@BzzAgent @EverAfterHighUS Ever After High Thronecoming Briar Beauty Doll and Furniture Set Review



I received the Ever After High Thronecoming Briar Beauty Doll & Furniture Set FREE through BZZAGENT thanks to Mattel. When it first arrived I was so excited as my daughter loves Ever After High and I knew she would love it.
Once we got the book/display and doll out of the box and started setting it up, I was disappointed.
There are too many paper/thin cardboard parts. The "pages" or background scenes, a garland of roses, and a fold out DJ table are all made of paper. The "pages" may last longer as they are not really used as much, they are just there, but the garland and DJ table will be torn off in a couple months if not less. The DJ table is attached to the background and had a hole barely big enough for the doll to slip in and pretend she is a DJ for the dance. After doing that so many times, I see it ripping from the background.

Now for the things we like:
Everything has a place inside the book. there are things to hold the table, and ladder pieces inside the book for storage. The underside of the bed comes apart and allows for everything else to be stored. Then in the binding of the book, the bed and doll slide in and the whole thing will fit nicely on a shelf till time to play again. It was a little tricky to get her and the bed back in but not too hard.
Another good feature is that you don't have this huge house with different rooms, just a small book where you flip pages and you have a new room for your doll to play in. All the accessories were easy to put together, nothing seems to be missing.

Doll:
Love the fact that the doll has wrist, elbow and shoulder joints. This allows for you to do more with her. She is easy to move. Her earrings do come out but are easy to put back in. She does come with a display stand too, if you don't want to keep her in the book. The teeny tiny ring she has, will be lost in no time. My daughter does wish there was a brush for her though.

All in all, it is ok. My daughter loves playing with it, but I wouldn't spend $40 on it knowing that parts will be torn off in less than a few months though.

This is available at many places.
