"I bought this set because it is one of the few sets currently on the market that is mostly regular/rectangular bricks. I also have a continuously growing Cloud Cuckoo Palace and this set has plenty of great colors for my creation.
That being said, I built it per the instructions and like it enough that I haven't taken it apart yet. I don't actually USE it to store anything, but there it sits on my play table anyway.
Two things I don't care for about the set are the choice of light tan for the inside lid color--I would have much preferred to get those bricks in white or pink, and that the big nesting box is too tall to sit in the back of the main box without getting in the way of the hinge mechanism. I suspect any child that doesn't understand this will constantly have to put the back of the box back together. LEGO Designers could have done a better job to avoid that."
I would recommend this to a friend!

"It is a cute box and the opening mechanism works well but the back wall falls off a lot and no matter how much I fix it (my 8 year old built it) the bricks loosen and back wall needs to be secured on a regular basis."
