I bought this play set for my 2yo daughters birthday and I'm so glad i did, the quality and instructions were spot on and all the pieces came in one piece luckily with no damage at all. it may be a little time consuming but if as stated in previous comments below its important to lay everything out first and them just follow the instructions step by step and its fun and easy to do! if your looking for a long lasting play set that will last forever and grow with your child by this one..
