Synthesized Verdict

"With a BrickScore of 72.8 and owner ratings of 4.61/5 across 394 buyers, the Heartlake Private Jet earns its Recommended tier as a fun, durable, play-focused Friends set at an accessible price point, though buyers who prioritize parts value or design accuracy will notice the tradeoffs."

The Heartlake Private Jet (41100) is a solidly playable Friends set praised for its detailed, fully accessible interior, integrated airport security checkpoint, and compact footprint that makes it more durable and affordable than the larger Friends airport. Expert reviews are broadly positive on playability but note design proportions (undersized tail fin, exposed studs on fuselage) and a light piece count for the $29.99 price. Owners rate it 4.61/5 across 394 ratings, with all LEGO.com reviewers recommending it, aligning closely with the expert consensus.

Where they split: There is a mild expert split on tone: JANG gave a positive buy recommendation focusing on playability and value relative to the larger airport set; Brickset's review was more measured (verdict 65, 'wait') pointing to the proportional design issues and light parts count. Both agreed on playability strengths. Owner ratings (4.61/5) align closer to JANG's positive take than to Brickset's cautious one.

What reviewers are saying

"wings those are wedge plates for the most part and they go together nicely and I think they look pretty nice"

JANG's LEGO Reviews

"I love LEGO vehicles, so when I saw the private jet and the airport, I knew I would be checking both of them out"

Brickset Reviews

Ecosystem

Heart Lake City Airport (large passenger jet) — JANG strongly prefers the private jet set; it costs significantly less while including only one fewer mini doll and remaining compact and easier to store. The reviewer calls it 'a much much better deal' than the large airport set.

41109 Airport — The larger 41109 has a bigger tail fin but is significantly more expensive; this set is the smaller, budget option

City airline sets (e.g., 60022) — City sets typically release planes alongside airports in the same wave; this is not unusual
