Our children have been given this spherical house for Christmas and since someone always plays with it (children, grandpa, mom, dad and all visiting ...!) So far, it keeps all loads, it is stable, despite a small footprint, does not wobble and the large balls (which are available for tiny tots, as well in the hand and not ingestible) run smoothly. The only minor "flaws" that make a slightly nonsensical and possibly already mentioned 4 pins at the base of the house, which are intended apparently to be due to stay the balls on the lower level. Sometime wackelnen impression (previously fixed and not dangerous). I think it would have made more sense to dress the broadsides on the principle of long sides with 2 strips of wood, would look better and makes the absurd construction unnecessary. Otherwise the primary colors are the combination of wood a beautiful eye-catcher and always stimulating and play with the big balls you can do much more to start. Recommended age: 10 months to 100 years.
Conclusion: Meaningful basic toy, I would buy it again and also away, as there is a great and not too expensive gift idea is.
