Gringotts is amazing piece. It’s a masterpiece to be displayed and super exciting to all ages! Still in the process of building but totally in love with it!
I never thought LEGO could come out with a Harry Potter set that I enjoyed more than the Icons set. Congrats, this certainly tied! Clever bonus that it works with the Diagon Alley set. I wasn’t overly surprised with the amount of stickers involved, not a major disappointment there like others. Given the weight of the set I opted to put it on top of a rotating plate typically used for a cake, so you can easily rotate the display to play or show it to a family member or friend. This worked like a charm for the lighthouse set as well.
I have a concern regarding 76417 Harry Potter gringotts bank. There is to my belief an error in the building of the 2nd floor windows. I took apart and rebuilt 4 times the windows on page 289 book 3 to have it turn out the same way. It can’t be done to completion. Then on page 5 again built and rebuilt and it can’t be done as I see no where where the bottom piece under the windows is put in or supplied. Very disappointing. If I’m in error fine I can deal with that, but I truly believe this is not correct. Again another window in last book incorrect. These windows took the enjoyment of building this. I so enjoyed the bottom half. I couldn’t wait to finally finish this piece. Such a great piece but brought me no desire to want to do another piece for awhile. Thankyou for your time and letting me vent. In a way it’s kind of cured me of wanting to build more Lego sets for awhile, maybe read for awhile LOL.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for letting us know about the discrepancies that caused you trouble. We'd love to get a little more information so we can report it clearly. Feel free to give us a call or chat at LEGO.build/Service-BV at your convenience.
Very intricate model. Not for kids by any stretch. We're (wife and I) almost at the end of book 2 of 4, and we're very impressed with the design and thought put into this model.
This the most imaginative LEGO set I’ve built. So much fun. I love that there are two levels — above ground and below — and that you can easily separate the two. Well done!
