Product Description

Editorial Review

Where would you think someone like Strawberry Shortcake would live? In a condo in the city? This strawberry scented home, which opens to reveal its contents, is the preferred residence of everyone's favorite fruit themed cartoon heroine. It features a turning closet, a grandfather clock that chimes, a ringing doorbell, a rocking chair, lamp, and a small television set. No dolls are included here making it more of an accessory for a fan of Ms. Shortcake who already has a collection of thematic products. Still, since there are so many cozy accoutrements of home, one could easily introduce existing dolls or even action figures into the Strawberry Shortcake landscape, even if one has no Strawberry Shortcake dolls available. Let Luke Skywalker pick out some outfits in the closet, give Barbie a chance to get away from her own dream house for the weekend. The possibilities are endless. --Charlie Williams

Purchased this for my three year old's birthday. The items that come with it are okay, although the packaging is very misleading (have to look at small print to see it doesn't come with furniture shown on box).

It is a decent size, and you can toss a lot of SSC stuff in there and close it up... BUT... the stickers that come with it are hard to put on correctly, the sides are concave (it is a strawberry after all!) and getting the stickers on without puckering is problematic. Also, since the toy is not opaque, the stickers show through from the inside to the outside. Not attractive at all.

It is cute, and my daughter loves it. (...)

Though my 3 1/2 year old loves playing with the strawberry house, we were both disappointed when we first received it. It comes with very little furniture, only a chair, table, tv, closet, and clock. Additional furniture pieces are, at this point, impossible to find. Plus, they advertise that you can close it up and take it anywhere. Well, there is very little room inside. By the time you put the furniture it comes with inside and the doll you have a hard time closing it up. If you want to take it somewhere and have additional furniture or dolls plan on taking a bag along. It is adorable, but felt we should have gotten more for the money.

I recently brought this house for my 2 1/2 year old that is crazy over Strawberry Shortcake. It is a really cute house with plenty to keep her busy for hours and she loves the fact that she can take it and her dolls with her when we go somewhere. I was disappointed that it is impossible to get any of the extra furniture that is shown on the back of the box and I am not paying $60 and up for what they are going a set on eBay when they sold for just $17.00 a set in the stores. It is a real shame what they did to the new dolls that came out made by Playmate this year. They do not even look like the Strawberry Shortcake we have all grown to love over the years. This house is worth the money if you already have the dolls that were made by Bandai that are 5.5 inches, because if you don't they are getting really hard to find except on eBay.
