There are gaps between the plastic frame and the housing. You even can see them on some pictures in lots of reviews.
For one, I'm a bit worried about dust behind the display. And last but not least I really get annoyed by flaws like that, constantly have to look at those flaws and can't enjoy the reading.
Build quality of Nook HD+ on the other hand, surprisingly enough, is fine.
I agree -- the HD+ build feels solid like that of the Tablet, whereas the HD build feels cheap although it's probably not much worse than the Google Nexus 7. The one thing I don't like about the HD+ is its use of a proprietary USB cable.
