Pros:

It has pretty good design for vehicle models. It has a lot of useful blocks such as wheels, etc. to fulfill your own imagination later.

Unlike some Lego product which uses shared parts in different advertised models, you can actually build all the advertised models shown in the cover pictures in the same time.

It's much cheaper than Lego.

Cons:

As mentioned in many other reviews. The quality of blocks are so poor that it outweighs all the pros (even for a cheap person like myself :). What a pity! I personally wouldn't buy it anymore.

I purchased the 'Best Lock' 750pc Building Site Set because it was $80 less expensive than the Lego version. What a mistake. My 6 year old has the Lego Police Station and put it together in 2 days. We have all been working on and frustrated with this building site for nearly two weeks.
The larger pieces aren't actually flat. In practicality, that means when you attempt to attach an assembled panel on the vehicle, the whole thing crumbles into 100 tiny pieces and you have to start all over. The instructions are terrible and leave out large chunks of the building process.
Unlike the Lego sets, you have to sift through all the bags to find the blocks for a certain vehicle instead of having the number on the bag correspond with the number on the instruction booklet.
I am an adult and have excellent fine motor skills. This set was frustrating for me. My six year old was in tears because he just couldn't do it. Once the vehicles were assembled by an adult (with much profanity left unuttered), he tried to play with them and pieces continually fell off.
I wish I had paid for the expensive Lego set to begin with. No matter how cheap you are, don't be tempted! It's absolutely not worth it. I would have given this product zero stars if that were an option.
