Haven't had time to put this together but I did open the box and everything looks like nice quality. I really enjoy putting these types of things together and we have several bookshelves that this will be a great addition to. I'm excited for some down time to be able start putting this together!

This is a fun-to-assemble, high resolution, and beautiful book nook. I had a great time putting it together and it required less DIY skill than many glue/paint/fabricate sets. The pieces are well cut and high resolution printed and the result is a beautiful display piece.

This kit has most of the pieces on pressboard sheets, which you must punch out as you assemble and not all at once. Each piece has correlating numbers next to them on the sheet that must be referenced with the instructions. I haven't assembled this kit because it's a gift, but it has the basic process of hooking the pieces together at notch points. The coloring and imagery are already painted on, so there's no cutting and pasting. There are a couple sticker sheets for the many books. For height reference, the statue that sits on the second floor measures 2.8 inches tall and is made of resin. I'm not crazy about the instruction guide. It's printed on nice paper and has good diagrams, but there's no color at all. It's black lines on white backgrounds with some grey shading. At certain places, there's blue, but it's sporadic, so I don't really understand why it's there. The kit assembles in 84 steps and I'd say is best suited for ages 12 and over. Included are glue, tweezers, and a sanding board, but you must provide the 2 AAA batteries for the lighting.

Fantastic! There is so much detail in this kit! The little statue! The little books- good lord, all of the tiny books! I know it will take some time and effort to put this together… but it will look stunning when it’s done. The directions are good, not as detailed or illustrated as some book nooks I’ve put together but it will be okay. Such a great price for this too.

I love this so much. I have found that I get bored of regular puzzles lately due to adhd and was excited when I saw this. Especially that it is wooden. At first I thought it would be quick and very simple but it has taken longer than I expected. It’s not hard at all but will keep me busy for a couple weeks at least. It is something that needs to have a spot where no one will lose the pieces. I really like that when I am done it has the light kit. I am going to put it on my shelf in my reading room. The colors are really nice and the photos are clear. The pieces unattached without much hassle. You do need some glue as I a few pieces need to be glued down. I did not see this in the package. It would make a great gift to puzzle lovers or hobby builders. If I can get this one finished I am excited to do the magic one.
