Review on ROBOTIME Miniature Dollhouse Decorations Furnitures by Ham Channell

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Soho Time is very cool! But a few details are impractical to collect.

So here are the four stars: - We LOVE the design details and the great quality of most of the items - But the written instructions (in English) were unclear at times and the pictures were too small. be easy to understand. However, if you don't take the text too literally, you will eventually be able to understand it all.- Our biggest disappointment was the construction of the table and small chair - a REAL headache! There is NO easy way to attach the legs to the table. the bottom of any part. The wire is so soft and pliable that it is extremely difficult to maintain the correct shape when assembling all the pieces, let alone attaching them to the underside of a table and chair! (We had to use the extra bits we had on hand to do this job.) We used the included glue, which has good adhesion but does NOT dry quickly, so you'll need to hold the pieces together until they're strong enough are. (very carefully!). We have chosen to complement this adhesive with Scotch Tacky Glue, which dries quickly and provides some stability during the drying process, which can take several hours. (This tape works best for joining all paper and card items together. It's white, but becomes clear after drying. Also note that the included clear glue tends to form messy "strings". But they don't easy to peel off after drying.) All in all, it was (mostly) a lot of fun, so we'll be getting another model soon! and components (wood, no flex wire legs) but TERRIBLE instructions with tiny/faint pictures, no text, missing steps, and 15 missing pieces! More annoying than funny.
