petites, ce qui nécessite une supervision pour les enfants les plus jeunes afin d'éviter tout risque d'ingestion. En résumé, le MECCANO Baril 150 Pièces Junior est un jeu éducatif et divertissant, parfait pour stimuler la créativité et l'apprentissage pratique des enfants, tout en offrant une alternative ludique aux écrans.

EXCELENTE APOYO PARA DESPERTA LA CREATIVIDAD EN LOS NIÑOS

Mes petits-enfants ont trouvé et été conquis puis ont adopté un de mes anciens jouets donc j’ai complété le lot.

Nice addition to our previous Meccano kit from 2015. The good: 1. Plastic is still tough (mostly) and feels rugged. 2. Oblong parts, bolts and nuts now have small notches that help keep them in place. 3. Interoperability between kit generations. The bad: 1. Plastic wrench is not so tough and starting to dent in places of high tension. Should be more rigid. 2. Outside dimensions of square nuts are smaller then they should be in order to be properly fixed inside the slots of the corner pieces. But that’s nit-picking, really. Overall: 5 stars.

This is the only time I have written a review as this product is not just disappointing, but a complete waste. The plastic that makes up all of the components is very slippery, so that any "junior" builder has to exert a lot of force to get the screws to hold and then any slight manipulation causes the whole thing to fall apart. What's more the building process is highly seqential, so that any need to go back and make adjustments (due to slippage) is near impossible as the screw heads get blocked by the subsequent stages. My advice is to wait until the kids are older and buy a real building set. The frustration of this set makes it useless.
