My son is busy but poorly finished

My son saw this toy doing gymnastics and really liked it. Arrived at home and ordered immediately, delivered in 2 days. We have owned it for about 1 month and the keys are very tarnished. The keys also have a very unpleasant strong metallic smell. My husband said he thought the keys might break in half once they felt very fragile. 3 stars because it's a cute idea and keeps my 2 year old busy, but the quality of the toy leaves a lot to be desired.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Poor instructions

Excellent purchase! for dolls and accessories

My son loves this toy! After seeing it on the YouTube Kids app, he was fascinated by how the demonstrator would unlock specific doors with corresponding numbered keys. The toy is very practical and trains the child's dexterity. My toddler enjoys playing with keys, can recognize numbered keys by their numbered (and colored) doors, and remembers doll names from YouTube videos. To each their own, but I don't mind watching "tutorial videos" with him on YouTube Kids. He could remember numbers up to…

I mean it's about $20 at Revain, the same 1 in North Conway at Zebs is $30!

My daughter has wanted this house with keys and locks for months, for a price I was absolutely willing to pay $20 as a pose for the house in NH we would get another $10 for! I also love Melissa & Doug, there is something so vintage about their products and I love it! We always try to order Melissa & Doug whenever we can because I know the quality will always be top notch! Nice toy, buy it! The house is also very strong, but I found that sometimes it is difficult for a child to get the keys, for

Keeps them busy for hours!

My almost 2 year old son loves this toy. He's obsessed with keys and locks so we picked this item and it didn't disappoint. He loves to open all the doors and bring the dolls in and out of the house. All locks are made of locks of different shapes, so it will be a little more difficult for the child, and it's great that he's engaged in something. No kidding, he can sit and play with it for hours. The dolls are made in different outfits. The colors are bright and sweet. The only complaint I have

Pros
  • Good value for money
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Great educational toy!

Excellent educational toy. It is made of wood and has bright colors. It has four doors. Each door has: - a different color - a number designation from 1 to 4 - a different shape and sound of the doorbell - a different lock with its own key Each key has a number from 1 to 4. 4 dolls have the same color clothes, that matches the color of the door. My 2 year old just got this toy and still loves it. He calls out the numbers and colors of different doors as he tries to open them. He needs help to…

It can be difficult for children to get keys to certain locks.

Melissa & Doug are very good natural toys. I love this toy BUT honestly it just seems good in concept. This is a sturdy toy that will stand up to heavy play; no questions. The price of this toy is a bit high for this type of toy but considering how it is made of wood, metal and natural materials I understand why there is an extra charge. This is not a mass-produced plastic toy that is short-lived. It will be for a long time. This is a great gift because it's exactly what my 3 year old wanted…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Crumpled

A fantastic multifunctional toy that encourages open play.

My 2.5 year old son loves this Melissa and Doug dollhouse. He loves to ring our doorbell and he has a toy car whose trunk can be opened with a key that just wraps around it. So when I found this toy I was very excited and hoped he would like it. Favourite toy. Each of the four doors has a key associated with it and they must be inserted in the correct direction in the lock, each key is numbered 1 to 4 according to the corresponding door. Each doorbell has a different shape and sound, and the…
