Assembly was pretty easy until you get to the vines and flowers at which point it was very easy for the vase to come apart and I believe it would not stay together when you put the Lego flowers in it, so time for super glue and I recommend the Loctite super glue in the hard plastic bottle. DO NOT SQUEEZE THE BOTTLE! The glue will flow by itself and you only need a touch of it to glue the pieces together. The initial two layers are the hardest as they have to form a circle and once glued that's it! I made a mistake here and my vase is a little off from being round. The company should throw in a few extra flowers to fill the exposed holes left in the lattice as this is the hardest parts to follow on the PDF plans. Overall once assembled with glue it will hold the flowers. I do think the price could be lower and not priced as if it's lego because it's not and while I said it's not bad and If I had another one I could assemble it much better on my third try. One more thing, if you are going to put Lego flowers in it then it will need a proper base otherwise the flowers will fall through if you pick it up!
