My daughter LOVES Strawberry Shortcake! by Pixie (MN)  5 Stars
November 21, 2009
My daughter loves this toy, and plays with it every day. Yes, there are a lot of small pieces, but we just have a pencil box that we store all the little pieces in, and we have not yet lost anything in a couple of months. The pieces are well made, very detailed painting, and made of thicker more durable plastic. Some pieces have actual screws in them, instead of glue. The bird on top that the dolls can ride in is really fun and easy to work, just push the bird down, and it spins around as it slowly pops back up. It is a little overpriced at some stores, but if you watch sales you can get it for cheaper, I got a deluxe set with Plum Pudding and the roadster included with the cafe at a large chain retail store based out of Arkansas for one Jackson and four Washingtons. Overall a great toy, obviously not very educational, but great for the imagination.

Not much substance, and overpriced. by z hayes (plano,texas)  3 Stars
October 27, 2009
This set looks very attractive, and I had already purchased some of the other smaller playsets, so I deliberated on whether to purchase this or not. My daughter loves Strawberry Shortcake and her friends and would make a bee-line for this toy every time we went to the store. During one of my daughter's playdates, her friend had this set and after observing them at play and also after handling these toys for a while, I decided against buying it. The main reason is the tiny accessories that comes with this playset - the food items etc are miniscule and can be easily misplaced (my common complaint with the accessories in the Strawberry Shortcake playsets). I can foresee this being a problem in households where there are younger siblings, below the age of three (as they could be a potential choking hazard). Also, the Berry Cafe is not very substantial for the price - there is no back cover. It would have been more attractive and practical if it were the kind of building that could open and close, and perhaps have a little handle on top to make for easy carrying. All in all, I found this playset overpriced and not practical.

Berry Cute! by Elizabeth G. (WA) 5 Stars
October 07, 2009
My 4 year old DD had to earn this toy by not sucking her thumb. I had it in the closet for awhile, but finally came the time to open it, so I did it after she went to bed so I wouldn't have her hovering around while I try to pull all the tiny pieces out. The pieces are very tiny, but are comparable to Polly pocket size, so I don't recommend this to any child who still puts things in their mouth.
While I was putting it together, I got a close look at all the pieces and I was amazed by the quality! All the furniture is well painted and even though the pieces are small, they all are made well. There is nothing more annoying than when you have a table that is not quite level or sturdy and then the cups fall over when you set the table! With this toy, that doesn't happen.
Another thing that I like about this toy is that the staircase swivels. Moreover, you can take off SSC's dress and change her clothes (if you purchase another set, like the wardrobe). The window shutters open and close as does the door. The bird ride is pretty cool too, although your little one may need help putting SSC on the bird until they get the hang of it. Plus, who doesn't love things that smell like strawberries?! We've had ours for over 3 months and it still smells great! At first, I was worried that the fragrance would irritate my DD's eczema (she has it really bad on her hands), but it hasn't so far, which is yet another positive IMO.
The only thing my DD was dissapointed about was that it didn't come with SSC's pets, Pupcake and Custard. You have to buy them separately (in 2 diff. sets).
If you have/know a little one who loves SSC as well as playsets like Polly Pocket or Ponyville, then this set is for you! Keep your eyes open for sales if you want to save a little money. I got mine for $10 cheaper during an Amazon sale. I have also seen it sold as a combo deal at Wally World with other sets for an extremely good price.

Super small pieces, Over priced! by Jessica Kennedy (Waynesboro, PA United States)  2 Stars
October 06, 2009
I waited a few weeks making my daughter do weeks worth of chores and getting good reports from school until I broke down and purchased this for her.
It's wayyyy too expensive for what you get. She played with it a good bit the first day and then a little since then.
I don't foresee too much use out of this.
She does like tot gather all her other small house things together to build a neighborhood, which is super cute.
I'd wait longer to see if price will drop.
I love that Strawberry Shortcake smells like strawberries! I was amazed when I opened it and inhaled that sweet smell! :) Very cool.
