My daughter, mom today, had almost the same house there is 20 and she played for hours! The model was a little less sophisticated (no balcony or lighting) but remained in perfect condition, the roof apart, a little run down. The great advantage of this house, besides its strength is that it is the perfect scale for Playmobil. Today is my little 3 year old son playing with and I plan to buy the latest model of the same brand.
