5.0 out of 5 stars
Small but can be adapted as any classroom, December 22, 2001
Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars
In this set you get Harry and Hedwig in a classroom setting. The chalkboard doesn't work or anything but it really sets the scene. There are three desks and chairs as well as a cauldron. The best feature is the Mirror of Erised. Yes, it also comes with the Quirrel set but this one has a different image. Lego Harry and pictures of his parents in Lego form! Very cute. The set, like Diagon Alley and Gryffindor house has a dayglow orange theme which I don't understand but what you can do is act scenes out in these sets instead of cramming stories inside the all too cramped castle rooms. Lots of extra little pieces and really quite fun. Educational as all legos are and very durable. Kids may want help setting up the Mirror so that they don't stick the image on wrongly.

Little pieces, yet big fun., November 18, 2001
Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars
I love Legos and Harry Potter as much as my kids. We bought this set to play with until Santa completes our collection at Christmas. It has very tiny pieces that are more easily placed by small hands, but the set is very cute. Harry can sit at one of the 3 desks in a classroom that can be rearranged however you like. This is a must-have if you plan to get all of the HP Legos. It contains the "Mirror of Erised" (fans know the importance of this piece) I would recommend this toy to any fan of Harry Potter. If I didn't have kids, I'd get this set and display it.

Hogwarts Classrooms---73 pcs---#4721, March 22, 2002
Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars
This set is one of the less expensive sets in the Harry Potter line. It is really cool, but it is quite small. It has 73 pieces of colorful shapes, objects, cauldron, books, keys, a trevor toad piece, a Harry figure, desks with chairs, a chalkboard, and the Mirror of Erised in an orange color. Orange? The mirror allows you to put a sticker of Harry and his parents in lego form on a clear background piece. Now, the mirror is way different compared to the way they made it on the Final Challenge set! And as for the colors, ugh! What was lego thinking! I don't remember seeing pink, orange, and other neon colors in the movie, or reading about them in the books! This set, Diagon Alley shops, and House of Gryffindor have this color scheme on them. Hogwarts isn't a very colorful place in my opinion. Well, it is also hard to have a classroom with three desks, and a very small space! The backdrop for two rooms that it comes with makes up for the small set. I don't know if this set is hard to find, but I have only seen two in my life. I saw one at Wal-mart, then I ordered one from a website, and got mine. No store in my city sells this set, and only Toysrus in my city sells Diagon Alley shops, and House of Gryffindor. I have a feeling these sets are a bit rare. Maybe.
