Pleygo – the first rental service for LEGO sets. This is a company that was created by parents for parents to save money and help kids develop cognitive skills through educational play time. Think of it as a “Netflix” type service for LEGO’s.
With today’s technology, trying to cut back on your kid’s screen time can be a daunting task. That’s where Pleygo comes in.
I’ll be honest, I was a little skeptical at first about Pleygo. I didn’t know if my boys would like building the sets and then having to send them back. I loved the concept because personally, everywhere I turn we have LEGO’s . The idea of building it, then taking it apart and sending it back once they were done playing with it is genius. Ends up, they LOVE it! We’ve gone through 2 sets now and they keep asking when the next one will arrive.
All you have to do is fill out a Wish List of your favorite LEGO sets at Pleygo.com and the fun gets delivered to your door. When you’re done, send it back, and another LEGO set will be on its way – always eco-sanitized, and always free shipping. This is a great way to have hours of play time with your children, without the need of TV or tablets.
There are three different options you can subscribe to. Fan ($15 a month), Super Fan ($25 a month), and Mega Fan ($39 a month). The Fan level gets you small sets, under 250 pieces. SuperFans can rent small, medium or large set–up to 500 pieces. MegaFans can access all the sets Pleygo stocks, including massive, thousands of pieces sets.
The LEGO’s are cleaned and sanitized, there is FREE shipping both ways, if you lose a piece, no worries, they’ll replace for FREE, and you get a FREE month trial when you first begin your subscription. Watch this short video to learn a little more about Pleygo and how it works from my boys.
Today, I’m so excited to be giving away a 6 Month Super Fan Membership to Pleygo! Whether you have boys or girls in your household, there is something for each at Pleygo. Use the widget below to enter. Must be a US resident. This giveaway will end Friday, January 24th at 12:01 am CST.
(Pleygo gave us a free trial service at Super Fan level for this review. All opinions are my own)
What a great concept! My kids would love this!
I cannot believe I didn’t already know about this. This is amazing.
THis looks great! I think it’d be fun to use as an incentive in my classroom, as well!
This looks awesome! My boys love lego!
This is awesome! My daughters love playing with Legos!
What an amazing way to keep my kids toys new and fresh and not clutter my house! They should do this with other toys! Can’t wait to get my membership going!
Would love to WIN! My son LOVEs Legos! Thank you.
I think my girls would love it
Seriously awesome!!! I love that it’s much cheaper than buying all those sets… 🙂
Love the economical way to try a variety of sets!
Its great they can learn a variety of lego patterns without us having to constantly buy more!
Love this! Just getting my kindergartner into legos!!!
I love that it’s not expensive and it’s still a lot of fun!
Oh I’ve never heard of this….how neat! I love that there are different pay scales and different options if you have younger or older kids. very cool
This Looks Amazing. Probably One Of The Coolest Ideas Ive Seen In A While.
I love that my boys would be able to build so many different Lego sets without having to shell out all that money! I have 3 boys who all love Lego and it gets expensive!
I like that there is free shipping and a great selection!
Looks like an awesome service.
Thank you so much for offering this giveaway! My boys would LOVE a membership to Pleygo!
Concept is great but I don’t think they can keep up with the business. All reviews show horrible customer service. They ship out the cheapest, non-coolest, lego’s on your wishlist. I’ve been waiting for a week for my 3rd set to ship out. The first 2 sets were the lowest on my wishlist. I just cancelled my membership. Maybe if they start getting good reviews again I’ll give it another try.
What an interesting idea! Makes you wonder a bit about cleanliness, but I would consider doing it.

I like the idea of my son having something to look forward to in the mail! As a mom, I LOVE that you can pick these up & send them away!
My letter to Pleygo:
When I first came across your website I was so excited. The idea is wonderful. I read a LOT of reviews before signing up, most of which said the shipping is so slow, it is not worth it at all. For the cost of a membership, when you only get 1 set a month, you can just BUY a set. There were many many complaints online, from your customers. But then there were replies from your company saying they had fixed some shipping issues and things were being shipped faster. SO, I decided I would do the one month free trial and see if what you advertise was for real. I figured if I got at least 2 of the bigger, nicer sets and was able to send them back within the month, we would keep doing it for a few months until we got busy with summer. (The “free” trial was for the more expensive upgraded membership that should include the big sets). WELL, as per all the bad reviews online, your company DID NOT deliver. We got ONE little set during the WHOLE month. My ONE MONTH “FREE” trial ends Tomorrow and we still have not gotten another set. So I got online today, to make sure I canceled my “FREE” trial membership BEFORE the one month date, so I wouldn’t get billed AS PROMISED in the information I read before signing up. I looked at my account and there was a set just shipped, it will probably arrive tomorrow, or more likely, the day after. So when I tried to cancel, it said I can only cancel without being billed for the month, IF I have all sets sent back by YESTERDAY. How is that even possible, when you don’t send out sets until the day before the CUT OFF date for billing? Seems to me like that was your plan all along. I didn’t want to believe all the bad reviews given to your company. But now mine will be added to them. I paid $25 for a “free” month trial and got one little set that I found online for $10. Definitely a huge disappointment in your company. Not too mention, it’s always frustrating to not be able to actually call someone and talk to them to try and get a “refund” on a “free” trial. I am canceling my membership before my trial date ends tomorrow, but apparently your company is still going to charge me $25 for the one little set we managed to get during the whole month. What a scam. I want my money back! I am also worried about a company like this now having access to my credit card information.
Terrible service. Will never use again. Changed their name to Pley to avoid people finding the negative reviews! Interesting that the old site “Pleygo” now goes to this page.
