KidKraft Annabelle Wooden Dollhouse with Elevator, Balcony and 17 Accessories, Gift for Ages 3+

I was looking for a dollhouse that would fit my daughter's exploding Barbie collection but didn't want a plastic toy. I researched and read the other reviews - thank you so much to all the other reviewers. This was actually a last-minute purchase - I decided on this one when it was $99 and free shippping w/ Amazon Prime, I was able to order it on December 23rd and get it on the 24th w/ my $3.99 overnight shipping. My husband assembled it very easily in about an hour and a half. I took another reviewer's advice and greased the elevator shaft with vaseline before assembly and it works like a dream. We were not missing any pieces and the piece overall is fairly solid. Do use the wall brace to secure it, as it it very tall and somewhat heavy. We are going to use it to store the Barbie's in it when she is not playing with it, since it is so big. The colors are pretty and the trim (although the trim is plastic on the porch, the elevator door and the three trianular inserts on the first and second floors - see photo) is cut in very pretty designs. For what it is, a Barbie house that is not plastic with thin-ish MDF walls, I am pleased that the structural supports are thick-ish wood as is the staircase bannister. I wish the stairs were wood (they are the only large piece that is plastic)but the material only affects the asthetics, not the functionality. This was a fantastic last-minute purchase and I am very pleased with the pretty look, how solid it is, and the size (big enough for Barbie). My daughter was astonished when she pulled off the wrapping paper and kept saying: "It's beautiful, Mommy!" She is thrilled and I am delighted. Note: the instructions have you assemble it sideways, so be sure you keep an eye on the graphics and make sure you assemble it with the panels facing the correct way. Use the vaseline on the elevator before putting it together and definitely choose (you are given two options to affix the chandelier: through the pre-drilled hole in the roof or just with a velcro strip) to assemble the chandelier through the roof. Don't use the velcro type of assembly: the velcro doesn't hold and the chandelier will keep falling off. Since the chandelier is one of the prettiest pieces of this house, make sure it is secured so it stays on and keeps the house looking pretty!

Super cute doll house! My granddaughter loves this. She is 4 perfect got her age.. quality is great and easy to put together.

this dollhouse for my daughter, and it has exceeded all expectations! It’s large, beautifully designed, and made of high-quality wood, which makes it feel sturdy and durable. The craftsmanship is impressive, with attention to every little detail. My daughter spends hours playing with it, creating endless stories and adventures. It truly feels like a miniature dream home! If you’re looking for a timeless, well-made dollhouse that will bring joy for years to come, this is the one. Highly recommend!

Assembly went Ok. Took 1 person 2.5 hrs. The actual wooden parts are the edges of each floor, the 2 support beams and staircase railing. The rest is MDF board. Assembly is fairly easy, just follow pictures and make sure you have any visable holes where they should be or you will get hung up on the next steps. The wood did split even with predrilled holes on the white porch bannisters, so go easy. Our roof gable arrived broken and looked like something was spilled on it. Thankfully it wasnt an essential piece for building, and customer service was great and is suppose to send a replacement. The only other broken piece was the nightstand but I superglued it back together. All the furniture is wood. The only downside is the elevator is very hard to move up and down for an adult. You have to put a lot of pressure on the house, and it may break the mdf floors. We will leave it stationary. Hopefully my 4 year old will love this barbie house. Its very pretty and looks sturdier than the plastic name brand ones. And its really tall!

We ordered this dollhouse for our 3 year old daughter because the Kidkraft Savannah dollhouse was out of stock everywhere. We chose Kidkraft because of many other customer reviews that raved about their customer service. We were looking for a Barbie style dollhouse but wanted one that was much better quality than the Barbie brand plastic dollhouse. At the time we ordered this dollhouse, it had no reviews but Amazon has a great return policy so we ordered it. It arrived in perfect condition and the assembly directions could have been better, but it wasn't difficult to assemble.....took less than 2 hours to put together. The dollhouse is very tall and is of great quality. Sure, it's not solid wood everywhere, but this is a child's toy dollhouse and most out there are not solid wood. The colors are pefect for a little girl that adores pinks and purples and this house comes with 17 pieces of solid wood furniture, which is more furniture than the more expensive Savannah dollhouse. The furniture is adorable and the elevator works great too! There are no stickers to put on it and the walls have beautiful, fun pictures painted on them. The dollhouse weighs over 40 lbs and is made of MDF. The floors are made of MDF that's approx half an inch thick, so it's solid for play but obviously it won't hold up against standing on it, or other really rough play. This was a HUGE hit this Christmas morning and it fits all of my daughter's Barbie's perfectly! She absolutely loves it and I would recommend this for anyone wanting a great quality, yet reasonably priced, dollhouse. There are plenty of windows and room for many Barbie's to comfortably play in there. It comes w/wall mount support brackets in case you want to put it on carpet and need to ensure it won't tip over. Once again, it is a great looking dollhouse, wonderful quality and my daughter absolutely adores it!!!

It's very cute and has adorable little details, but the instructions to put this thing together were not very easy to follow. Either the pictures could bave been bigger or included some written instructions. It took us 2 hours to put together. Also, for the price, this could be much better quality. The wood is basically particle board and pretty thin... and the graphics are just cheap stickers that sometimes aren't fit properly and already peeling off a little bit. And the escalator does not move smoothly at all. We will have to greese it up. I think they justify the price by the size. Overall, my daughter is very happy with it and it is a good doll house for barbie sized dolls, I just think it is pretty overpriced.

My daughter has wanted a Barbie house for a long time, but I could not bring myself to pay the crazy high price for the namebrand Barbie house. I came across this when I was shopping for Christmas and the price was right so I ordered it. I was not expecting much, but I have to say, I was very pleasantly surprised when I put it together. There are about 3 million pieces in the box, and the assembly seems a little intimidating at first, but the instructions are clear and easy to follow. I think it took me 45 minutes to an hour to get it completely assembled. Not only is the house itself well made and far sturdier than I ever would have expected, but it comes with several pieces of large, wooden furniture to use in the house. My daughter absolutely loves it and I am EXTREMELY happy and surprised at how nice it is... especially for the price.

I do not recommend buying this dollhouse. I honestly regret not going with a different brand — maybe a less popular one, with fewer reviews, but better quality. At least I feel I wouldn’t have lost anything. The build quality is just okay, but overall it feels like cheap mass production. The back walls were warped and didn’t fit into the slots properly. My husband and I had to assemble it together, and I was literally holding the panels in place so he could get the screws into the holes. The elevator doesn’t work. It takes the strength of an adult to even try to move it. Some parts already had glue residue on them and were torn off, which makes me question if I actually received a new item. On top of that, the sink piece was missing. I honestly wanted to return it, even with all the heavy packaging and foam, but it was a birthday gift for my daughter. When she overheard our complaints, she begged us to keep it, so we did. Unfortunately, there was no joy in this purchase at all.
