I bought two of these for my 13 and 8 year old daughters. They absolutely love them!!!! I think these houses are great for any age. I would enjoy one and my great grandma wants to get one for her sister who is in her 80's. My 13 year old put the two houses together with the help of her little sister in about 45 minutes. They have been creating completely different styles from one another and are both in heaven! The only thing I would recommend is not getting it for a child that is too young because they are made to handle with care. (Not really for playing) just designing....I WANT ONE!!!

I'm impressed with this toy so far. It was pretty easy to assemble (though required help from me) and once constructed looks remarkably good. It isn't the most robust of structures--I'm trying to convince my 7 year old daughter not to keep carrying it around because the cardboard walls have a tendency to pop out as the structure twists--but for static play I think it will last just fine.

There are many clever AND feasible ways to customize the house and my daughter has been busy trying them all, from stamping the fabrics to painting the furniture.

This is the worst item I have purchased for my daughter for her birthday. The instructions they provided were very vague and not helpful at all. They provided pieces to decorate the doll house but they don't explain how to go about it. Then theres pieces they give you that your not even sure what they are for (like dough and string). The assembly of this house is very poorly made and falls apart easily. The one we purchase advertised real electrically working lights but they didn't provide the means to achieve this. I would have taken this item back to the store but it was to far to travel to return it. Luckily we didn't pay to much for it because it wont be long before it will end up in the trash.
