We were impressed by the 4 fixed windows and the half-glazed door. These provide enough ventilation for your children, especially when playing during the summer months amid warmer temperatures. In addition, the raised tower design gives the wooden playhouse a modern appeal that will add some décor to your garden.
Included with the wooden playhouse are a solid sheet roof and floor. The roof is made with dark grey sand felt to protect the young ones from the damaging UV rays of the sun and also provide waterproof protection from the rain.

Build Quality
As you can see from the materials that it has been made of, it is clear that this wooden playhouse is of great quality. It was crafted with natural wood which gives its durability. The outdoor elements such as the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun and heavy rain will not cause a problem for the natural wood.
The raised tower design will further prevent the penetration of water. The pillars are sturdy enough, so there is no need to dig large holes to insert them.
The sturdy and fixed windows provide ample protection to withstand strong winds or rain. The roof will also play a role in shielding the windows against storm damage. Although it feels light, the materials are sturdy. The wood is interlocked. This gives extra reassurances that it will protect the inside against any water penetration.
Once installed, the wooden playhouse will not be shaken or destroyed by the blowing winds because of the use of premium quality materials. It will last a long time in your garden without the need to replace it or move it to another wind-free location. A natural wood finish has been applied to the playhouse, so it won’t deteriorate rapidly as a result of the exposure to sunlight or rain. The dark grey sand felt roof will also plays a role in protecting it from the sun.
Strength and Safety
One major concern of every parent in children’s playhouses is their safety. This wooden playhouse has made safety a priority. However, please ensure you check the maximum supported weight to make sure you don’t have too many children in it at once. The product was designed for domestic use only, not for commercial purposes. Apart from that, your children will play safely in this playhouse and have lots of fun!
The age restriction is for children above 3 years old. This is to ensure they are able to climb the playhouse safely and not fall out with ease. The 4 x 4 green slide is safe for kids to slide down from the raised tower design and we can assure you it is a lot of fun! In addition to that, there is a traditional ladder to easily access the wooden playhouse on the other side. All these do not pose safety problems to your children and have been designed to allow safe access to the playhouse.
Should it rain while children are playing in this playhouse, parents should not worry as it has a solid sheet roof to protect the children from the rain. No rain can penetrate the wood, unless of course it comes through the windows or the door, if they have been left open for ventilation purposes. The good quality of natural wood provides maximum safety for kids to play in this playhouse. It is also EN 71 safety approved.
