This model was by far the most difficult to with . (I have built 20+) Not because it was difficult to assemble, but it was SO difficult to separate the parts from the boards. I think I spent more time cutting and pressing the parts from the boards without damage, than assembling the model itself. Even then it happened time and time again that the upper ply of the part splintered off. The material (plywood) seems to be very dry and flaky. The assembled model works fine and is Fun to play with.

This is the very first time I've tackled this type of project, and honestly, I was so afraid of failing that it took me two years to even start! In the end, the instructions are quite clear. I had a little trouble at the end, and that's probably why the scoreboard unfortunately doesn't work. I advise you to follow the instructions to the letter, especially when it recommends waxing or filing the piece! The finished product is superb; I'm thrilled. The pinball machine works quite well. If you're used to doing 3D puzzles and are also a Harry Potter fan, don't hesitate!

My grandson loves it, loves it. He asked me to look for more Harry Potter for Christmas. Like Aragon the monstrous giant very Big Spider / Tarantula or the house Harry was born at with the grave yard and streets.. Basically more Harry Potter. We are running out of Harry Potter items to buy. My grandson is only ten years old but did well with having two grandfathers around when he got stuck. Thanks for Harry Potter. Need dragons also! More dragons like two headed ones.

Very nice functional model. I'm surprised by the accuracy of the laser cuts. Assembly is a bit of a challenge. The counter gave me gray hairs; it took a long time to get it working properly and displaying the correct reading. But now it's working perfectly. I will definitely recommend UGEARS.

About a fourth of the way through the construction of this great model and only my second wood model, so I am a novice. So far the most difficult aspect and time consuming part is removal of the components from the wood templates. The provided wooden tool is really of no help. I have a box of various tools I purchased through Amazon with files, knife, tweezers, clippers, extractors, and a metal ruler. In addition, I make a great use of needle nose and channel lock pliers! The files are perfect for sanding you can't possibly do with a piece of sand paper. Another tip is to use birthday candles for waxing as they fit into holes and small places. I have also found that I have to do a little sanding on many of the tenons to get them to fit into the mortises with less difficulty. Overall I am enjoying the construction of this model.

LOVE IT!!! It didn't take that long and even though it was my fifth model, it was the most interesting. It took me some time to fix some parts that my enormous stupidity managed to break, but now everythink looks and works perfectly.

Great, I just finished it! Luckily it's not my first model, because you do need some experience, if only to understand the instructions. The assembly isn't very simple, but once it's done, everything works.
