Is this snap together or does it require glue? I was thinking of getting it for my 72 year old brother who lives in assisted living.

It is like legos. My 9 year old put it together with no assistance. However, he is quite the lego kid so that may not say much!

It is basically the same as Lego so there is no glue required. I enjoyed helping my 9 year old put it together.

You just snap it together. I got it for my 9 year old son and he really enjoyed the challenge of putting it together.

It does not require glue, but it's not as easy as a kid's toy. It should be fine as a gift for your brother if he's patient and ok with smallish pieces.

I purchased this for my six year old grandson. This is like a lego toy. He put together in no time. No glue required. I think 450 parts (pieces). It is a lego type model.

Hi it snaps together like a lego. My son built it with no problems and he loves it. Very well made!

This is snap together. We bought if for our 9 year old son, but he needed assistance putting it together. The directions were a bit confusing, especially because he is used to Lego directions; after a bit of concentration, he and his dad figured it out. It took them 3 hours to assemble it. It's a great product, we are extremely pleased with the quality of bricks and how well they fit together. I hope this helps!

Snap little pieces together (like the brand name, but more expensive Lego).

it does have to be screwed together, took about 6 minutes....It's a real nice solid piece. I like it way more than I thought that I would.

It fits together like a puzzle. You don't need screws or tools. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. It will go together in about ten minutes.

Dear Marion, yes it requires assembling. How ever instructions are easy to follow.

Yes, I am a 64 years old female and I assembled it myself, not that big a deal if you can read instruction.

it mainly snaps together. there are a few screws in the arch. if you are going to place it where it isnot protected from the wind, i would recommend inserting a 2x3 in the sides and mounting the lowerbase with some l brackets - just gives it some rigidity

Yes the pieces snap together. Although this is lower quality then a wood set and has it's own issues (mine had missing pieces etc). The quality is low for the plastic so it might break.

You have to put it together, but it's not hard to do. I'm 76 years old and my daughter is 50, and we put it together by ourselves in a few hours. We decided to paint it, and that took longer than the actual assembly.

Some assembly is required. It requires wood glue and comes unstained. It comes with easy step by step instructions. I have read many customer reviews that say it is pretty easy to assemble and they rate it very high overall.

It took my husband 45 minutes to put it together but he's Mr. Handyman. If you know how to use basic tools, like a screwdriver and wrench and maybe have an extra set of hands around, you should be able to do it. yes, I'm in my 60's and this machine is great, particularly because it's up off the floor, which is what I needed. My only criticism is that the resistance is pretty low. I'm not in shape at all but could use more resistance.

Yes, you have to put it together. But I am a retired 70-yr-old woman, and am proud to say I DID IT with no problem!!

It's glued together. I used a flatbread screw driver but damaged it alil popping lid off. Light stopped working, now works again but still messed to properly grazy glue it together so no leaks

There is some assembly, but it is not too awful hard. As a single elderly woman (60) I was able to do it myself. I was a little disappointed thou. At first it seemed to be his favorite toy. But it became a very awkard toy. It is too wide for a young childs leg width and handles awkard to manuver for a small 3 year old.

It's suppose to snap on. Mine was so warped, it would barely hold together. Anytime we bumped it, it so flimsy, you thought it was going to come apart.

no glue required, just teeny tiny screws and snap together. do not know what effect repeated assembly/disassembly would have on plastic. is a very well made kit tho.

I used regular wood glue. Some of the pieces slot together so tightly they don't need it, and if you paint them, which we did, that helps too.

I remember having the same problem. Try something different for the spacer or cut the spacer in half. Once you get it to snap together, it will be fine. It has been assembled and in heavy use by my 5 year old since I bought it.
