Melissa & Doug Doll-House Furniture- Living Room Set

What a delightful collection. And I expect a lot from Melissa and Doug. The table pieces are adorable. There is spindle work and detailing. The tops are not just flat. The couch and chair material is a red-ish wine color with off-white and greenish-gold stripes. The pillows are sewn on and plush. The front of the sitting pieces, seats, and backs have padding. There are little feet which holds the furniture off the ground. The curio cabinet has doors that open! and plastic shelves and back. It's nicely made and even has little knobs. These pieces come in a nice box with each piece in it's own plastic compartment. SUMMARY This is a really nice collection that has adorable detailing. I will say though that these are NOT pieces for Littles. They are detailed and wood and to get the detail you have to give up the sturdiness. (Items like the pillows, if pulled off, could be choking hazards and if someone broke the plastic shelves I imagine they could poke/cut themselves.) This would be fine for an older child who is 'mature' enough to be able to care and play with nice doll-house furniture. We purchased this for our teen's crime scene project and couldn't be happier.

These arrived quickly and was well packaged. The quality is nice and the couch and chairs are very durable. However, it wasn't written in the product description and I thought I would share...the cabinet is beautiful and will make a great place to display miniatures, but only one side of the cabinet will open. The other is fixed not to open. The other, the pillows on the couch are not removable. The price is reasonable so I recommend these items, but if both doors would open and the pillows were removable it would really add to the interactive play of the product.

I was very pleased with this purchase. At first I was reluctant to buy the Melissa and Doug Deluxe Dollhouse Living Room because the pictures made the upholstery look too busy. Also, it seemed that the pieces were too large for the Melissa and Doug Dollhouse Living Room. However, when the set arrived I found the upholstery was quite lovely, and not busy at all. All the pieces fit in the living room with space to spare. The craftsmanship is superb. I am an adult dollhouse enthusiast, and the Melissa and Doug furniture matched and often exceeded some of the dollhouse furniture I had had paid much more for. The pieces are great for kids too. They fit my granddaughters little hands perfectly. Great product at a great price. You can't go wrong. Also, I would highly recommend the Melissa and Doug Victorian Dollhouse. The rooms are spacious, yet the size of the dollhouse isn't overwhelming. I've included a picture of the living room and master bedroom to give you an idea of the size of the furniture and rooms.

I gave it 4 stars only because the sofas and chairs are well made and durable. The hutch is total junk with two of the legs broken off when I received it in the mail. My husband glued the pieces back on, but the kids brought it to me the next day with all of the legs broken. These items are not made for use in a preschool classroom. Maybe for a single child that is very gentle. The hutch also has plastic sheets as Glass which fell out, and the shelf inside the hutch broke and dropped down on the third day. Also the drawer on the table keeps falling out. Now that I read all of this again, I think I should have given it three stars instead of 4

This is a lovely set, well made and good detail and the scale is spot on. Sofa has proper material, draws open on table, glass cabinet doors open etc. Only issue I have is the price. I got this on Prime so was happy with it, otherwise it might be considered a little pricey. That said, quality is excellent and will stand up to vigorous play.

Updated 7/11/16 I'm updating my original review from 1 star to 5 to reflect both the new product I was sent as well as the excellent customer service. I contacted Barbara as requested and she was quite concerned about the smell the product had. She put my worries about formaldehyde to rest and asked if I was willing to accept another set in postage-free trade for this one so they could run tests on it to determine what was giving it this strong, unpleasant odor. The new set, I'm glad to report, smells like a regular wood product, nothing at all like the first. I'm returning the original one and hopefully they can determine what went wrong with it. The new set is absolutely adorable and I'm looking forward to displaying it! Original review: Terrible chemical smell As cute as the living room furniture is, the smell that is coming off of each piece is so strong that I had to immediately take them all outside as soon as I opened the packaging. Too late, I noticed a tag on the bottom indicating that it was "California 93120 compliant for formaldehyde emission phase 2" which I would've thought meant that it was safe. However, now I suppose all I can take that to mean is "this product has a bunch of formaldehyde in it, just not enough to make it over a certain level." So I'm at a loss as to what to do with it now. I'm honestly too afraid to bring it back in the house and display it as I'd originally intended (though if the smell didn't diminish from what it's at now, that's a moot point, it's honestly an eye-watering intensity at the moment). Several of us in my household have smell-sensitivies and breathing issues and I never would've bought this if I would've had any idea that it smelled like this. I always try to read reviews for exactly this reason but so far, none that I've found had mentioned the smell. So if you're sensitive to strong smells or simply don't want something that reeks of chemicals, I highly advise you to avoid this product.

I received this set today and was delighted with the quality of the product. The doors worked as did the drawers. The upholstered pieces were well made. This is an excellent suite for a dollhouse. It is a large suite of furniture so be aware of the amount of room you actually have to put it in before ordering.

This is top quality doll furniture. In the past, I have had a davenport be northing more than fabric glued over a poorly made sofa. That is not the case here. The davenport, chairs and foot stool are all padded as are the pillows. The display cabinet actually has 3 clear shelves. This is inexpensive, top quality doll furniture.

Gud product grt quality

作画の為に購入しました。持っていたモデル人形とサイズ感が微妙に合っていて個人的にそこが一番驚いてしまいました（笑）。それはともかく、最近のミニチュアってすごく凝ってるんだなぁと感動。何よりも可愛いのでこれは集めたくなるなぁ、とも思いました。 一人用ソファーの布の一部分が少し（色素が抜けているという意味で）傷がありましたが、先述のように作画の為に購入したのであまり気になりません。が、気にする人は気にするかも…という事で－1とさせて頂きました。 とても可愛くディテールも良かったので機会があったらまた他の商品を購入したいと思います。

Me gustó mucho el conjunto, solo que parece que no vi bien el tono de café, porque fué diferente del comedor y la recamara, que también pedí, estos llegaron de un café más claro, supongo que fué mi error, pero son muy lindos y muy bien hechos!

Excelentes acabados, escala ideal y es preciosa!

Good craftsmanship
