I bought this for my 2 year old, so I wanted something smaller than the average dollhouse and strong enough to hold up to some rough play. This is perfect! The walls and floors are made of thick but very lightweight material, and have some kind of stain-resistant cover that seems easy to clean. The furniture is all very chunky and easy for little hands.
It was also a piece of cake to assemble. My 5 year old helped put it together, and the only thing we needed a screwdriver for was the little latch that holds the "yard" wall shut. I thought I would need to reinforce it with glue, but once we snapped in the final pieces (the 3 green shapes on each side) I trust this dollhouse could be thrown or dropped without coming loose at all.

I have bought this item recently for each of my children as well as my nieces, after my daughter received one for her first child. It is like having a bassinet without all the fuss. It goes anywhere with you, upstairs downstairs, a friends, at hotel or grandma's. The baby will nap or sleep as if they were at home, if for an afternoon or a few days. Great item and wonderful assortment of colors.
