Rolife LED Book Nook Kit-Decorative Bookend Stand-3D Wooden Puzzle for Adults-Bookshelf Insert Booknook-Room Decor for Teen Girls Boys Women Men

High Quality and Gorgeous Design Provided materials: building pieces, sandpaper, things for lighting (except batteries), screwdriver with magnet at the tip and screws, instruction manual. Time working on it: As an impatient person, not once was I bored while working on this project. Something about the repetitive motion of searching for the correct labeled piece, clicking it out of its spot and fitting it into another piece was surprisingly relaxing, while keeping me engaged the whole way through. Near the end though I did get a bit frustrated with the wires and some of the finishing pieces. I'd say it took me 9-10 hours since this was my first book nook, and I was taking my time making sure the pieces were facing the right way before I secured them. Design: The attention to detail on this craft is insane and it adds so much depth to my bookshelf. They even provided a mirror to stick on the back to make it seem like a bigger space on the inside. Another thing I also really appreciated about the design of this piece is that the design kinda continued on the outside? Like the bookshelf on the front and the way the railing continues from the inside to the outer areas of it. I also love the cat and the little people in the train. I'm considering painting the cat, maybe sometime in the future. Building pieces/material: Most of the material provided is wood pieces that hold each other together like a puzzle. Some of the pieces are plastic, but at least 80% of it is wood or at least a byproduct of wood. The pieces fit together very nicely, though sometimes it was difficult to fit a piece into another one, they provide a square of sandpaper to shave the peg down a little to make it fit better. Honestly the sandpaper is pretty flimsy and thin, but its enough. A nail file does work much more effectively, but I'm glad they thought to at least include something for people who might not own a nail file. Another thing I'd also like to add is that it comes with spares for the pieces that are easy to lose, which did come in handy for me. Fragile wood?: I've seen some people talk about the wood being fragile but I think it has some bend to it rather than just immediately snapping. I was just being super careful the entire time because the pieces do feel kinda fragile, so I only managed to break two pieces. The first was the top or bottom part of the window, and the second was I broke the front of the train where the part bended. BE EXTRA CAREFUL WITH THAT PART!! Thankfully though for the window there was a bottom part with other little sections that connected to the top part; so much so that it stabilized itself, and I didn't need to do any true fixing to it. But it did provide me some difficulties as I worked with it. As far as the train, I just added tape from the inside and some sticky tack putty wedged in between the crevices, and its perfectly fine till this day. You might have to get a bit creative if you break something though. Holes not Aligned: Another thing I've also seen people talk about in these reviews is some of the holes not aligning properly, and I'm not sure if this applies to my case or if I just assembled some parts wrong, but the wall pegs didn't really align with the finished bottom chunk so it really made everything wonky. Those screws really were a lifesaver in securing everything down because it isn't perfect. Still, the top was sticking up and it didn't look great so I just placed a book on top and that worked really well and I really like the end result and how it looks on my bookshelf, so it was a win for me. Another smaller example of the holes not being perfectly aligned is on the left side of the front, the hole was so big to the point the fence couldn't fit properly. Maybe one day I'll get around to actually adding the piece, but its such a small detail that I'm okay with it not being exactly perfect. Glue: For the wood on wood surfaces, this worked pretty okay but it didn't feel the most sturdy and it doesn't dry fast at all. It sticks enough to the point where I'm not unhappy with it. Luckily I didn't have to use the glue very much. But when I had to stick the flower petals (wood) to the river (plastic) it doesn't stick at all, it slides really easily, and its especially messy. To fix it, I just used some sticky tack putty (not provided in the set) and that worked much better despite the flowers now sticking up a little. Instructions: The instructions were very clear and easy to understand for the most part. 99% of the time I understood how to put the pieces together based solely on the pictures and occasional clarification text. The only complaint is the order of some of the assembly. Sometimes it feels more productive to do the steps in a different order, but it wasn't awful. Whenever I didn't understand what the instructions were saying, theres a few videos on youtube that provide a better visual and helped me understand some parts, especially the wiring. Wiring: Shoutout to my older sister and a youtube video for helping me with this part because it was pretty frustrating. The instructions weren't clear at ALL on this part and there wasn't a great distinction between which wire was which. After I figured this part out, it works great, and the lights are still lasting with occasional use after a few months. Which is good, because I'm NOT going to replace the batteries once they die. Its just way too hard to get back there and replace them. Suggestions: If your going to buy this, I suggest having a big tabletop space that can stay undisturbed for a few days. Having a lot of space that I didn't have to clean up after I finished a part was really useful and made me want to sit down and start on it for a bit even if I was only completing 1-2 pages. Another thing I recommend is a better glue, possibly wood glue, but I didn't really need it unless I was fixing a broken piece. Lastly, for this book nook only, sticky tack putty really helped me stick the flowers to the water without being messy and difficult to work with. Conclusion: I'm rating this a 5 star because I enjoyed doing it, the build worked out for me in the end with minimal frustration, and it looks great on my bookshelf. Keep in mind this is my first book nook build, and it wasn't too difficult as long as I payed extra close attention to the way things are facing in the instructions. Anyways, I love the way it looks on my bookshelf and even though it was expensive, it was money well spend and I highly recommend it.

Loved this beautiful kit to bits. Its fairly straightforward and easy to assemble if you actually read the instructions and take your time in putting it all together. Use craf tor super glue and dont rush. People tend to want to race through this but its so fun taking your time and getting things all in place. I didnt break any parts. All parts were there. Instructiuons are SUPER clear, you need to read. You also need a gentle touch and you will be rewarded. Some snap together, others need some glue.

This review is for Sunshine Town. I had such a good time putting this together. What an adorable kit! The kit was very well thought out and well designed. At times the instructions were a little confusing, the translation was a little off. But if you take your time and really look at the diagrams and photos of the finished kit that other people have posted, you can figure it out. The only thing I did not like was the paint, it didn't cover very well. Took like four or five coats if you really wanted to cover the dark wood with an even white finish. I wish I had bought my own acrylic paint at the store. Otherwise though the kit gives you everything you need. The only thing you have to provide are the AAA batteries that power the lights. I would recommend using your own paint brush (or your own paint), but they do provide those if you want to use theirs. They even give you a little piece of sandpaper to smooth the edges when they are sharp from popping the pieces out. This kit is advanced and pretty tedious. Lots and lots of steps. I would not recommend for a child. A teenager is probably fine as long as they are detail oriented. This kit probably took me around 20-25 hours to complete over the span of a week + long weekend. Very fun way to spend some free time! I definitely plan to do another kit from this company.

The Book Nook turned out beautifully, however, I don't think the quality was as high as others I've purchased. I had several pieces that broke as I was releasing them from the backing. A little glue and we made them work but I had hoped for higher quality. However, the lights in this book nook were beautiful and easy to put together after I Googled how to do them.

Really fun to put together and a great gift for my wife who loves to read

The design is charming and well thought out. It’s impressive how much character and warmth it has in a small format.

This was my 2nd miniature, loved it! Easy to build, good instructions. I dont use the included glue tho, I prefer the bearly brand I think it's called

Bought these for Christmas gifts they are very unique and beautiful when completed. They take a lot of patience and need to buy glue and long nose tweezers. Everyone loves them
