KidKraft Modern Outdoor Wooden Playhouse with Picnic Table, Mailbox and Outdoor Grill ,Gift for Ages 3+

Very cute and sturdier than I thought. I bought the cover also, because we have a lot of storms. My daughter loves it. It can be frustrating to build, but it’s important to organize everything beforehand, read it through once, and then tackle it. (I’ve built several). It takes 2 people to fully put it all together. I built mine in sections, and then framed it together. A few extra corner brackets from a home store wouldn’t hurt.

Box was delivered in good condition and we had zero broken pieces after I unboxed everything so that was awesome. It took me 5 ish hours to put together by myself. The only part I got help with was putting the roof on because the braces used to attach the roof panels together is kind of flimsy and the panels will come apart of you aren't careful when you lift it. I found out the hard way but luckily nothing broke when one of the panels came off when I was trying to put the roof on myself. All of the parts are labeled so that helps a lot know where everything goes.The biggest advice I'd give is to pay close to the orientation of the panels in the instructions and keep a close eye on where all the holes should be. I messed up twice and had to go back and take something apart to flip it around so the holes lined up right. Besides that it's a pretty easy and straightforward thing to put together, it's just time consuming, but the kids love it!

We love this little house! The natural wood finish matches our deck and it is just the right size for my little ones. It took my 5 year old and myself 2 sessions/days of 2-3 hours each to build it. I am well versed in building from pictures thanks to putting my entire apt together from ikea, so if you can follow Ikea instructions, this will be a breeze. If I didn’t have Covid and my 5 year old hadn’t demanded to help me, I probably could have built it quicker. Some of the wooden pieces weren’t labeled, so I had to take a guess at some of the building steps, but I always guessed correctly. The door and it’s hinges were the most frustrating, time consuming thing to put together. While building, some of the pieces seemed pretty wobbly, but once the roof was secured it seems sturdy enough. A couple wood pieces were chipped or warped, but not so much that it is very noticeable. I live in a very foggy neighborhood, near the beach, so we tarp it every night to protect it. I will post an update if anything changes. Not pictured because they haven’t been delivered yet are all the accessories we got to add on - little numbers to make an address, AstroTurf, outdoor carpeting, welcome mat, and lights!TLDR: single mom can built it, so you can too. Kids love it! Accessorize it to make it yours.

It took 2 grown adults 5-6 hours to assemble. 90% of the parts were labeled. Its super cute and seems very well made. We had bought the KidKraft kitchen awhile back and love it, so it was an easy decision to buy this play house. Their products seem very durable. The house is super cute and comes with curtains. We also bought bbq set play food, which makes my daughter love this even more! She is 3 years old and the house seems like something she can grow into a bit more (I was worried about other playhouses because the reviews say that it almost seems too small for a 2 year old). My only "non-positive" is that I do think it's a bit overpriced, but we knew that when we bought it. It's super cute, and looks exactly like it did online. I would highly recommend this product ** 2 month update - I see a little fraying on the wood but to be expected with it being wood and outdoors. Still no major issues!

Pros: I love the look and design of this little play house. The assembly is super easy, a chimp who can turn a screw driver should be able to put this together in an afternoon. Made from real wood, no mdf or other junk.Con: Really cheap hardware. I have had the playhouse for about a month. My daughter isn't even two years old, so her play is very gentle at this point; meaning I know she didn't break these screws. They all snapped at various "stress points" on the house. There are some joints, particularly corners, where a single screw is taking on a bit more stress than necessary. This is due to short pieces being butted up, presumably to fit in the flat pack box.My advice, take inventory of the hardware included, and go buy some quality screws of the same size before assembly. The included screws are garbage.

Bought for my daughters 3rd birthday, but I also bought this playhouse because it’s tall enough for my 6 year old to play inside with her. It took my husband and I a little less than 3 hours to put together. A power drill is a absolute must, it will take you triple time to put together by hand. Couple pieces missing and a couple pieces of the wood were split, but we made it work, thankfully my husband knows about carpentry and is very handy. Pretty sturdy wood but light enough to move if needed, with 2 people. Shipping was so fast, literally one day. All and all, a great purchase and not going to sweat on the small stuff! It’s a adorable playhouse.

Everyone saying this took 8 hours to assemble had me worried but I did it by myself in about 5 including unboxing. I used a drill so not sure if some people attempted it without one? The wood is obviously not the greatest quality but it’s what I expected. We will see how it holds up but mine and every kid that comes over loves it.
