Great fun to build. If you follow the instructions to the letter (or should that be the picture?) you will have a fully working model without the need for glue or anything else not in the kit. To assemble carefully push out the laser cut pieces listed to the left of the instruction group pictures, there are 50 of these to follow. For the more difficult parts, they have a QR code to scan, so help is just a couple of clicks away. I’m an engineer so didn’t need to use them plus I perhaps built this faster than some at about 5hrs.
In operation, I found that sometimes a ball would get stuck or drop from the run, but mostly they run perfectly. The only improvement I would like is some way to make the balls flip flop between the two tracks. Would I buy another or their kits, yes, provided I can convince management I don’t need to wait until my next birthday / Christmas 🙂

Fun kit to assemble. Putting the ramps in can be difficult but was doable. I needed glue only in a couple of places.
It worked alright but the “switch” that routes the marbles to either just the ramps or to the spiral tends to throw marbles off the ramps.

Beautiful kit! Lasered pieces are perfect and a few extras was helpful! This was so much fun to assemble. I can’t wait to bring it into my STEM classroom. The engineering and structure is simple yet fascinating. I hope to add a motor to automate it. Highly recommend this kit!

This is an amazing piece. Its design is beautiful and the engineering mind-bogglingly elaborate. It was a pleasure to assemble and took around 5 hours, split over two days. Once made, I’ve found it rather therapeutic during the lock-down in the UK.
I did have one issue, however. Part G3 prevented the mechanism from working properly as one of the scoops keep getting stuck. When I removed it, the mechanism also seized up. The solution was to saw off the two side lugs and to stick G3 onto the third scoop from the bottom to retain distance – hoping that helps anyone who encounters a similar problem!

very easy to assemble, nice enough to include extra pieces.

Super fun activity to do while you are struggling to keep from going insane with “shelter in place.” I built this in a few hours with my daughter helping me. It was interesting, entertaining, engaging, and educational. It requires some precision as well as careful reading of the detailed assembly instructions, but putting it together is comparable to Lego instructions, so well within the capability of careful kids. There are QR code links for trickier assembly bits, but we only used one of them (and only to confirm that we were on the right track). It’s a neat STEM activity to do at home. We had so much fun that now my other daughter and my husband want to try doing their own! Finally, I look forward to bringing the Parkour Marble run into my Science classroom once we are back in school, after the COVID-19 quarantines. I anticipate it being a good conversation starter and a neat kick-off demo for my Physics class roller coaster activity.
