Here's the thing. If your child will be sitting in this thing alone or doing very little in it, this is a great toy. However, if your child is anything like my 5 year old daughter; who wants you to play with them, or cover the construction with a blanket, or who wants to be a damsel in distress and even play a sharp, graceful hand gesture. you can reconsider. The parts themselves seem solid enough, but the structure itself is small and falls apart with every movement of any part of the frame. It cannot be a ceiling fort as it cannot support the weight of a ceiling large enough to cover it. One more thing, and I'll say this last, because it might just be user error on my part, but the instructions are rubbish. The structure and design is simple enough, but trying to follow their diagrams I spent 40 minutes slightly bending the pieces into place and twisting the balls just to try to match D to D. After I threw the instructions in the trash, it took maybe another 10 minutes. Minutes for complete disassembly and assembly. It might sound like a case of "this guy just didn't know how to put it together". All I can say is spend your money and make an effort. Give me a thumbs up for this review to attest to its accuracy if you decide.
