LEGO Christmas tree 40573, 784-piece 2-in-1 building set

About this product

This LEGO set, number 40573, comes as 784 pieces and gives two ways to build: one larger Christmas tree for display, or two mini trees. Both builds carry ornaments, candles and a yellow star on top.

Assembly is required and the set is sold as a single pack. The listing gives item dimensions of 35.4 x 19.1 x 9.1 cm without saying whether that is the box or the built model. The title and description say 9 and over, while the spec table gives 12 years and up, so check the age on the Amazon page. Amazon shows 4.8 out of 5 from 7,136 reviews.

What to use it for

Once built, it sits on a table as a centrepiece or on a shelf, in any room, as the listing suggests. Choosing the two-mini-tree build gives two smaller models that can go in separate places.

Care and safety

Dust the bricks with a soft dry brush. Keep the pieces and the instructions together in a box so the set can be built again next December.
