This was my first Lego set ever. As a huge Harry Potter fan, it was fun to build small scenes from the books/movies and watch a mini version of Hogwarts come to life. I'm now a huge Lego lover and I'm excited to continue building my collection

Would be difficult for those who do not follow step. This was my first purchase and was easy for me. that is because I am a nerd and I follow all the instructions step by step.

It was a fun and easy build. It was for my 11 year old daughter who has only built one other Lego set in her life. She had no problems and zero frustration.

Grandson liked it.

I did not like how you have to build the base as you progress thru the set. It makes it very unstable. About half way you start building the actual castle which is fine because I did like seeing all of the recreated movie scenes. The problem is, since it does not have a stable base when you try to push pieces on top the bottom falls apart and when you get pretty far into a set and this happens it can become aggravating to try and find the spot in the instructions to fix the part that messes up.

I preordered this set prior to its official release. I was super excited for a scaled down version of Hogwarts as I simply did not have the room to display the full-sized castle set. While I look forward to seeing the finished product, my building has been halted due to a number of missing pieces. Mt first missing piece came in bag 9 and unfortunately you don't know the pieces are missing until you find out the hard way mid build. That said, Lego customer service has been working with me to identify and send me any missing pieces. A great set marred by some unfortunate issues. Build on lego fans!

I loved it! I'm generally a huge fan of micro scale builds, especially architecture and this definitely fits the bill for that style of set. I enjoyed all the Easter eggs that were included from the first 4 books/movies. I loved that there were no stickers, all pieces were printed on which made the build experience much better! Even though there were a lot of small parts (ie 1x1/1x2 studs, tiles, plates and bricks) this was made up for with the use of sweet techniques like snot plates to add reinforced structural integrity to the overall build and look. It included one minifigure I didn't know existed so that was fun to read and learn about! Overall fun build and well worth the price!

Great build, love it. It was such a fun experiance

I loved the details they put into the set. Worth the money

OMG so fun to build the best for putting on shelfs
