Q: How long does it take to put it together with two people?
submitted by Dakota - 6 days ago
A: We do not provide an hour marker, as everyone's skill set is going to be different. For a playhouse, all the wall panels are pre assembled, so it is just putting them together. We recommend just plotting out a full day to give yourself ample time.

The BILT app is definitely a must for building. It helped add context with the directions and 3D model. The playhouse is absolutely adorable. It’s great for a smaller backyard and my son could not stop smiling and beyond happy to have his playhouse.

Honestly the easiest outdoor play furniture I've ever built. Instructions are spot on the app makes it easy to move and see different angles. Only complaint is some pilot holes were off-center but not a huge deal.

I love it! It is adorable and my 2 year old daughter is in heaven! The directions were easy to follow. I wish that things could be put together in a different order because as a single mom who's 6' it was hard to get in there to put some of the items together. I panicked a little trying to get out when it was all put together. I did it off and on during one day while my daughter was sleeping or when I had my mom here to help watch her. Definitely can do on your own but it would go faster with a second person. I added my own personal touches (flowers, solar light, door mat, basket for play food/pots that were included and a wreath). I used 4" pots.

My son is obsessed with his new cubby house. He loves the little kitchen, playing ‘shops’ out the window. His face lit up when he used his door bell for the first time. It took my husband a few hours to put together. He said it was easier than he expected it to be.
Great playhouse!

I bought this years ago for my grandson. After he grew up I took it apart and store it away. About three years ago I transformed it into a chicken house. The materials used in manufacturing this playhouse have held up very well. I’ve add additional sides the original house to make more room for hens.

Great Pajama Tee - 5 months ago, Verified purchaser
This is a nice playhouse but the quality is not consistent throughout. Patches of discoloration, rough cut edges, and the gap between the door and frame is unexpectantly wide. The design is darling and it was easy to assemble over a couple of nights after bedtime. I don't value it at full price but if you can apply deals like we did, it's great!

Out of the box it did have a bit of a strong smell but that dissipated as the build went on. I was worried that solo I would struggle since it said it took two people to build but there were only a could times that it made for a difficult but doable maneuver, probably would have sped things up a decent amount but it took me 2:05 plus maybe 15-20 min for unboxing and cleanup. I also built it in the dark with a headlamp while trying to be quiet after kids bedtimes. It’s all wood except a few accessories which is awesome. It’s been treated with something hence the smell but that should help it hold up outside. I never opened the instructions book, purely used the BILT app and pretty sure that saved me at least an hour. Some of the pre drilled holes were off but you can just send the screws and they didn’t split the wood. I had one very minor split on the swinging door that I ended up drilling after it cracked a bit but no big deal. The doorbell and phone should be big hits, will find out on Christmas morning 👍

April - 7 months ago, Verified purchaser
This house is very cute and a great size. Some drawbacks are that it takes a considerable amount of time to assemble, the wood splits easily, and the door won’t stay closed unless your kid understands how to turn the knob to open and close it, which isn’t the easiest for small tots. My greatest complaint is that once installed, the doorbell is extremely hard to push for adults, unfortunately making it impossible to push for littles.
1 reply from backyard discovery team - 7 months ago
We are truly sorry to hear that you haven't had the most satisfactory experience possible. Be advised, we recommend getting a sealant on that wood to help prevent any future splitting or cracking. Contact us as the manufacturer if you'd like to replace any of the split pieces currently. We can do so under warranty. Backyard Discovery: (800) 856-4445
