Rent the LEGO Ferris Wheel

Reckon on 8 to 10 hours for the 2'464 pieces. Most of the time goes into the twelve gondolas and the two wheel rims, which you build twice the same way. That is the repetitive part. The base, the ticket booth and the ice-cream stand are quick after that.

It is 60 cm tall, 55 cm wide and 38 cm deep. The depth is the problem: the base will not fit on a normal shelf, so you need a sideboard or a chest of drawers, with enough headroom above it for the wheel.

No. Set 10247 came out in 2015 and was retired at the end of 2018. New, you can only get it from resellers, where the price is usually well above the original CHF 209.–.

Yes, with a crank on the base. The gondolas hang freely and stay level as it turns. A lever raises the boarding platform, and every gondola has a door that opens. The set has no motor, but it is prepared for the Power Functions M-Motor with a battery box, both of which were sold separately.

No. The set is rated 16+ and uses no unfamiliar techniques. What it asks for is patience: the twelve gondolas and the two wheel rims repeat the same steps, and if that is not for you, spread them over several evenings.

You pick a set from our collection and we send it to your door for free. You build it, keep it as long as you like, and send it back when you are ready for the next one. After a month at the earliest, with no upper limit. Then you choose your next set.

There are three options: the single rental at a one-off CHF 42.–, the monthly plan at CHF 39.– per month and the yearly plan at CHF 29.– per month. Included are the complete set, the instructions, delivery to you and the cleaning. You cover the return, and the label is already in the box.

Yes. The monthly plan can be cancelled to the end of any month, with no reason and no notice period. You send the set back and that is that. The yearly plan commits you for twelve months and costs about a quarter less per month in return.

Every set is washed at 30 °C with soap after it comes back, dried, and checked brick by brick for completeness. Only then does it go out again. So you never get a set somebody else has been through unchecked.

Up to ten lost small pieces are no problem and are included in the price. It happens, vacuum cleaners are merciless. We only get in touch for larger damage or missing large pieces. You do not have to go over the carpet with tweezers.

Orders placed before 14:00 go out the same working day. After that Swiss Post usually takes one to two working days. We deliver anywhere in Switzerland and delivery to you is free.

A LEGO set is usually built once and then sits on a shelf or in a cellar for years. With us the same set passes through eight to ten people. For the same number of sets built, that is up to 90 % less newly produced plastic.
