Summary: Excellent Kit
Comment: I would recommend this kit to anyone who is taking organic chemistry. I found it very useful in learning organic chemistry mechanisms and structures. The high price is reflected in the high quality of the product!
In other reviews there were a couple of complaints about the kit not being realistic. However, the bond stiffness and design are surprisingly realistic (molecules aren't all that flimsy). The kit is perfect for create virtually any small organic molecule. It is excellent for seeing the difference between a chair and boat conformation, provided that it is put together appropriately. (My organic book and the directions were useful in arriving at the right conformation when I had problems.) The kit may just take a little bit of time to get used to, but it definitely is worth the work and time to see molecules in 3-D!

Summary: Does hardly work
Comment: The pins representing the bonds hardly fit the atoms. They don't allow for any rotation around the bond axis (exept by deforming the pin and introducing awkward stress in the molecule. Almost impossible to build a good model involving a ring structure.
There is a special tool to get the pins out. Don't lose it.
Rating: 4
Summary: Helpfull but not that helpfull
Comment: This kit is a good learning tool for Organic Chemistry it really helps you understand the chapters on stereochemistry a bit better but they can confuse you a bit as well. The only set back is that they are not that flexible and will not help you when you study the different ring comformations I mean you really have to have a huge imagination to tell the difference between a chair conformation or a boat conformation with these models.
