Review: Great fun and an amazing build - This was an incredible build. All the parts.... The instructions very good with enough vagueness where you had the pay attention and think through some of the sections. Only three errors in the instructions. All and all an awesome kit.
Review: Just Amazing and Beyond Belief - This is a Christmas Gift and it is everything and more that I had expected. Lots of parts but a manual that guides you through the assembly procedure as all of the KNex manuals do. The fact that it came with free shipping was a huge bonus as it arrived the next day and I was not expecting it so that was a huge surprise also. We are looking forward to the building of this awesome 3D puzzle. Well here it is now two months later and we have built it. It took us three days, there were just two of us working on it, and it was a great experience. It is not for the faint of heart but one needs to commit to the full process and the result is beyond compare. There were a few extra pieces but not many and the manual was very good. only a couple of minor glitches that were easily overcome, for instance mistaking four yellow rods for the only four gold rods that came in the kit when it was time to begin the actual wheel. It was wonderful and friends have been awed by it. Great Job.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many hours does it take to assemble?**
A: If you are working by yourself about 15 hours and that is if you are familiar with the KNEX system and the instructions.  That is how long it took me and I have done it a few times.

**Q: Does it come with the basket seats?**
A: The seats are built with K'NEX rods and connectors which are included in the set.

**Q: I wanted to know the width of the product.  I know it's 6 Ft tall.  And don't under the listing below of "13.8 x 12 x 13.8 inches"?**
A: Basically what Connie said,  6 feet tall 6 feet wide and the base is about 2 feet wide.   And the width of the Ferris wheel is the width of a red rod or 7”

**Q: Is this an official k'nex set? does it come in the original k'nex box?**
A: It is an official k'nex set.  Mine however did not come in an original box.  I chose to make a wooden box for it because at 30 pounds plus, the original box would not have lasted very long.  I made my box the same size as the shipping box that the product came in.
