I really enjoyed this set, there are different house crests to build and even a bonus one online. I was so excited to build this and put with my Harry Potter collection. It turned out amazing! It is bigger than what I expected but still good.

Im gonna be honest, I only bought the sets because I wanted to make my friend jealous, but I found out that we actually both hate Harry Potter so we built it and then gave it to my neighbour's kid. Overall the set was super easy to build, given it was my first lego set I've built I was a bit disappointed to say the least.

I have all of the other recent Harry Potter sets (except the huge Diagon Alley) and this is one of the most disappointing for me. It's the first Art set i have bought, i like the concept but i think the prices are way too much to buy casually. Really like the look of the Mickey Mouse one, but i'm more of a HP fan so had to really get this one instead, seeing as it's unlikely i will buy more than one of these. The biggest problem i have with this set is, i just don't think any of the 4 small crests actually look any good at all. The big one looks great, although i would personally have the background around the crest all black instead of all the checks and weird gold swirly bits. Would try to change the Ravenclaw section too. But there's no way i'm paying the money to get 4 anyway.
Also, i'm not keen on all the bricks being studs and not flat plates. I may be wrong, but i think all the other Art sets have flat plates, flat definitely looks much nicer. Pretty poor to use the cheaper studs, presumably because one of the colours hasn't yet been made into flat plates, just to save a bit of money.
I also don't think it's a great idea, at a time when everybody is trying to reduce plastic waste, to make people buy 4 sets to build the large crest thus ending up with probably thousands of unused pieces. Not to mention all the unnecessary packaging for 4 sets, when you could just sell a larger set seperately. All at the same time as getting publicity for developing recycled bricks. Seems a very strange thing to be doing.

Building it was not too fun. Almost got me thinking it's like doing an MRI scan - first all you hear is noise, then you start to get beat out of it. Same happened here - first hour I couldn't believe what I dragged myself into, but after an hour it almost got interesting. Also, I am pretty experienced builder, but I couldn't finish it in the podcast time frame. Maybe you'd consider adding a HP soundtrack or something, so it could have some background music.
