Recommendation: yes 5 / 5 from 9 reviews

There are so many awesome things about this set.. The accessories The colours The minifigures The animals (cat and dragon) The moving stairs, the shakey bridge, the trap door, the escape from the jail cell, etc The catapult The only thing I would say is that $99 seems a bit much for the actual size of this set. There is a lot packed in here but it's actually quite small. $70-$80 seems more reasonable for the Size. It's a very good set though. Very fun to play with.

Recommendation: yes 10 / 10 by Rusty

What can I say I really enjoyed building this set and loved watching the hours of enjoyment my daughter and son got from playing with it. LEGO have done a great job capturing the LEGO Elves theme and lots of playability elements within the build. The colour scheme is garish, but works well with Ragana's story and magic. If all else fails and my children lose interest, just think of all the wonderful elements that can be incorporated into future MOCs!

Recommendation: meh 4.5 / 5 from 97 reviews

We love the Elves line. I love the colors, the attention to construction so things don't just fall apart in play, the neat little surprises like trap doors, and the tiny details. My girls love building structures and then using structures for adventures - and the Elves line is perfect for that. Ragana's castle has served as both the home to a nice wizard elf as well as a evil queen. The trap door + jail has housed daring heroes as well as coveted treasures. We love the "grand entrance" of the front door, which slides the guest through the door. My girls cracked up at the chocolate bar on the couch. They love to "brew potions" in the potion area. And my 4 year old adores the little cat.The instruction booklet is clear, like all lego instructions. My 7 year old is able to build the sets entirely on her own, but she has a very long attention span. My 4 year old needs our assistance but we enjoy building it anyway :)

Recommendation: meh 4.5 / 5

This is a very large and very cool construction set with lots of detail, moving parts, and hidden surprises that really help kids play out the good versus evil storyline of LEGO Elves. It's a fun new extension of the original LEGO Elves storyline, and fans of LEGO Elves will enjoy returning to Elvendale with Emily Jones to save the dragons from the elf witch.

It's a step up from last year's castle, I think, which I found a little one-dimensional and only really had the portal as a playfeature (impressive as it was). Expensive, but highly recommended!
