I love them!  they are of decent size....they're not too tiny.  I hate it when I buy something online and it ends up doll house sized.  this is the perfect size.  it is also substantial.  it doesn't feel like it's going to fall about if you look at it too hard.  I will say that there are literally a gazillion pieces; but they're all labeled well and the instructions were exceptional.  I put this together by myself while watching my favorite tv show.  this piece gets 5 stars and an A+.
