    Very tedious for one person

    Written by (AFOL , silver-rated reviewer) in United States,

    You basically want to either get another person or two to build this; very tedious for the first 6 books (there are 9 instruction books for each room, elevator and roof.) as you are basically building the same size rooms with few changes. It feels like a very long Choe sense if you're not building all 6 rooms at the same time.

    Something that was a bit odd to me during the build of the music and bathroom, was part of the printing being covered up. In the bathroom you can at least see the cat's ear, but the one in the music room is gone completely. (could be something related to the show)

    The set is certainly good looking, having simple furnitures build in every room. I do like the small detail of the whiskers on the roof. There are also two more rooms behind the cat head roof.

    All the rooms are connected by an elevator, though sadly there isn't anything to keep it up and remain on floor one until a hand can lift it.

    There are certainly great parts for those looking to make buildings, especially if you're looking to make one with white & light aqua, as the set comes with plenty of those.

    However, this set is a 4+ set; so many of the parts are printed, such as the bright pink panel walls. This could also be why the designer used windows for the room walls rather than panels. As the window can be switched around to cover the print rather than having a hard time using it or removing the print.

    For minidolls, you get 1 minidoll, 2 micro minidoll and a cat cupcake.

    The details of these dolls are very nice and well design. The cat ear accessory, along with the cat heads are very nice to have. I could see those cat head being reuse outside of the theme as other things, like a cat shaped radio or TV.

    While the set is overall good and does make a good dollhouse, I only recommend it when it's on discount. As it can be a great dollhouse for kids, along with having many bricks, panels and plates. The price to part makes it best to wait for a discount.
