Advanced Beginner Level, Easily Customizable
There are no step by step instructions included, so I highly suggest watching a few YouTube videos of assembly. I was able to build this kit in about an hour and a half, using only an Exacto knife and an emery board. The pieces come precut in wood sheets, but need some help punching out at times. I also found some of the tabs needed to be shaved down a bit to fit correctly. The circles in the upper trim were not well cut and did not want to punch out, resulting in some damage to the trimwork that was very disappointing.I plan on completely customizing this house and painting it, so left it unglued so I can disassemble parts for painting. I also did not add the chimney, the front spire, or some of the gingerbread trim because they didn't fit with my vision. I also found the kit assembled to be smaller than 1:12 scale; picture with Quarter included for sizing. I believe it may be 1:28 scale. All in all, this is a good kit and I love how this is coming together! It was not as scary to assemble as some have stated in their reviews, but I would again highly recommend watching some of the videos on YouTube on how others assembled it. I would say this is advanced beginner level and a good starting point for building your own wooden dollhouse. It has good bones for making your own dollhouse and is easily customizable.

Good kit for the price
While there are no real instructions for assembling, each connection does have a letter or number to help you to connect them. I used these to label each and every piece to make assembling much easier. I dry fitted everything first (be careful not to force pieces. It’s craft wood, so it breaks easily)then glued. My next step will be to fill in any gaps then proceed with siding, roofing and exterior finishing proceeded by adding all of the fun details inside. Good starter house for anyone just getting into building and isn’t ready to tackle much larger, more detailed kits.

Would not recommend
I would not recommend buying this. It doesn't come together well and no instructions in English. The pieces don't flush together well at all. It leaves gaps 😔 I had to use a lot of wood pudy and had to alter most of the house. I spent hours trying to make it work. Unless you want lot's of frustration and want to alter it . I wouldn't waist my money on it.

If you buy it so it’ll get torn to shreds by mice, it’s perfect
This is a nightmare. I’ve included photos of my final product (thanks hyperfixation for helping me through this one), the image that came with it, the terrifying labeling map, and the assembly “instructions.”I say “instructions” because no actual instructions have ever said “Get general idea of which parts go where.” They might as well say “look at the picture and good luck.” As you can see by my horrible pink markings, I had to go through each sheet of wood individually and mark all the numbers because, frankly, it’s hellish to try to do so without marks on the wood.As for the wood, it’s what you would expect. Not great quality, one-ply wood with laser-cut areas to push out that may or may not actually come out without breaking the whole thing. Given the fact that this was guaranteed to be destroyed by tons of tiny rodent teeth, and all their, ah, releases, I didn’t care much if the quality was bad or not. But if you’re hoping for something that will look lovely on your Christmas display, maybe search elsewhere.This comes with nothing but what I pictured (and the wooden sheets that they come cut into). No glue, no actually helpful instructions, no nothing. And a LOT of the pieces fit together kinda wonky. Not just loose, which is fine, but strange joints where three pieces come together in a way unbendable-wood finds difficult to manage.If you’re looking for something cheap to do with the kids, this is fine? I guess? If you’re autistic, like I am, and not looking for perfection, then this would work. But the price doesn’t match what you’re getting, and I’d be hard pressed to pick an age group this would be appropriate for.The design is cute for sure, and the fact hat it has all 3 useable floors is great, but oh my gosh. What a nightmare. I’m thankful for my brain chemistry which let me start and finish this task instead of immediately sending it back once I realized that I was basically on my own here.

Needs Some Improvements
I bought multiples of this item for a workshop in our studio. All the pieces are placed on 10 sheets of material but not in the order they go in. There are no instructions so your only recourse is to go to YouTube to figure out how to put it together. Once you build one - it's pretty easy to figure out for subsequent ones. We punched out all the pieces, separated into sections in baggies and this made it much easier to assemble. If you paint or wallpaper go lightly - too much moisture makes the wood expand/warp and makes putting them together a lot more difficult. Dry brush only when you paint. If you do wallpaper with decoupage don't get it to wet and be careful not to block any of the slots where pieces need to snap together. Can be really cute and they are priced well.

Great potential for many themed ideas..
This dollhouse has great "bones" structure as a jumping off point for making it your own. Yes, it takes patience and time. Yes, I'd recommend wood glue and sand paper. No, I don't think it's the sellers fault that people are easily frustrated. If you're looking for something easy to do quickly, this might not be the project for you. It came with all the pieces that fit together nicely. No instructions but it takes common sense to figure it out. Most laser cut diy dollhouses, like this one, are light weight wood and will cost you $45 and up. This is a great deal. Use your imagination and you'll be pleasantly suprised.
