if found before it's worth it not at
The castle's back walls are made of a cardboard type material and can be puched out unlike last years diamond castle which was all plastic. The castle is wobbly if stacked but as 2 rooms side by side it's good. I would be upset if I paid the asking price but for .95 on sale it's ok. My daughter loves it and makes a great piece next to the diamond castle and other Barbie play sets.

Lots of FUN!
We just bought this toy and put it together today. My 5 year old loves it. It is very cute, although not super sturdy, but that is expected for this type of plastic toy. It stands well but when two or more kids get together to play with it, it may wobble enough to knock the pieces over. The castle itself stands fine, but may work best against a wall. The stairs/slide is such a great piece of this castle, it is a lot of fun! The kitty that comes with it, can slide down the banister/railing all by itself, really fun! The pieces are cute although could have been a bit bigger to fit the dolls more comfortably on them. If they made an indent in the chairs the dolls would be able to sit better. The scenes are really nice, they compliment the castle nicely. It was super easy to put together since there isn't a whole lot to snap on, just the stairs, the headboards for the bed and a few other pieces. My 5 year old could do it herself. We got ours on sale for so I think at that price it was worth the money.

not noted
Would have been helpful to know that this piece was unfinished. We bought two of them for a child care center and were not prepared to have it stained and sealed.

Doll House
My daughter liked this design because her two girls could access it from all sides. It is easy for them to play together and not crownd each other out.

Sturdy
Just started using it, but it appears to be a well-made sturdy little house. My 3 yr old daughter loves it.

Hours of playtime fun
We bought this dollhouse at a local toy store for my daugher's 4th birthday. I really like the frame style and the way the children can reach in from all angles. It is much more durable than allowing her to play with my "look pretty" dollhouses. I did not buy any of the furniture sets designed for it. I bought the two complete sets of IKEA dollhouse furniture and they fit perfectly and filled the rooms. That cost me about total. Instead of people, my daughter uses the Calico Critters animals that used to be called Sylvanian Family. She loves it.

Two Happy Children
My children have played with little else since yesterday when they opened up this beautiful dollhouse. It is even more impressive than the picture. The dollhouse is so spacious and sturdy. The furniture that goes with it is also wonderfully crafted. I even found myself on the floor playing with them. I am confident that my future grandchildren will love playing with this as well.

A wonderful glimpse into the mind of our 2 year old
The concept of a lifelike dollhouse was a bit foreign to our toddler, but soon enough, her Fisher-Price Little People moved in; and both big and small versions meshed well with the furniture. Then the Asian family with baby and nursery decided to eat and sleep outdoors. Then the kitchen was converted into a garage with a stop sign to mark the end of the parking spot -- which we took to mean that she wanted our car back in the garage as she had often mentioned. Maybe any dollhouse would have done the job of allowing the child to express herself but this one is great because it is open on all sides, and raises discussions about conservation. Although well-designed and built, this toy is probably more appropriate for children who are willing to be gentle with their toys. The quality is absolutely amazing: no loose threads, soft fabrics, no exposed glue, and everything fits together like a beautiful puzzle.

Super eco-friendly dollhouse
I've been wanting to get my two children a dollhouse and when I saw that there were a couple of eco-dollhouses on the market, I was sold. After looking at this and another option, I chose this one because I liked the shade and the furniture design. Although it didn't come with any people, it was fully furnished and I was able to order people to go with it. The house is very eco-friendly. It is made of recycled wood and rubber wood and there is minimal paint used on it. Also the bedding is made of organic cotton. The only aspect of the house I am not thrilled with is the design of the windmill: it doesn't turn which isn't very fun for the girls. The recycle bins and rain barrel are neat--I'm going to get some pieces of paper and plastic to put into the bins. My mother-in-law gave us the garden which is the perfect companion to the house. Overall, a great toy.

love it!
We have been happy with all our Plan Toys purchases. This is a great house. The green concept is very good. We also like the green commitment of the company itself.

Wonderful Green Dollhouse!
I almost didn't get this dollhouse for my 2.5 year old because there were no reviews on it and I didn't know how much she would like it but I am SO happy that I got in anyway! She LOVES this dollhouse. When she saw this house on Christmas morning all of her other presents didn't exist anymore. She started playing with the house immediately. I did buy one of the Plan Toys family sets to go with it and she loves playing with her "little people" and her dollhouse.
The house itself was really easy to put together and looks great! It's also fun to point out and talk about the solar panel and wind power parts. She enjoys playing with the recycling bins too. It's great that the house comes with furniture but I have to be honest that at my daughters age she doesn't really seem to care about it too much. It mostly just winds up on the floor and she plays with the family in the house without the furniture. One day she will use the furniture so it's nice to have it.
The dollhouse is really well made. I mean, my daughter is tough on toys and this one is taking her beating REALLY well. Nothing broken so far. :)
It's a wonderful looking dollhouse. It's a great size and she will get many years of play out of it. She loves playing with it and it's well made. What more could I ask for?
