It's a good quality product. We keep it outside on our patio. We purchased this for our 2 yrs old son and he loves it. The only con would be it's not that big inside the cottage. It would only be comfortable for 2 toddlers at a time. Overall I was impressed.

I was so excited to get a play house for my son because everytime we visited someone with one he played in it for hours. We got it for him for his second birthday. That was 4 months ago and he has played in the house a total of three times. Though the description makes it seem like there is so much to do in it, there is really very little. The phone breaks easily, the sink and stove are boring after a minute, the stickers fall off in the rain, and the flower pot holder fills with water and gets slimey and dirty and it hard to clean. The best part is the doorbell, and for the money I can think of many better toys to buy than a doorbell. I have put toys in the house and a chair, but there is nothing I can do to lure my son into it. A big disappointment.

Comments about Step2 Naturally Playful® Countryside Cottage™:
My daughter received this house for being a good little girl as she has always wanted one. I did alot of research and since I am a big fan of Step 2 products, we decided on this one. Also, because this is only 1 of 2 houses that are sold in stores from Step 2. Within 1 hour (husband did not even finish building it yet) the phone did not work. THe house has not been built for 24 hours and I went outside to let her play today and the doorbell did not work. If it wasn't such a pain to get this home I would return it. THe roof on top does not meet up properly either. I love the house but for being something for small children and suppose to be durable, too many things are going wrong. I put at the bottom wouldn't recommend, but I am borderline. THe phone and doorbell are the best parts to her and now they don't work.

Comments about Step2 Naturally Playful® Countryside Cottage™:
We bought this house for our granddaughter. She loved it! She is two. She calls it her birthday house. However, it came with no assembly instructions. I guess somehow they were not packed in the box?? So it took us a while to get it together. I had to find the picture on the internet website and try and put it together.

Easy to assemble and grandchildren seem to love playing in it. Disappointed that decals did not come with it and am still waiting for them, since that is what makes the cottage.
