I bought this for a last minute project required for 7th grade science for my son. He usually dislikes anything crafty. But this was a pretty easy project for him to accomplish. We got into a little difficulty at the stage where you have to insert the structural wire through the glued base pairs. A few of the base pairs became unglued and it was very difficult to reattach them. We managed to fix this problem by using toothpicks to reconnect the base-pairs, instead of glue. This was the prefect product to get us out of a tight spot when the deadline was looming. Instructions pretty easy to follow for 12 and up. Son got an A for his project. Result! Remember this product is styrofoam so is not built to last.
