Loved that the house panels came pre assembled. There's we're still a good amount of pieces to reinforce them but nothing a drill didn't knock out. House is sturdy enough. Even though the roof is plastic, it has plenty of screws to keep it in place on the house's frame and where the two plastic pieces meet each other on the very top.  My kid of course loved it. Don't know how it would handle the Texas summer so we ended up putting it in our spare bedroom. It did have a very strong smell out of the box, but we left it outside in the sun for a few hours and that fixed it .
