Good value for what you  get.  Pieces seem strong and durable, but 2 or 3 of them are slightly damaged.  It's like corners were broken off on original cut or something, but they're all smooth and don't really affect the logs or the building fun.  If I could rate 4 1/2 stars I'd have done that because the "damage" really isn't much, but still warrants a non 5-star rating.  Other than that, they're just like the classic lincoln logs so no big surprises.  Value seems really good to me, compared with other logs and also compared with what you'd get for this price when buying some legos.
