Made this purchase for my 27 month old granddaughter   What a perfect choice.. I spent months researching playhouses for her age/ gender. And a playhouse for outdoors in NY weather conditions. Step 2 products are made very sturdy and durable . They have been around for years. The cost of the playhouse I say you get what you pay for and step 2 is priced across the board a standard price. There are a few perks  with this playhouse as a working phone a ringing doorbell a stove that converts to a grill  she loves to open her shutters in the windows as well as putting things in the included window boxes. It’s perfect size for her age and it’s sturdy and safe ..
