“For the price, that's an incredible number of pieces. The pieces themselves are also extremely useful. You get a printed computer screen, string with end studs, 8 wheels and tires, 4 axles, two different windshields, a good selection of small plates, a garbage can, and a... More broom. The wheels/tires/axles are something you can never have too many of, so it's great that this set comes with so many.”

BrickEconomy Expert Review
“This LEGO set offers a solid value with a favorable price-per-brick ratio, appealing to those who appreciate a good deal in their collection. The set includes instructions for three primary models, with images suggesting up to seven possible builds, although the designs are straightforward and not particularly challenging to assemble. The first model, a red sports car, has a striking design but suffers from scale issues when a minifigure is placed inside, leading to a somewhat comical appearance.”
 

About Bricks and More

The LEGO Bricks and More theme, which was active from around 2006 to 2014, was a successor to the earlier FreeStyle and ake and Create themes. The primary goal of the Bricks and More theme was to provide sets that were centered around basic building. Rather than focusing on specialized pieces or intricate themed models, Bricks and More emphasized open-ended creativity with more generic LEGO bricks and simple building concepts.
Summary
