Plus

You will be absolutely amazed by the realistic design of the Melissa & Doug Heirloom Victorian Dollhouse. Adults often find themselves “arranging” the furniture inside the house or straightening up a bit. (an adult would never play with a dollhouse!) A lot of work went into creating an almost perfect replica of a Victorian home.

There is no end to the number of furniture sets you can purchase for this dollhouse. Kitchen sets, Victorian living rooms, nursery sets and bedroom sets are beautifully made. You can even order a complete Victorian furniture collection, enough to decorate six rooms.

Cons

There are two common complaints about the Melissa & Doug Heirloom Victorian Dollhouse. First, the dollhouse rooms are not quite large enough for the full set of furniture. With each piece installed there is little room left to play. This dollhouse would be perfect at about 20% increase in room size. This means you will likely be better served to purchase furniture set individually because you will not need all the pieces.

Melissa and Doug dolls are not a fan favorite with the kids. It could be their appearance is a bit too sophisticated for the average young child, however many report it is their lack of flexibility. These dolls do not bend easily which means they do not fit in their furniture very well. Many girls prefer the small bratz or baby Barbie dolls instead.

Conclusion

Is this a good gift idea for young girls? Absolutely! Despite the few negatives you will encounter, girls of may ages really love the Melissa & Doug Heirloom Victorian Dollhouse. Beautiful detailing, cute accessories and a nice size provides hours of imaginative playtime. Not to mention this is a nice conversation piece for your friends! Sturdy construction means it will stand the test of time and could actually become part of a future adult dollhouse collection.
