Dangerous! cheaply produced! DO NOT BUY!
This was a going to be a present for a little girl but I definetly wouldn't recommend this. The one star is for the furniture that come with it but be careful as it is dangerous. I tried to hold the building together using a non expandable wood glue but even that was no use as the panel are all out of line by at least 4mm and even getting it out of the frame it all comes in is so hard because it splinters, splits and peels. It was fun assembling the furniture but even that is out of line as some don't fit together and other pieces are so loose that they fall straight apart. I have tried using the sandpaper but the wood is such bad quality I don't know how the is recommended for children. This is no use to us as now all we have it a pile of shaped pieces of wood. And we can't send this item back as it's now opened. PLEASE DO NOT BUY!!!!! I have studied art and sculpture so clearly I am not set back on the skills for this type of mini project and clearly have to have the patience for this type of thing but no matter how delicate you are with this it will just split layer by layer. I cannot believe this is allowed to even be sold in a 'toys' category. Just hazardous waste of time and definitely money. I am more angry that she won't be able to have a dolls house that she can paint (the sole reason this basic one was bought). Oh and the instructions aren't that clear to understand as they are diagrams which are for all 252 pieces! To top it all off the seller doesn't reply so good luck if you purchase this.When I have time I will attach some photos.

Don't.
Shoddy to say the least. The house itself, hmm. The cuts don't line up, I had to re cut most of the joints, and use wood glue to make it stay together. As for the furniture, it's a joke. I'm a crafter, I do a lot of artwork, have the tools. Just a craft knife wouldn't be enough. Unfortunately, I don't have space in my flat for a lathe and full wood working tool kit. Any piece with a slight wiggly bit split and fell apart when I tried to separate it from the rest. I managed to get one complete chair, and a table. Instructions? I wish I had micro vision. No written instructions at all, just a pictorial/numerical diagram that would take a PHD to understand, and I can build an IKEA Billy bookcase in fifteen minutes.. this is not suitable for kids. Unless they want to watch their parents attempt to assemble it, and the ensuing arguments, breakdown of marriage and divorce. Just don't.

Alright for money, but need a glue gun
Not built all the furniture yet, is taking a while but the house would not stay up, so a glue gun was vital. The small pieces of furniture break very easily when assembling so glue gun was also needed there, but I think it looks great. Of the furniture I've built so far (pictured) only two, the table and one chair, went together well enough to be classed as sturdy. Overall is fun to do but the instructions are useless, definitely not for kids, would be impossible to do!

Rubbish
The product is awful. It doesn't have any clear instructions or numbers on the pieced of wood to be able to assemble it.The material is of a poor quality, the holes are not clearly separated and its impossible to build. Such a waste of time and money. I just hope the seller will issue a refund.

Poorly cut template pieces steal the fun from this project.
Unfortunately, this was very disappointing. I purchased this to assemble and paint with my six year old daughter, but the jig sawing was inconsistent, not cutting through the wood sufficiently, poorly guided so that perforations were sometimes doubled per piece, lines weren’t straight and joints did not match up. In many places, the jigsawing was so poorly executed that the wood split and stripped off of the assembly pieces.I have some woodworking experience and I couldn’t really even adjust the pieces to be useable as is. The house portion pieces had virtually no straight lines cut in at all. Pictured is the best of the fits.
