This was the first time I ever ordered something and had it shipped to a different address than my own. I was kind of uneasy doing this, but my sister has done it many times. So, I decided to do it. This lego set is for a 9 year old little girl that I have never met. Her parents are both in prison and she lives with her grandparents. A family that are friends of ours that live in Tennessee now have a daughter that is friends with the young girl. The grandparents have no money to buy her anything for Christmas. But, they will be going to our friends house for Christmas and I wanted to help out with her Christmas list. Arrived on time. Our friends said she will love it. Love to her from our family in Michigan. Can never go wrong with lego sets.Oh. My. Gosh. This set is AMAZING. The build is so much fun (I took apart and rebuilt the roof several times). The ice cream shop portion is just too adorable, and it comes with a bunch of flavors AND a popsicle!! My seal's face came slightly misprinted, but it actually is even more endearing with its face at an angle like that so again, no complaints. As for the boat, if you put your fingers over the oars and move the figure back and forth, it makes a rowing motion! I also love the bathroom door piece and am using it in my custom layout. This set just has so much right about it. Everyone should buy it.I purchased this as a gift for my niece. It was not available at my local lego store so it was nice to find it on amazon.Lego is always high quality and worth the money. I really like that there are lots of 'friends' sets that appear to girls along with the other lego options.It's fun to build the set as shown, then re-imagine things by using the pieces to build whatever your imagination comes up withMy oldest daughter absolutely loves Lego Friends. I purchased this as a Christmas gift for her. All of our local stores shelves were pretty much bare or very limited in a selection of Lego Friends. I was extremely excited to have found the Heartlake Lighthouse on Amazon and to see that it was even a better price than in stores. My daughter was really happy with the lighthouse and has been able to rebuild her own creations as well with this set. I love the durability of Legos! We will be using these Legos for years to come!My daughter likes this LEGO bricks very much. But the brick 4286050 (a pink cubic) is absent in the pakage. I promise I did not lose it. I can't find it when I open the plastic package. So the castle looks like this. You can see the hole in the wall, just on the left of the flower. I am a littile disappointed with this.This is a really fun Lego set. I would give it a 5 but it has too many loose parts when it it finished. Some of the pieces do not attach but simply lay in other parts. But if you have a daughter who likes the friends Legos, she will like this.This is a very cute set for a little girl, although, it could be for a boy. There isn't that much pink or girly things to discourage boys. It was pretty quick to build. There is a registar, place to scoop ice-creams and make sundaes, a little bathroom, stairway to a secret room, a bedroom above the ice-cream shop, the light house top, and a deck out front of the shop with tables. The little boat it comes with is nice too.This is a great set that my daughter enjoyed building; however, it is a bit expensive for the size.My daughter has had hours of fun with this. Can't go wrong with LEGO.It was a gift for my daughter and she loved it!it is really nice lego set.Grand daughter loves her new Lego Friends.Très satisfaite de mon achat.
