We bought this for our 6 and 2 year old children for Christmas. Assembly was relatively easy, although pre drilled holes would have been useful. The cubby is a good size for the two children, although you would struggle to fit a play kitchen/anything bulky in there permanently. They tend to use it as a 'cafe' and house, with their plastic chairs on the outside. They also enjoy using the blackboard but need to be on the ground to draw/write. This product is great for those who don't want anything too big but still allows for lots of imaginative play. The price was also a draw card.�
