Very very good

This is a really good product. Of course, this is a simple wood product (that's the point). Looks the same as in the picture. An experienced carpenter could definitely make it, but it's not out of ordinary plywood, it's out of what seems to me like Baltic birch (nice, denser and multi-ply plywood that's quite expensive and hard to find). It currently costs around $200, but if you want to reproduce it without mass-producing it, you'll surely have spent at least half that amount by the time you're done. Overall I think it's a pretty fair price for its value. It was easy to assemble - just rotate the parts. Fits perfectly, first try. I always keep tools on hand to retighten after 48 hours, but that's not necessary here. Very durable. As for its value, it's just one of those things that a child likes to play with. In my case, this is a very young child who is "shown" by a 6-year-old who really likes it. I expect it will be widespread in my grandchildren's first years of life. I don't share the hype about MINT, minimalism etc., but there is a certain truth to it. We have seen that our own children (and now grandchildren) enjoy playing with simple things, especially those made from such natural materials. It encourages creativity - it's become something (throw a blanket over it and it becomes a fortress, etc.). Such objects also have something pleasing to the eye - as superior as the latest plastic toys; they just don't clutter up the house in the same way. I'm very happy with it and hope it will hold up. If anything surprises me, I will update this review. Highly recommended!
