Frequently Asked Questions
How big is it, really?
When assembled, it measures about 23 x 18 x 11 cm, with the longest side measuring 23 cm. In photos, Book Nooks usually look bigger than they actually are. Before ordering, quickly check to make sure your shelf has at least 23 cm of free space.
Where does the electricity for the lights come from?
The LED lighting runs on two AAA batteries (type LR03). The batteries are not included in the set; you'll need to purchase them separately. You don't need a nearby outlet for this.
What scene am I setting up here?
You're recreating the moment on Platform 9¾ when Harry steps through the wall into the magical world. This creates a transition from everyday life to Hogwarts right there among your books.
Can I do this even without any experience?
This set is rated Level 3 out of 5, which means it's suitable for casual hobbyists. You'll assemble the 238 pieces step by step using the illustrated instructions in German and English included in the box. Plan on spending about two to five hours on it—you don't have to finish it all at once.
Do I need glue or tools?
You'll need wood glue for the fine details; it's not included in the set. Standard wood glue from a craft store will do. No special tools are required, but if you'd like, you can add our tool kit—which includes a utility knife, file, ruler, and mini hammer—as an accessory.
What if a part is missing or breaks?
Our spare parts service is free: Just tell us which part you need, and we'll send it to you as soon as possible. Support is available weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with an average response time of about 30 minutes. Shipped from Berlin · Free shipping on orders of €35 or more.
