text: The building set might be fine but one of the reasons I bought it was that I liked the idea of a sturdy carrying case with a handle so that the set can be taken to Grandma's or to a friend's. With all the other toys and legos kids play with, there are so many small pieces, it's important to provide good storage for kids as they clean up and sort toys in their play areas. This is not good storage. The plastic box was smashed during shipping because it is made of thin material and I'm sure the handle wouldn't last long. I thought about just keeping the set and buying another sturdy tote but I believe the storage should have been better for the price, so I returned everything.
