Designed for both building and imaginative play, it's a very detailed set with a good amount of building required, and features and accessories that lend themselves nicely to storytelling. Kids can create all kinds of classic house play and family scenarios. more less

This Lego Friends set is fabulous. I love the special features of the staircase, the outdoor swing, and how you can take of the rooms upstairs and swap them around. I also think that the Lego hoover is very creative and fun for the mini - figures to interact with. My only complaint, however, is that it is extremely difficult for the dolls to play in the kitchen. Stephanie's room above leaves no space for you to place them in the dining area or even on the chairs. Although, in saying this, my solution is to take off her room while using the kitchen. It isn't fully efficient, though it does the job. I absolutely adore the detail in stickers for this set, they make Stephanie's House more interesting to play with. more less

I enojoyed the construction and the balance of activities within the house. Stephanie's mother Alicia is a fantastic figure, but I feel James is a little beige for my liking. The use of the standard minifigure hairpieces is an interesting precedent here. I think it is just marvellous. I am unaware of it being used in any other minidolls previously, but am happy to be corrected. more less

Overall judged by the standards of a play set, Stephanie's House is one of the better examples. It's playable, but also has a certain amount of shelf appeal, despite feeling a bit unfinished due to a lack of a proper roof. You get a decent number of parts useful for creating your own builds. Adults' mileage may vary, but children will very likely find this set quite appealing. more less

Overall, this is a great set which I think will appeal to both young and older fans. It was a fun build and is packed with new pieces plus two new mini-dolls. At the same time, it has lots of play features and places to role play. Just need to add the extra floor for the parents. more less

Because of the building features, I think this would be a great present for someone who doesn't have much LEGO building experience but would like a larger set. The build is not difficult but gives you a glimpse of other things that LEGO has to offer. That is, assuming they don't mind stickers! more less
