ds would definately dive from the roof but then he would climb up the chimney given half a chance!!

vickiyumyum · 17/02/2006 20:36

i would buy it the ds' would love it, but it is too expensive! think they would dive from the roof, but isn't that part of the fun?

misdee · 17/02/2006 20:36

i have the space but not the money lol. i can afford the 159.99 one if i am tight with my money over the next 3months lol.

It's 1.68m to the eaves, but still - an accident waiting to happen, I'd have thought.

And why's it called a Boyz playhouse????

littlemissbossy · 17/02/2006 20:36

misdee · 17/02/2006 20:36

Wow! Not for five hundred quid I wouldn't. DH could knock that up in an afternoon. (I said 'could' and not 'would' though ).

misdee · 17/02/2006 20:49

if money wasnt a object - yea of course ill buy it and ill live it in meself!!!!

Tortington · 17/02/2006 21:56

my boys would have slid down the roof action man stylee.

Skribble · 17/02/2006 22:45

Cool I like it, yes kids will jump off the top. I would surround it with a very deep bed of bark chips I mean at least a foot deep and keep topping it up. Make sure it is far enough away from walls, fence posts and other things that would cause damge if landed on, no worse than climbing trees .

collision · 17/02/2006 23:19

What are the cheapest play houses around? Think my ds's would love one for the summer.

Nemo1977 · 17/02/2006 23:24

how bizarre I saw this in the argos catalogue before and thought how cool is that but could see DS doing fantastic superman impressions on it...plus not a cats chance in hell I could afford it..lol

edam · 17/02/2006 23:38

If I had £500 knocking around with nothing to do I'd get it. Looks fab.

Would want reassurance that would stand up to grown-ups climbing all over it as well though.

CountessDracula · 17/02/2006 23:40

No I dont' like the colour or the wonkiness

Bet they would though!

moondog · 18/02/2006 00:00

Christ no!
£500 wasted on the kids!!??

They can make do with the garden shed.

expatinscotland · 18/02/2006 00:08

no. don't have the space. or the money.

£500?! weekend in paris!

Cristina7 · 18/02/2006 07:02

No, too much money for us.

cheltenhamgal · 18/02/2006 07:35

It is lovely but would not be able to justify the cost, Collision, its might not be what you are looking for but my daughter loves the princess tent from ELC plus you can put it away in the winter. She plays in it for hours with her dolls etc
