"My daughter and I built the Heartlake Private Jet together, and overall we found it to be a pretty nice set. The plane is a good size for playing with, so my daughter enjoys playing with it with her other Friends sets. We thought it was a little overpriced for the size of the set, but there are some interesting and creative pieces, including a laptop, purse, and briefcase along with some pretty interesting sticker.
I would have liked for the design to have included stairs onto the plane somehow, but it's not a big deal.
Overall, it is a good set with nice playability."
I would recommend this to a friend!

"Bought for my 6 year old son. He loves planes and was a little appalled by the gender apartheid on the box, but as the flowers and hearts are only stickers, he left these out. As with the other reviewers, found the plane to be easily customised (changing the wings to a Concorde design). He loves it and has played with it for at least a little while every day since I got it at the start of the summer holidays. A great toy!"

"As a dad with a 5 year old daughter, we found this set incredibly fun to play with. This jet is much better value than the larger Friends passenger jet/airport. It is small enough that little hands can swoosh it around the room and durable enough that it won't fall off easily (e.g. larger jet's doors). As a dad, I also own previous Lego City passenger jets - and this one though small, ranks right up there due to its playability. We did do a few modifications though... we took of the annoying pink flowers on top as my daughter found the fuselage looked better and sleeker without them. We'll also eventually swap out the bulky seats and add more regular seats so it can accommodate more than 2 passengers - which would make the whole security gate accessory make more sense - who owns a private jet and still needs to be scanned ? Although I was at first turned off by the light blue, I actually kind of like it as it resembles some of the vacation package airlines colours that you often see now... anyways, great set Lego !"
"Easy to put together. Cleverly designed. Great value for the price. My girls ages 8 and 10 prefer this plane over the larger plane because it does not fall apart with use. Plus they can land it on top of the lavender house."
