"A BrickScore of 66.6 captures legitimate expert concerns about parts value and modularity, but the 4.81 owner average across 275 ratings (99% recommend) makes clear this set delivers exactly what families with young children are looking for: an approachable, detail-packed modern house that doubles as an electric vehicle showcase."
The Family House and Electric Car holds a BrickScore of 66.6 placing it in Mixed Reviews, reflecting expert reservations about parts value (38 consensus score) and the set's less modular flexibility compared to similar City house sets. Owner reception is unusually strong for the tier: 4.81 average across 275 ratings with a 99% recommend rate on LEGO.com, a number that stands out even among well-loved sets. RacingBrick, the one expert reviewer with structured analysis, praised the modern aesthetic and functional interior detail while noting reduced reconfigurability versus comparable sets like Downtown and the Apartment Building.
Where they split: The gap between the BrickScore of 66.6 (Mixed Reviews) and the 4.81 owner average with 99% recommend rate is the most striking feature of this set's reception. Experts weighed parts value and flexibility against comparable sets and found it wanting; families buying it as a play set for young children gave it near-universal praise. The two groups are essentially evaluating different things.

"the contemporary residential architecture, as well as colours make for one of the most aesthetically-pleasing City dwellings I've ever built, but the set's incredibly high price of US$59.99 / AU$84.99 / £46.99 raises a lot of questions about housing affordability in LEGO City"
Owners consistently praise the Family House and Electric Car as a charming, detail-packed build for kids and families, with the main criticism being that it feels slightly overpriced for a City set at its piece count.
