The ability to submit ideas at any time and have them considered. Not every idea is a good one, but some that are great ideas are implemented immediately. I do not know any other free website (LEGO or otherwise) that caters to fans and subscribers like this one. Keep up the awesome work!!!! The better you make the site, the more i come here and tell other people to come to as well. Not sure how much revenue you get from the amazon link, but i even have people click through it when i am at there house and they are ordering something from Amazon. They look at me funny, but i tell them the more they do it the longer this awesome site stays free.

Over 18, United States

The fact that it is - for all intents & purposes - an utterly complete, easily searchable database. Almost anything Lego I can think up I can find. If I can't think of a set number I can think of the name. If I can't think of a name, I can think of a minifig, or a part in the set, or the year it came out, or the theme...etcetera. The cross-referencing is invaluable! I used to use Bricklink for all my browsing, but it doesn't have as much information on one page as Brickset does.

Bricklink is a terrific site on its own merits, but if it were a programming language with all knowledge Lego, Brickset would be the GUI that makes all that knowledge come to life in spectacular fashion.

The set database if you are really looking for the ONE thing. In the end, the totality of Brickset is what is absolutely unparalleled. You continual enhancements are beyond compare. My usage of the site has increased because of this - begun with just reading your new, to cataloging just sets to now cataloging my whole collection - including multiples and their purchase details.

The forums add a completely different dimension to Brickset - one that has changed the way I interact with my hobby and created bonds to other AFOLs either online or in person. The forums was one of the reasons that I finally joined a LUG.

Finally the people of Brickset and the Forums are both a great resource and fair when dealing with issues.

Many thanks.

I like going to one site and being able to find all the info I need/want.
Things I use the most are "My Sets" inventory, and looking for pictures of new/upcoming sets.
I work at the Lego Store in the Houston Galleria Mall and I refer people to your site all the time. We as employees use your site all the time. It is hard sometimes to find retired sets on the Official Lego Page. So when people come in looking for a specific set number, we go to your site.
The Official Lego Site is pretty easy to use when looking for instructions; however I still find myself coming to Brickset and clicking the link, probably out od habit.
Y'all do a great job of posting new sets pictures and numbers as soon as the info is out there on the net. Yet you respect the Lego Co. enough to take them down or not link to them if you know they were obtained illegally.

getting the heads up on the latest sets. Although I'm beginning to wish that I hadn't shown my 10 year old son Brickset - there isn't enough money in the world to keep up with his Lego obsession! But on the plus side you are child friendly - please keep that up.

This is an extraordinarily difficult question for me to answer, and it becomes more trying with every passing year because Brickset keeps improving in myriad ways. Last year, I praised the dedication of the moderators, designers, and other contributors, who continue to make this set the best place for any Lego fan on the Internet. This year, I have spent more time on the Forum, as well as employing many of the site's other unique features. Most of all, I like the site's community, which can be insistent and forward in its approach to changes, but also watchful of any potential deviation from the site's core values. Brickset would not be what it is today without its continually shifting but always wonderful, often benevolent, and intelligent base of users.

5 years ago you ran an amazing site when I first started using the internet. Today you still run an amazing site
So many!!!! postive enhancements have been implemented over the years (I bet there's stuff I don't even know about on Brickset) and yet you've stayed true to being very user friendly and visually uncluttered.

Thanks so much for your dedication.

Look forward to another five years ;-)
