Synthesized Verdict

"With a BrickScore of 76.4 and 4,281 owners averaging 4.8 out of 5 with a 94% recommendation rate, the Hogwarts Moment: Potions Class delivers an excellent value-to-experience ratio for Harry Potter fans, combining a genuinely clever dual-mode book format with an accessible price point that made it one of the most gifted sets in its release wave."

The Hogwarts Moment: Potions Class is a compact book-format set that accumulated 4,281 owner ratings averaging 4.8 out of 5 on Amazon and LEGO.com combined, with 94% recommending it, making it one of the most broadly endorsed sets in its sub-line. The book-opens-to-a-classroom concept was repeatedly praised for its dual identity as both a display piece (closed as a book on a shelf) and an interactive playset. Expert review data draws from LEGO.com aggregates at this tier, and owner feedback consistently highlighted the Snape-themed authenticity, the inclusion of Seamus Finnigan as a minifigure, and the accessible price point of $29.99.

What reviewers are saying

"this is one of the new classroom sets that is also a book which i think is incredibly awesome"

BrickQueen

"One of the best things about the Hogwarts Moment series is how different each set is."

The Brothers Brick

"Professor Snape's oppressive Potions dungeon varies quite significantly from other classrooms throughout Hogwarts. I am therefore expecting substantive variation between 76383 Hogwarts Moment: Potions Class and the other…"

Ecosystem

76382 Hogwarts Moment: Transfiguration Class — Despite the same Hogwarts Moment format, 76383 is almost nothing like 76382. Different characters, interior, and accessories create a whole other part of the Hogwarts school. Both sets provide a ton of playability and reasons to adore these sets.

Other Hogwarts Moment sets — I would recommend other Hogwarts Moment sets above this example, unless you are extremely keen on Slytherin. I think 76384 Hogwarts Moment: Herbology Class is my favourite between these four sets.

Other Hogwarts Moment sets — This set relies heavily upon stickers and surpasses other Hogwarts Moment sets in that regard as some include more brick-built detail. That differs from other Hogwarts Moment sets where the rooms are either reasonably open or look equally appealing from either side.
