While I value all posted opinions of this product I strongly disagree with the notion that this product is dumb. For anyone who has waited many long years and not purchased any of the movies until now, or anyone who was hooked later in the series, this set is a real value. All the released movies are bundled neatly together and they don’t consume much space in my movie library because of the slim packaging.
This set is certainly not for the collector as there is no bonus material whatsoever. This is fine for us as we generally never watch the second disc anyway. If you have been waiting to buy or are new to the series and you don’t mind the lack of bonus material this set really makes it easy to start your collection.
If this does not describe what you are looking for then I suggest you do as the other reviewers have suggested and look elsewhere or wait till the complete set releases in several years. For what this product is however (all current movies/no frills), this is a great set.

This is a great little set for those who only need the films. There are no special features or making of clips on any of the dvds.

UPDATE: The price of Harry Potter Years 1-5 was raised back up to $44.99, which is questionable, but means that your best value is this set, Harry Potter Years 1-6. You’re getting all six released Harry Potter films at a very low cost, in packaging that is going to save you space on your shelf. A great gift for any Harry Potter fan who doesn’t have the films yet, or only has one or two.
Harry Potter Years 1-5 can be purchased for $26.49 and Half-Blood Prince can be purchased seperately for $9.99. That’s a grand total of $36.48 for the same films in this gift set (Years 1-6), except it wont cost you $44.99. That’s roughly a $8.00 savings if you don’t buy this set.

Like most here, my wife and I had seen all these Harry Potter movies in the theater. Since then my wife read the books and wanted to see the movies again. So I bought them for her as a gift. She was very happy to get them and we decided to watch them one a night for a week. So we settled in for a week of entertainment.
You can’t imagine how irritating it is to expect to see something you know happens – that never happens. I.e., it has been deleted! Scenes have been deleted from several of the movies in this set. It was a very irritating experience.
This has happened before with DVDs I have purchased and it is extremely infuriating. Why do they do this? They should at least have the courtesy to tell you that scenes that were in the theatrical release are deleted from the DVDs. That way you at least know what you are getting and can decide to buy or not. By deleting scenes on the sly, I believe they are selling an inferior product and, that way, feel they are putting something over on us dump consumers.
I cannot rate this set more than one star because I feel I have been cheated.

The set contains 7 blu-ray discs in 6 cases. The seventh disc, entitled “Disc 2 Special Features” is inside the “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” case. The movies themselves are in 1080p HD 16×9. Audio is Dolby TrueHD: 5.1. The special features disk appears to be full screen, still HD (near as I can tell).
Special Features Disc Include:
“Close-Up with the Cast of Harry Potter” — A series of short videos that cover topics ranging from editing, owl training, special effects, makeup, costume design, artwork and more behind the scene material.
“One-Minute Drills” — Challenges cast member to describe their character roles in the first 6 films in 60 seconds
“First Footage from harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows” — Brief introduction from producer and director with behind the scene footage. As well as a theatrical style preview.
” J. K. Rowling: A Year in the Life” — Documentary style look at J.K. Rowling’s work on the Harry Potter series.
“What’s on your mind?” — An eclectic Q&A session between Tom Felton (Draco) and the cast of Harry Potter.
“The Wizarding World of Harry Potter-Sneak Peek” — Universal Orland Resort in Florida preview of new Harry Potter themed area.
“Additional Footage”: 8 additional movie scenes
The box set itself, measures approximately (H x W x D) 6.875″ x 1.5″ x 5.3125″. Each disc case measures approximately (H x W x D) 6.75″ x 0.25″ x 5.3125″. These are ultra thin cases, not the standard blu-ray cases.
Box set price (as of the date of this review) was less then I could purchase the blu-rays for individually (either online or at mortar-and -brick retailer.)
