  • great gift
Got the LEGO Technic Backhoe Loader (42197) for my son as an intro Technic set. Around 100 pieces — easy for him to build with a little help, not frustrating. For a small set it actually does stuff: front bucket lifts, back arm digs, stabilizers fold down, so he can “work” with it instead of just parking it on a shelf. It’s not very big and the details are simplified, but the price is reasonable and it makes a good starter set for a kid who likes construction vehicles. ... show more

  • Construction fun
Got this for my kid who's really into construction stuff and it was a total hit. The build kept them busy for a while and the moving parts are super cool once it's done. The bucket and arm actually work and it rolls really smoothly. Feels solid and well made like most Technic sets. We had fun building it together and it looks great on the shelf now. Definitely a win if your kid likes machines or building things that actually do something. ... show more

My 7 y/o son loves Legos, and he enjoyed this build. The technic line adds an extra layer of STEM, which makes it fun but also educational.. win-win!

  • Fun LEGO Set That Makes a Great Gift....Read for details...
This LEGO kit looks amazing and super fun. I bought it as a gift, and I’m sure the person I’m giving it to is going to love it. The set looks durable, and the instructions seem easy to follow, which is always a plus. For the price, it feels like a great value. It also looks like it will be easy to assemble — not too big, maybe a little on the smaller side, but still a perfect size for a quick and enjoyable build. Overall, it seems like a great gift and a solid LEGO set for the price. ... show more
