While we've only used this one day so far, I have to say that it is adorable!  Seems to be a quality construction, has easy-to-follow instructions, and I especially love the fact that the music has a volume control knob.  I had to make adjustments to the tree branches and the light strand Santa holds to make sure there was no interference during his climb because he would slide to the bottom and stop if something got in the way.  Once cleared, he returned to his task successfully.  I believe this package was shipped from the Memphis area as I received mine in one day!! VERY pleased with my purchase!!
