I bought this from the original owner. I have a almost 3 yr old and she loves it! when we brought it home for her to see, she kept saying WOW. over and over again. The prev. owner only powerwashed it and had it for a few yrs I think it looks great and clean and ready for many years with round two. it has a very cute design also.

Comments about Step2 Sweetheart Playhouse:

We have this playhouse in our family room. It is just big enough for my 2 girls 4 and 2. My only disappointment was that there are no flowers for the flower pot. Looking at the picture, my daughter was very excited about the flower pot. Otherwise it was a great choice for a great price [...] The box isn't as big as it sounds and fit in the back of our minivan with the back seat taken out. Saves SO MUCH money picking it up yourself!!!

Comments about Step2 Sweetheart Playhouse:

We bought this for our daughter for her 2nd birthday and she absolutely LOVES it! She plays in it for hours! It's one of the prettiest playhouses we saw while researching them. It is very well built and colorful. The doorbell is a great feature. There is also a stove that flips over to the outside of the house as a grill. The house is large enough to fit 2 child chairs inside and lots of 2-5 year olds! We would definately reccomend this playhouse to others!

I love this house. When we lost the phone and the grill became messed up from being outside, Step2 replaced those parts so it is good as new. I love Step 2 products.

Comments about Step2 Sweetheart Playhouse:

I got this for my daughter as an early birthday present as she is turning two and she loves it!! It was very easy to assemble and reasonably priced as I got it from toys r us. Its a good size and I think it will last both my girls as the youngest is only 5 months old, however I wouldn't really recommend this is you have more than two children because when the stove flips over it takes up alot of room inside. I do think that for the money you pay it would be worth putting a small stove and sink inside, similar to the one the Little Tikes have in their country cottage, that way it wouldn't take up too much room. The one thing I love about this cubby house is that the colours are so light and airy, my friend bought a Little Tikes Cubby house and it had quite dark colours and her kids rarely play in it because it is so dark inside, the light colours of this cubby plus the open windows and skylight make it really open and attractive for little kids to go inside, also its easy to see what they are getting up to inside. I am very happy that I did invest and bought the genuine Step 2 Playhouse as there are alot of copies by Lerado,I find that the durability and quality is far better if you just pay a little more.

Comments about Step2 Sweetheart Playhouse:

Early Christmas present for my daughter. She is 15 months and just loves it. She just needs to stop climbing through the window and use the door; it is easier that way. The doorbell is great too. I am so glad I found a great product MADE IN THE USA. [...] I thought I wanted a bigger one but this one is great because we decided to keep it in her room and it didn't overpower the room.

Would reccommend!!!!!!

Comments about Step2 Sweetheart Playhouse:

I bought this for my 16 month old for an early Christmas present since she loved to climb into small places I thought this would be a great hide away for her. We use it in our play room and she loves to play in it with the other little girl that I babysit.

She loves to open and shut the door and shutters and will ring the door bell over and over.

The only thing I would of liked is for more toy accesories for the amount of money.

Comments about Step2 Sweetheart Playhouse:

We got this for our daughter's first birthday. She is almost two years old now and she still plays in it. She really loves to have someone play in it with her. We had bought her a small kitchen and wanted to get her a much bigger kitchen so we put the small one inside of this house. She loves the door bell and phone. [...].

Comments about Step2 Sweetheart Playhouse:

I love the product. We have it in a playroom in our house so our autistic daughter can enjoy it year round. I was not happy with the fact that there was not a store in my area that carried this product and I had to pay almost have the cost of the playhouse to have it shipped to my house.
