If I had purchased this playhouse without the intentions of painting it to match our shed, I would have been super disappointed. Ours came with lots of cops and dings in the finish and has given a few splinters so far. Assembly wasn’t too bad, but I highly recommend having a SECOND DRILL ON HAND for pre drilling so you don’t have to switch your bit a million times. Some of our pieces were incorrect, but we were able to modify it to make it work since this was a Christmas gift and we didn’t have time to wait for the correct ones to arrive. All in all we’re very happy with the playhouse, but I can’t wait to paint it this spring.
