It was a good balance of ease to assemble and following directions. My kids loved having it on the table every night and lighting the candles!

My grand daughter loved this carousel so much! This was a great bonding experience with her. The materials are so sturdy and exceeded our expectations. The directions were clear and this will be a decoration that we will enjoy for years and remember the fun we had creating it and learning about the science involved in it. Thank you for creating such a wonderful educational product.
