Very Basic, Nice Quality Living Room Set June 29, 2008
G. McCarthy (Chicago)
This is a decent, rather plain, living room set for your Calico Critters. The set includes a couch, rocking chair, bookcase, and accessories, all sized for your Critter families.
My girls (age 5 & 8) play with their Critters often, but have more families than dollhouses, so I'm always looking for ways to help with the living situations. I bought this living room to set up in an old Fisher Price barn - I thought the Critters could sleep in the hayloft, and have a living room in the barn. These pieces fit the bill, because they are small (the couch measures 4 1/8 inches wide) and there are only 3 pieces of furniture - enough to fill out a room, but not overcrowd it.
The couch seats 2 and is rather austere - it actually reminds me of a church pew. The arms/sides are tan plastic, and the seat and back are covered in a green print canvas. There is nothing plush about it - the canvas feels like it was stretched over a frame. So far it's doing well, but I must admit I wonder if a puncture is in it's future. Hopefully not! The seat of the couch is deep enough that most (maybe all) of the Critters should be able to sit on it. We have the Mulberry Racoons, which have big, fluffy tails, and 2 of them can indeed sit on the couch together. The rocking chair is made of the same tan plastic - plain, but sturdy, with a little decorative cut-out on the back. The bookcase, again that same tan plastic, has a shelf sized to hold the included books, and 2 working lower drawers with gold metal handles. The accessories include six plastic books with colorful covers (my daughters LOVE these!), a small lantern and 2 picture frames with 10 pictures to display. I tossed the pictures and frames before I even showed them to my kids - the frames have adhesive on the back to attach them to a wall, but I thought that would just ruin the barn.
The price of this furniture might be a little high, but it is a nice quality. Probably just right for playing with - not junky, but not collectible miniatures either.
Bottom line - like most of our Calico Critters playthings, my girls and I are happy with the purchase.

This dollhouse furniture is made of plastic meant to resemble rattan -- it's adorable and very well-made. I'm thrilled with the play value of Calico Critters toys. My daughter is fascinated with them. The quality of the furniture is excellent, as is the quality of all of the Calico Critters toys I've seen. This is wonderful stuff.

My 4 year old daughter loves everything we have bought in the Calico Critters sets. This is no exception. She adores the little furniture, with the great details and has spent alot of time playing with these. I do not recommend them for children that will lose small pieces- we pack it back into a box with a tight fitting lid after playing. All of the 3 & 4 year old girls in her playgroup are jealous of this set of toys.
 Still worth buying, AFTER you get the other Critter sets! December 13, 2002

This is a nice little set, though not too interesting by itself. Recommended only when purchased with critters & house. This set has been in Sylvanian Families (aka Calico Critters in usa), since the begining. The books are really cute, and removable from the book shelf. THere are also pictures & picture frames, chairs, couch, and a lamp. As mentioned before, you would want to have calico critter families & a house before picking this up as it has little play interest when bought as a stand alone. Quality and durability is great & items can be used with most small dolls ^_^
