This was the most enjoyable build I have done in a while. I love the combination of the unique building techniques and the hidden theme details. It reminded me of why I got into the HP lego sets many years ago.
This is a fun build for an adult/display focused builder. The details are almost all internal so the true enjoyment is in the building experience rather than post-build play as many of the other sets - especially more recent HP sets - are focused on. Play is important and Lego is above all else a toy brand that inspires imagination. But as an adult builder I loved having an experience geared towards more of how I play now. I am so glad Lego caters to a variety of audiences.
I built this set and then decided to watch HP and the Chamber of Secrets where The Burrow is first shown. This set is spot on for the exterior appearance of The Burrow. The attention to detail is simply incredible.
