Comments about Step2 MainStreet Village MainStreet Firehouse:

I bought this because I love the quality of Step 2 products, but this one is not the greatest. The doors to our firehouse don't even go back in any more, and we've only had it for 2 weeks. I finally just threw them away, b/c I was beyond sick of trying to put them back on. Cute toy, needed more thought!

Great price for the item. My son absolutely loves this toy. I got it because he is currently into fire trucks, but it went beyond my expectations with all of the extras. I like that everything fits right inside the fire house for easy storage. He will be getting several more of these sets for Christmas.

Comments about Step2 MainStreet Village MainStreet Firehouse:

I've never been a big fan of Little People, so I got my son the Firehouse and Airport for his birthday. We've only had them a few days, but I love them. The people and attention to detail are adorable, they're not so big and bulky so they're easy to store. I'm buying the farm next!

I would purchase this product again.

Comments about Step2 MainStreet Village MainStreet Firehouse:

My young grandchildren ages 2 to 3 enjoy playing with the village. It sparks imagination. The sounds are great. They play the sounds so much that I have to get new batteries for the sounds. Dispite the fact that a few items are not working (patio umbrella and Fire House door), the rest of the items are great to play with. The door bell was a surprise for the kids to play with. They really enjoy that item from time to time.

Loved it at first....

I don't like the way the doors come off. My son has pulled them off so many times, parking the firetruck inside, that they will barely stay on now. Other than that, it is a good toy! :)

Comments about Step2 MainStreet Village MainStreet Firehouse:

Our little four year old son and two year old son constantly play together with their beloved little firehouse, making up all kinds of little adventures. They especially love to save the kitty from various predicaments with the accompanying ladder truck or with their bigger ladder truck. They enjoy pushing the sounds buttons on top of the station. The little firefighter people are cute and easy for little hands to hold and carry around. Our little boys have even named the firefighter with the moustache after the fire captain at our neighborhood fire station: )

Comments about Step2 MainStreet Village MainStreet Firehouse:

I just bought this for my 2 year old son for his birthday and he loves it. His older brother is 5 and this is a toy they play with together. I was surprised by all of the detail they put into this product. Its cool. The only problem I have had with it is that the front doors come off the firehouse about 80 times a day but they are really easy to put back on it just gets tedious.

Comments about Step2 MainStreet Village MainStreet Firehouse:

My 18 month old son loves this toy and plays with it everyday. It is great to see him really using his imagination. He loves all the firemen and the noises that the station makes. My only complaint is that he pulled a door off and now it comes off if you just barely touch it. This doesn't slow my son down at all but makes me hesitate to buy another component in the Mainstreet Village series. Still I would definitely recommend it to a friend and have!

Comments about Step2 MainStreet Village MainStreet Firehouse:

My son loves the buttons on the firehouse. He likes all the different noises. The only thing about this toy, and maybe it was just this one, the doors for the firehouse were poorly made. They don't stay on very well and my son gets frustrated when they fall off.
