My kids love their play house, however it is a bit small to comfortably fit both inside. It is also not very tall. A 4 yo will have trouble fitting!

This is a really nice playhouse, but it is quite small. The front porch has a little yellow bench and a doorbell (very cute). Inside there is a small shelf under the left window and a small sink and stove under the right window. There are closeable shutters on the right window, but no shutters on the front, left or rear windows. The door is only a half door on the bottom. There is a skylight and an electric phone on the inside.

My daughter is a normal sized 3 year old and she and a friend can play on the inside without much room to move around.

There is no floor, so I constructed a floor out of some pressure treated 4x4 beams (laid out as joysts) with some sheathing laid over the top. This created a nice flat, level platform. I then used some screws to toe nail the four corners of the house to the platform. It worked out well. It would survive a hurricane.

Construction of the playhouse is very easy. It took much less than an hour - maybe 35 minutes or so. A second set of hands is useful - but not necessary - to get the roof in place. The only necessary tool is a phillips screwdriver, but I would recommend a power driver.

There is a sheet of decals, but they looked a bit tacky and we didn't put them on. They look like they would fall off anyway.

I really wish the inside were a bit bigger. The kids in the photo are deceivingly small. There should be shutters on all of the windows and the dutch door should have a top.

Delivery (through a freight company) was very easy - they called to make a drop off appointment and actually were willing to deliver the 80 lb box to a spot we designated in the backyard.

This is a very cute and fun house for my grandson to play in.

Glad I bought it! He is 5 now and still plays in it.

I bought this house for my 4 year old daughter for her birthday. My mother and I assembled this house together. There were times it was a bit tricky, we ended up having to take things apart and redo. My mom also ended up into some very tricky positions to assemble this. It took us an hour and a half to assemble the house.

My daughter LOVES playing in this house. She will play out there for hours. It has been very sturdy and I believe we will have it for many years. The labels peeled off fairly quickly, but they are just decorative, and not necessary for the product to be used. We keep it outside and it has been a very good purchase.

Hard to get them out of it. It is well constructed - was easy to assemble and delivery was flawless

I bought this playhouse for my 3 year old Grand-daughter and she loves it. I like it because it was one of a few that was mostly closed in. A bit pricey but the cheaper ones looked just that, cheap. She loves the doorbell, the mail slot and the phone. I found the best price for this playhouse on Amazon and the free shipping helped alot too. My son said it was easy to assemble.

I bought this house for my nieces, and they absolutely love it. It's durable and very cute. The doorbell is a bit hit.

I would highly recommend purchasing this playhouse.
