I bought this for my 6-year-old daughter and we had lots of fun assembling it together - it goes very quickly if you make sure to look at the schematic first and try to assemble pieces in numerical order. I think it could be very difficult if you were to punch out every piece and then try to figure out where they belong - I tried to punch out just one or two pieces of furniture at a time. Even my 4-year-old son was able to assemble the simpler pieces, such as chairs. A couple of pieces such as the toilet and bathtub are quite elaborate and a few tiny parts snapped when being slotted together with perhaps too much force - but easily fixed with wood glue. We plan to paint the entire set but even unpainted they are quite charming - the wardrobe doors and piano lid even open and close - very ingenious. We also plan to glue all pieces for durability, though most hold together quite well without it.
If you're looking for dolls to go with this set, or wondering if it fits your dollhouse, here are some dimensions:
Double bed is 3" long
Chair seats are about 3/4" wide
The ideal size doll to go with this would be no more than 3" tall - PlayMobil figures work OK though they are a tight fit on the chairs. Our doll house has 5" ceilings and the furniture is a very good match - you would not want to go less than 4" ceilings as the wardrobe is almost that tall.
In all, highly recommended and a very good value.
