Bought for a child of 3 years, the toy is not so strong as that. Within days the most fragile parts (and not necessarily suitable for a small child) as the mirrors are gone. Then it's doors and flashing lights that were torn in a few weeks. The toy is not particularly fell, but by dint of being handled, the weaker parties released. We must therefore take it to an older and more cautious child. The large scale, for cons, still works fine.
