DJECO/ Pop to Play Castle of Wonders

This is the first Pop to Play product that I have purchased, and I am impressed! The cardboard is surprisingly sturdy, and the pieces were super easy to assemble; it took me less than five minutes. The interlocking pieces fit very well and stay in place.The castle is beautiful! Each piece is printed with high quality images. The artwork has a lot of depth to it, with different shapes and lines adding dimension. I was debating on whether to go ahead and buy a doll house for her, but I think this is a great alternative. It is small, light-weight, and portable. It also comes with a much lower price point!The castle is the perfect size for my four year old daughter's many Disney Magic Clip dolls. This would also work well for many other small dolls or other toys, such as the new Disney Little Kingdom dolls, Littlest Petshop toys, or My Little Pony toys. This castle is a lot of fun, and my daughter really enjoys it!

This castle is a wonderful product. Many of the play castles on the market are plastic behemoths associated with a particular brand and let's face it, pretty expensive for a toy that your child may or may not play with all that much. We live in a fairly small space with no room for enormous play sets. This castle is very sturdy and the perfect scale for the Playmobil figures my five year old plays with. I appreciate that the castle can be taken apart and put away in a flat box, so it's easy to rotate it in and out with her other toys. The price is also very right.The castle design is attractive, with obvious attention to detail. It contains a number of palace "pets", cats and fish that my daughter enjoys seeking out and counting. It's nice that while the set is made to work with Papo figurines it's not obvious, i.e. no pictures on the walls, and it doesn't look as though someone vomited Pepto Bismol pink all over it as other castles often do. It will age very well and stay with her until she outgrows it. Then, as it is cardboard, I don't need to feel too bad about its disposal.My only complaint would be that the platforms are fairly shallow and do not accommodate a lot of furniture. It will accommodate Playmobil chairs and smaller items like a vanity. My daughter was concerned that her princess couldn't sleep on her bed in the castle. That problem we solved with the age old solution of a shoe box turned into an additional bedroom.

We were looking for an alternative to the plastic playsets and dollhouses out there.Our daughter loves to create stories and worlds with her toys. This little house is now the star of the show.We were a little nervous ordering it - card board and all. But what we found when we opened it far exceeded our expectations.The product images don't do it justice. There are little accents, like birds, cats and fish that pop out when you think you've noticed everything.It has just enough heft to feel durable and stay in place. All the pieces are cut well and printed on both sides.It snaps together easily. Daughter assembled it on her own with no problems. While she's careful with her toys, this thing has withstood two solid months of playtime and the occasional attack from the toddler in the house.I'll definitely be looking into similar products from this company.

This castle is very easy to assemble, and quite pretty besides. I put this together in about ten minutes. Young children, however, will a parent's help to assemble it, especially the fountain in the center. The paperboard is definitely very sturdy.I love the whimsical details, like the tiny birds and cats in the flower bushes. The miniature Shopkins Shoppie dolls (the ones that fit in the Happy Home playsets) are the perfect size for the castle if you can't find small princess dolls or other fairy tale figures.

This castle is inexpensive and versatile. The cardboard is sturdy and the castle is easy to assemble. My five-year-old uses it with her dollhouse dolls, My Little Pony figures, and other random figurines. The vertical walls are towards the back of the castle, so while you can play with it 360 degrees, it also works sitting up against a wall.

I thought it'd be great for our two year old's beloved Disney princess figurines to have a castle. I wanted something that didn't take up a lot of room, was fairly inexpensive, and not pink all over. This Deco castle definitely fit the bill. I like the attention to detail and how it's neither all pink nor is it simple, primary colors. Her Disney princess figurines are an average height of 3.75 inches and some of them don't clear the doorways without some maneuvering. Thought that may be noteworthy to someone.When I first put it together, my daughter was obsessed with carrying it everywhere she went in our place. The hedge pieces constantly fell out and she'd rip out the second story archway at least three times every hour. It drove me nuts and I fantasized about throwing it away. A few drops of gorilla glue into every nook where the pieces attach, spread with the help of popsicle sticks saved my sanity and made the castle nearly toddler proof.

My 4 year old daughter loves this, and I like that I can break it down when she's not playing with it. The bushes that serve as the feet on the bottom come off when she moves it, but they are easily put back on. It's also a perfect side for her Disney magiclip dolls.

I assembled it in 3 minutes. The cardboard pieces are beautifully decorated on both sides and are very sturdy. This castle is great for any 6-inch doll and magic clip dolls. We elevated the castle by placing it on a small chair, so my daughter can play with it more easily, using both floors.
