The product appears to be of high craftsmanship, however the advertised syringe was not included with my package. Now, I have to see if the company can send me one or if I have to buy one separately, which is a pain. I haven't tested it out yet for this reason. Additionally, the product does not match the advertised product in the pictures on the store website since mine is missing the vertical metal strip with the word "Microcosm®". Lastly, the included informational/instruction sheet is very poorly written, as if written by a non-native English speaker who was deprived of a decent education.
Great engine, starts easy and runs good. Only thing I am not happy with are the oil cups. Way to small and take a lot of time to keep refilled. Need a better oiling system.
Producto muy bien acabado y que funciona perfectamente. Precio muy asequible. Muy contento.

Ordered direct, shipped, door to door to UK, in 7 days, fully tracked
All on-line aspects re purchase and tracking, easy to follow and user friendly, supported by great communication.
Beautifully packaged kit, with all parts listed and clear, easy to follow assembly instructions.
Engineering quality of component parts is outstanding, facilitating easy and accurate assembly of a live steam model, that is both functional and aesthetically pleading, to display.
I have been looking at this for a long time and finally ordered it. I was completely surprised at how well it was packed. Looks amazing and a great project for busy hands.
I've never seen such a beautiful beam engine model with a fully working flyball governor, so I absolutely needed to buy this kit. Assembling was easy and great fun. And the little engine runs perfectly even for the first time! This is really a great high quality model that brings so much joy - I would buy it again without hesitation.

Loving putting it together, and the pdf instructions is a winner can't wait to finish and see it run 🙌
A very difficult & challenging build but a lot of fun building this set.
Good instructions. Definitely value for money.
