We gave this to our daughter for christmas and she hasn't stopped playing with it since! She had wanted a house for her Barbies, but as we live in a very small apartment we don't have the room for one of the typical Barbie mammoth houses, but this house is perfect! It can be arranged in whatever way works for the story she's making up at the time and when she's all done for the day the walls fit inside and it folds up to roughly 18" long and 4" wide. The furniture doesn't fit inside when it's folded up, but it can easily be tucked next to it. The house also has cute touches like the pet door in the front door and my personal favorite, the washer and dryer that really spins when you push on the detergent box on the top. On the down side, some of the furniture comes apart pretty easily (but snaps right back together easily) and every single decoration is a sticker that you have to apply (actually, I love doing stuff like that so to me that wasn't even a negative).
Final word, great bargin and just right for the Barbie lover who doesn't have the space for the huge Barbie houses.

Awesome barbie house. The accessories are great, they are small but great. I purchased for my 4 year old daughter. She plays with it all the time. I would definately reccommend.

We celebrated our family Christmas this morning and my 4 year old received this from my husband and me. She said, "It's the best dollhouse ever! My favorite!" and thanked us about a hundred times. I think it'll go over well with the intended audience (4-7 year old girls who love Barbie).

PROS:
*It comes with tons of accessories, hair drier, toothbrushes, towel, waste basket, laundry basket, plates, cups, utensils, food, laptop computer, dog, convertible bed/ottoman, small table and chairs, ... more than I can remember.

*Some of the items on the "house" are interactive and really help to encourage imaginative play. You can open the front door, washing machine, toilet lid, oven, and part of the refrigerator, .... Some of the cabinets are fixed and don't open by my daughter doesn't seem to mind.

*It folds up very compactly so it doesn't take up a ton of space when not in used. It's about 15inches wide, 4 inches deep, and 12 inches tall when folded. (Not exact measurements. I'm just estimating.)

CONS:
-It's not the sturdiest item (the shell of the house if fine, but the extra walls that you can reposition fall over occassionally especially if you're playing on carpet).

-The pieces are small and may be lost to the vacuum cleaner some day.

Bottom line, I paid $12 for this on Amazon with free shipping and it was WELL worth that price.

I bought this house for my girls (8,4 & 3) because I couldn't find a barbie house for under a $100. To my surprise and the girls, it has been an enormous amount of fun. There are 3 walls (1) that is used as the front door and back door/living area (1) that is used as a kitchen on one side and a living room type wall on the other side and (1) that has a bathroom with a toilet, shower, sink, and washer and dryer and on the other side is a bedroom scene. The washer and dryer have a button on top to push to make them spin. The shower opens and the toilet folds up and down. The refrigerator opens and it comes with a chair that opens up into a bed as well as a table and 2 chairs.

The house is sturdy and well built and folds up nicely to fit into a small space. You may want to purchase additional furniture to further the play and imagination. I haven't had any issues with it falling over even on carpet and my girls love the fact that they can rearrange the walls.

My opinion: It's a great product especially for the price!

I got this for my neice's 6th birthday. She tore into the package, and she had so much fun putting it together and playing with it the first time. She loves playing with her Barbie's and told me that it's nice that they all have a home to live in now. I would definitely recommend this toy, it is a good price for what you get.

We don't have enough space for a full-size doll house here, so I've always felt like I've deprived my 8 and 5 year-old girls of a rite of passage. When I found this playset online, I was thrilled to give it a try. I have to admit, my expectations weren't very high. How good could something plastic be?

Well, I have to say, all three of us are thrilled. It's way better than Barbie's Dream House--the one with the elevator. Barbie has moved out and pared down--she's living in a condo! It's great! First, when we opened the box, there is some adult assembly required, including putting stickers on the walls and the products--some isn't very obvious where they go. But the girls and I really had a fun time putting the house together.

Second--all the accessories this house includes is amazing. It includes food (lots of groceries) that you can store in the opening fridge. The front-loading washer and dryer actually spin. The shower door opens and the shower head comes off. You can even re-enact marital disputes when you leave the seat up on the toilet! Also, it includes tiny toothbrushes and soap (the toothbrushes are SO cute!). Also, it includes a table and chairs, so you really don't need to add additional playsets to the house.

Third, and this is the best part, when it's not in use, it folds up to the same size as the original box. All the pieces and wall fit in to the small inner wall, which is just awesome. It takes up almost no space as all--can fit easily even on a book shelf. It's great for small spaces! I can highly recommend this toy. The girls love how it folds up so small, so they even LIKE to put it away! (This is miraculous.)

Plus, I have to admit, I liked all the accessories, and I got down on the floor and played with them a while, too. I just love it. Enjoy!

I am a sixty year old grandmother who got my first Barbie at thirteen. My three daughters grew up with her and in the early '90's I was blessed with 3 grandaughters. One of my biggest delights was their love of Barbie. In 2005 I was blessed with 3 more grandaughters who are now 3 year olds. I like to keep toys for my grandkids to play with when they visit. I recently bought this house for them. Last night I took it out of the box to look at it. I was SO impressed. It's sturdy.( I was worried that it would be mostly cardboard)..has a huge amount of adorable accessories. I am so delighted with it and I can't wait for my daughters and granddaughters to come visit so I can show it off! I know we will have worlds of fun playing with it. A large shoe box held all of the accesories and furniture.
I was disapponted in the bed but I intend to design one by sewing up a mattress and pillows and a blanket so there will be sleeping space for more than one Barbie.

My 5 yr old daughter had a little people doll house but it was time for an upgrade. We have limited space so this was perfect! I LOVE how it folds all up and the 2 extra "walls" fit right inside. It's easy to fold up too as even my 2 yo can do it. It is durable too as my 2yo ripped off one of the doors and it snapped right back in without even a crack! They are enjoying playing with the accessories and being able to use the Barbies to play. The table set is perfect too! I think my favorite is the cute washer & dryer and towel. You push a button on top and the washer & dryer spin as if they were really working! How fun! Wonderful product at an affordable price! It also lets them be creative since all the walls are two sided making lots of room options!

Barbie House is durable and a lot of fun. My cousin 8 years old loves it very much.

my girls (8 & 6) have had so much fun with this barbie house. it came with so many fun items- like toothbrushes & a bed. believe it or not, my girls have had arguements over the toothbrushes! i like that it is easy to fold up and tuck away on a shelf. i think it's worth every penny!
