NOT cheaply made, July 12, 2006
My 6 year old absolutely adores these! After 7 months she is still playing with her pets. My one year old has not broken any of the bobble heads, despite some effort.

heya amazon shoppers and readers,
i got this toy a few months ago, and i like to have a good play with it before i have something to say. i remember seeing it on tv, and i had to have it. i saved my money for quite a while to get it. i was so excited when i opened it! i love that you can weigh your pet, and each pet has a differnt weight! i have fourty three pets, and if you have that many, not only would they get sick, but you need a place to keep them! thanks to the salon, the diner, the playhouse, the playground and this playset, i finally don't struggle with putting away my pets!!! the cute kitty is hungry, and when you feed her, and put her on her bed, she makes slurping noises and her tongue sticks out, also her head moves up and down!!! the gecko looks like he has chicken pocks, and it takes a long time to make them go away, and then in five seconds, they come back!!!! the doggie looks like she has a broken leg, and you need to put a cast on her, and a cone around her neck so she doesn't nibble off the cast! the x-ray thingy is cute too, because when you place a pet on the paw print, and move the flower thing, the pet moves, and its x-ray pops up! there's also a bandaid sheet of stickers to cover those wounds on your pets! this cute playset has a handle, so you can take it with you everywhere to look after all the pets in town!
this portable playset comes with:
A Cute Kitty!
A Cute Puppy!
A Cute Gecko!
A Bed
A X-Ray Table
A Sheet Of Stickers
A Milk Bottle
A Clipboard
A drawer
A Bottle Of Coagh Sirup
A Flue Shot Thingy
A Cast
A Cone
And A Basket For The Weighing Thing.
I really like this playset, and the three pets included, and a cute kitty and pram i bought are my favorite pets!
don't ignore your sick pets, get the get better centre and help them get back on their paws!

Cute choice if you already have other playsets., August 6, 2007
Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars
My daughters (5 & 7) love the Littlest Pet Shop toys. We selected this as my younger daughter's first playset (she already had some pets), but I wish we had purchased the Little Lovin Pet Playhouse (same price) instead.
The Get Better Center is a small doctor's office. The regular version comes with a gecko, dog and magic motion kitty, and should cost about $20. There is now a version with bonus pets that runs for $25, but we have the original version. The office comes with an x-ray machine that works with the magnets in the pets, a scale and other small accessories, including a removeable cast and cone for the dog. The colors are bright - pink, orange, chartreuse, turquoise and purple. There are 2 built in seats, and a space for a drawer (included).
What I wished I had understood better was that this set contains a Magic Motion Cat. Magic Motion pets retail for $10, and consist of a pet with a bed (batteries not included) and a bottle. You put the pet in the bed, hold the bottle up to its mouth, and (in this case) the cat "licks" the bottle. My daughter isn't that interested in this feature, and just uses the cat like her many other, less expensive, pets.
This playset is quite small, as half the price is accounted for with the magic motion pet. When open (not including the door) the GBC measures just 13 1/2 inches by 6 1/2 inches. In contrast, the Little Lovin Pet Playhouse also costs $20, comes with 2 pets and is a much larger building with more to do.
The overall quality of the Get Better Center is fine, but our door comes off rather frequently, and I have to put it back on. The gecko has a feature where his spots fade when you hold him in your hand, and then return when you place him under the "sunlamp". The gecko is very cute, and my daughter loves him, but the spots don't really do what they are supposed to. These are minor problems, though.
Bottom line - while the Get Better Center does come with cute accessories and could be perfect for a budding vet, I think you should only buy it if you already have the Little Lovin Playhouse or the Biggest Little Petshop, or if your child really values the magic motion pets.
