Stunning Detail and Quality
Worth Every Minute
Loved it.A little bit easy really but very enjoyable
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re glad you found it enjoyable and had a great time putting it together. We hope you’ll give one of our more detailed kits a try next! 😊
Rigtig sød og sjov puslespil, både for børn og voksne.
Thank you for the lovely review! We’re so happy to hear you found it cute and fun for both kids and adults. We hope you had a wonderful time building it! 😊
My Owl Post Office BookNook arrived yesterday & I can't wait to get started on it, just need to finish the one I'm working on. From my peek inside the box I can see that once again it is a quality product that will look amazing once I finish it. I feel that my hardest decision will be which BookNook to start next - the Owl Post Office or the Magic Treasure House.
That’s a lovely choice to have! We’re glad you’re happy with the quality again, and we hope you have a wonderful time building the Owl Post Office when you’re ready. 🦉📬
I am a modeller for 30+ years building mostly technically high end models of all kinds. I also have build a few of these "doll house" inspired models, so I think I am reasonably experienced on the subject. This specific kit is very high quality and also very fun to build because of the drive mechanism in it. The whole thing fits very well together and has very few mistakes, but is certainly not for beginners. If you never build something like this and have little experience in model building in general, try something more simple first. If you do have experience, don't hesitate to buy this one. Highly recommended!!
Thank you for such a thoughtful review! It means a lot to hear this from someone with so much modelling experience. We’re glad you enjoyed the quality and the drive mechanism, and we really appreciate the recommendation. 🛠️😊
I’ve built several of these little nooks and have liked them all. This one was easy to follow but a little complicated for all of the gears to line up. Please be aware that there is an instruction error on page 54 where you are instructed to use D4x4 and it should be D6x4 but it wasn’t a big deal because you can clearly see which part to use. The only reason I took of a star was because I tested the mechanisms several times before finishing and every thing worked great. When it was all put together the front wings did not move. Not sure how the gear slip out, but again does not affect the finished product.
When I first saw this wooden puzzle, I was really intrigued. I had never done one before and I am always looking for activities to do with my 12 year old daughter. I thought this might be interesting and fun. Unfortunately, 4 months later, I'm ashamed that I haven't finished it. The kit itself is really nice. The box is very presentable as a gift. Has hefty weight LOL. It also includes adhesive. You make your own tool from the kit. You really only need an emery board to sand off the little edges. Unfortunately for my ailing eyes, little is the operative word, the pieces are so small, I frequently need my young daughter to read the labeling. the pieces themselves are well made and cut and fit well with each other. But the whole thing was quite complicated and being a beginner, it was quite difficult. The box wasn't kidding when they say 14+ because my 12 year old just didn't have the patience for it. So I feel this gift is really something that needs the right person. Someone who has a lot of patience and a certain level of maturity as well as a bit of mechanical know how. For me, I think it will have to stay in the box a bit longer until my kid grows a bit more, although I'm sure one would feel a great sense of accomplishment when it is done.
Turned out good, after a couple of set backs.(my fault) I like the bigger ones better. The instruction book was very easy to follow, but you have to follow it very close.I found out it is better to put a little glue on the bigger pieces. I have no music because I broke one of the wires trying to unplug it.When you test your wiring do not plug them in all the way,because they are very hard to unplug.
Hij is enig. Dit is de 2de. De vorige waren er onderdelen weg en het speakertje doet het niet. Dus opnieuw gekocht. Niemand kwam mij tegemoed en dus een nieuwe gekocht.
Thank you for your review and for giving NookTales another chance. We're sorry the previous one arrived with missing parts and a speaker that didn't work, and that you weren't offered a solution. Please email us at info@nooktales.com so we can look into it and help make things right.
was my first build will buy many more looks great
What a great first build — thank you for trusting us with it! 😊 We can't wait for you to try more, and we hope each one is just as fun as this.
Thank you so much in working with me to resolve my issue with this kit. You are kind and thorough.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re really glad we could help resolve the issue and appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us. 😊
Superb.Not easy,but persevered.Very well made.
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the challenge and were happy with the quality. It means a lot to us! 😊
I've done many of these DIY kits but the owl post office is the only one I've struggled with.
I've had to dismantled it four times to see where I've gone wrong , I've followed the step by step instructions via the manual and I've even gone onto utube.
I get so far and it asks you to check movement to see if everything works this is where it all goes wrong.
Lights and music works but then it just falls apart.
Im so frustrated with this one and very disappointed 😞
We’re really sorry to hear that the Owl Post Office has been such a frustrating experience, especially since you’ve completed many of our other DIY kits. We’d really love the opportunity to help you get it working properly. If you could send our customer support team a few photos or a short video showing where you’re having trouble, we’ll be happy to take a look and help you through it.
Hi. I reviewed on Facebook and cannot find the direct link to send review to you. I bought this kit and enjoyed the build but the pieces did not fit well together and often slipped apart. When I got to where the wings should move, they began to move then gears shifted and everything fell apart. I tried a couple of times to rebuild and get it going. I decided to buy it again as I thought I may have worn out the pieces.
The second kit fit together much better and I was quite pleased with it. However when I reached the wing portion, the wings began to move, then things shifted and pieces came apart. I rebuilt it but I gave up and left off the portion that would move the wings.
It is a beautiful piece. I made it in honor of my mother who collected owls. (I have done the bookstore as well.)
I am disappointed that I could not figure out how to assemble it so that the wings could move.
Thank you for sharing such a detailed review, and we’re sorry the moving wing mechanism gave you so much trouble, especially after you tried a second kit. We’re happy to hear you still enjoyed the build and that the Owl Post Office has such a special meaning in memory of your mother. If you’d like, please reach out to our support team with a few photos of the wing mechanism, and we’ll do our best to help.

I’m enjoying working on it but when I went to plug it in, I noticed that the lights aren’t working. I tried them several different outlets on the thing the two that are there and it wasn’t lighting up all the parts move. Just the lights don’t work so could you help me out? Is that the lights there are bad cause cause I don’t think it’s the motherboard.
We’re sorry to hear the lights aren’t working properly. Please reach out to our support team with your order details so we can look into this and help get it sorted for you.
