We already had such a house - the manufacturer was but another. The house was used almost every day, more than 3 years and broke apart in the middle just recently ... When we were looking for an alternative on the Internet, we found the optically completely identical house ... After sensationally fast delivery (within 2 days), but we found significant differences in direct comparison. The hinges are about half that locks ebenfallls. All in all, it seems functional and brings vermeindlich the same fun. We assume that this House simply endures only a few, so we canceled the old castles. On wood we could not see any savings. As I said, all in all ok, for the price as well - but just poorer quality ..
