5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect little cottage..., October 3, 2004

I have two daughters, ages 2 and 4 and they love playing house, having tea party's with the table and two seats included in the cottage, and talking on the phone (also included). Love how this playhouse has a floor. Easy to assemble (recommend an electric drill). You definitely can't beat the price. It is smaller than the other playhouses and would be difficult for an adult to sit in there. But the large windows make peaking in a breeze.

This house has all the features of the more expensive houses, for a better price. It was easy to put together (although the faucet doesn't connect to the sink as well as I'd like it to). The floor is wonderful, and after it rains or we hose it down, it drains very well-the only place any water collects is the sink and one of the seats. Don't leave the cordless phone in the house if it's outside though, ours got waterlogged and wouldn't stop ringing, I had to pull the batteries out and let it dry out again. The house isn't too big, no more than 2 kids can play very comfortably, but that wasn't a big deal for us. My son has been playing in it since he could cruise around, loves opening the door and shutters.

This review is from: Neat & Tidy Cottage (Toy)

We bought this house for our son's first birthday and he's having a blast exploring every inch of it. He loves to "talk" on the phone, open and close the shutters, and press the button on the faucet. It's keeping him very busy, and because it has a floor we've decided to keep it inside for now. That square patch of carpet won't get worn out from him constantly walking around in it.

The house was easy to put together. My husband had it set up in less than 30 minutes. As for the quality, I'd say it's excellent. I don't think a house like this was meant for big kids to play in, so it probably wouldn't hold up if your child is too old or heavy for their age. But it should be just fine for the average sized 1-4 year old, even a smaller 5 year old. Overall we're very happy with this purchase.
