Review on Handmade 8664 Billy Teahouse - Market by Nap Olivas

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Overpriced and missing components

For the price, I expected at least real wood parts. Instead, only the walls of the building are made of wood. All other elements require cutting Styrofoam, a very cheap material that is sometimes difficult to cut. You'll also need to paint/paint the foam pieces, which is another extra step that isn't really needed when wood pieces are used instead (and would look better). The instructions are in Japanese and the pictures are not helpful at all. The best way to find DIY assembly videos is on YouTube. I also lacked the materials to make tea bags and a teapot. It looks good but it has no lights, dust cover or music and for the price I could put something more interesting together for half the price. I got this design because I'm a green tea fanatic and I really liked this design. I'm a bit disappointed with cheap build materials and missing parts.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • The list will be long.
