My children are preteens now, but the Welcome Home Playhouse still sits in our yard entertaining neighborhood kids. As my kids outgrew the "playing house" stage the cottage turned into their club house. They begged me not to get rid of it. It has many fond memories.

I spent many days looking for the right house for my son to play in and kept coming back to this one. He is turning 1 in a few days and this was his gift from his grandparents. He absolutely loves to ring the doorbell and to open the door and the shutters. This will be a great toy inside or outside. Would definately recommend to anyone else! And this was VERY easy to put together. Nothing difficult at all! Buy it... you will love it.

Ok, so if you can get over the price, you will not regret your decision to buy this toy. I've had mine now for 4 years and it is still in fantastic shape. The kids play house in it, fireman (the house is on fire, naturally), coffee shop (the window is the drive-thru), haunted house, fairy tale theatre and on and on and on. It is the coolest. Some people have complained about the lack of floor. We built a small wooden deck under it that works fine. Like others, I do find it hard to keep clean only because I'm super tall and it's hard for me to get inside. The spiders love these little houses and we've also had some paper wasps move in, but that just goes to show how weather resistant they are. We've given up on the stickers and we just power wash it clean twice a year. Oh, and these babies sell like hot-cakes second-hand and they barely depreciate (so why not buy new?). When your kids are through enjoying it someday, you could sell it online pretty quickly. But not me - this house is staying in the family forever.

I bought this for my 3 year old. It was the most expensive of all that I was looking at but I don't regret purchasing it at all. I'm really glad I went with this one because of it's height. My 11 year old will go in it with her friends to play with her little sister. This could have never happened in a smaller house. This tells me my 3 year old will have many years of enjoyment with this house. My little one spends hours in it. She puts all sorts of things in it - her shopping cart, her babies in their strollers. I bought two small stools for it so her and a friend or her big sister are comfortable in there for long stretches. [...] I was able to put most of it together myself (with a bit of help from my 11 year old) I only needed a bit of adult help to put on the roof. I also added an out-door rug to make it a bit more cozy.

Open windows take in rain. Need plexiglass in those spaces. Need a way to put water in the sink and a way to drain. Needs more storage for dishes and "food"

Purchased this house for my 2 year old for her birthday. Her 5 year old brother loves the house too! They are having lots of fun with it. Can play for hours. Very roomy. Glad I purchased the bigger house. Well worth the $$.

I care for my two small grandchildren (2 1/2 and 4 mos.) 3-4 days a week. I have the playhouse set up in the bay of my living room so there is a lot of natural light and they can see directly outside and enjoy the yard and trees through their kitchen bay. My grandson absolutely loves the playhouse, and he is in and out of it all day. He loves the working door bell and rings it each time he enters or exits the house. It is roomy. The baby and I, along with the dog, can all fit inside with him comfortably. Since it is indoors I added a touch light inside near the roof to light it at night. I am looking forward to my granddaughter being old enough to play in it. I like the fact that it is large, can fit indoors for supervised play year long and then later be put in the yard.

My two-year old twin grandsons love playing in their new playhouse! They especially love the things they can move or do - open the cupboard, ring the doorbell, etc.

Bought this for my 2 yr old for her birthday. It is already a hit. I can tell we are going to have hours of fun with this house! She and her 5 yr old brother love it. Lots of room and cute too! You definitely need two people for some of the assembly but it was fairly easy. [...] but I called customer service and new ones were here within a couple of days.
