Review on 🏠 Enhanced Surprises at the LOL Surprise OMG House by Shawn Trotter

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Nice perspective, sorting issues

Don't get me wrong this house is GREAT! Bright, cheerful and with many accessories. So what's the problem? Many parts are slightly warped so due to the weight of the upper floors the rotating room function on the lower floor does not work. I was initially sorting through all the parts and going through the parts list and a very important part that was supposed to be set on the first page was missing. He is responsible for strengthening the bottom two parts of the foundation, which means no support if I ever decide to move the house. This is fine with me as I am an adult collector using this for photography and have chosen not to collect this left side of the house in the main unit. Everything from the drive to the slide can shut down for me, which isn't ideal, but what can I do? If I screwed anything I could, this lower part would cause the upper layers to break. Disappointing. I would suggest that you check all of your items before you begin, especially if the item is for a child. Two missing pieces that caught my eye in this set. In addition to the missing piece of wood [fragment C], I was missing the other half of the palm tree [fragment 12]. I searched carefully several times during the building process, fearing I might have forgotten something in the boxes I had thrown aside. I destroyed everything and threw away the whole box and a bunch of styrofoam but to no avail. Another problem I encountered is the screw holes that are used for the roof. They stuck out too far and prevented the upper room from rotating without snagging or scratching the wood. I decided to separate the wall as there were screw caps in that part. In the future I plan to glue two pieces of wood under the roof table to hold the roof piece together without screws. In this case I can flip the roof wall to access the surprise party backdrop in the photos. I want to love the house, but this missing part at the beginning, but the damper on the whole building process. If it weren't for the screws on the roof and those two HUGE missing parts, I'd easily give this beauty five stars. Until then, I just can't see myself buying anything else from LOL Surprise, for example due to constant quality control issues.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • A little maintainability
