Schleich Great Adventure Waterhole

I bought this as a present for my 11 year old daughter after a recent surgery to cheer her up. We have a very large Schleich collection and so expect only the best, as is often the case, with these products.Pros: This is a fairy large play set. You'll either need a table or a decent floor space to set it down on. The animals are the same high quality you normally get, although it could have included more of the big 5, however, the selection is a good "starter" african animal set. I love all of the plants, hidey holes, and life like structure of the set. There is enough space to support play with a variety of figurines. You could set this up as a display and leave it for viewing as long as you don't have pets or kids bumping it. The instructions were thorough - you have to look closely and go slowly at times to see which plant pieces go together, so do this in a well lighted area. I'm poor at putting together sets but this was easy for me. You do need some thumb strength to push stuff into holes.Cons: It would be nice if the pieces snapped together. It's 3 sections, and they move around easily. I Put ours by a wall so it won't move as much. It's not a total dealbreaker as it's easier to move it around when you need to clean up, so easier for kids to put away instead of needing an adult every time. The waterfall in the pictures (and the water) looks like a crystal blue in the pictures. The water is darker but still water color. I was unhappy with the waterfall piece. It's purplish. And kind of ugly. It stands out against the set, but my daughter doesn't care. I'm not sure if this is funny or not but she pretends the water is polluted so her animals don't drink from that side of the play set. Kinda sad, but realistic I guess. Some of the pieces can come off easily as they are just set on there, but not hard to replace.I gave this four stars because overall it's a really nice set, but detracted a star mostly because of the ugly waterfall. I expected better than that.

I love it. I am 49 years old and I purchased for myself. Not all items came with the Safari. I added other Schleich animals. Adults still can be kids too!

Schleich for the wun once again! We used this for my sons dinosaur collection. It is large, detailed and sturdy everything you would expect from schleich. Money well spent!

Bought it for my 5 year old son who adores animals and the safari. He has an entire collection of all the life like animals so this watering hole was a huge hit. His imagination grew and he played with it for hours. The only reason I didn't give this product 5 stars was because I wish the 3 main sections connected so that it didn't move all the time while playing with it. It's a bit annoying as I can't imagine why they didn't snap it together. Otherwise, great toy and truly worth the cost.

This is a really cute set. The meerkat no longer appears to be part of it. I took a picture of what is actually included. If you purchase it, you likely will want to buy some additional animals to better populate

This thing is unbelievably amazing. We got it for our 5 year old animal loving princess for Christmas and not only does she love it but everyone who sees it is completely amazed at just how cool it is.

Granddaughter has spent hours playing with it and has used her imagination to add to it (she borrowed my green bathroom rug for grass). Love toys that let the imagination run.

This is awesome! One of the coolest toys ever! The exclusive figures are great! Also, this set is HUGE. Much bigger than I thought!

Sehr schönes und umfangreiches Set in gewohnter Schleich Qualität. Nicht billig das Set aber sehr vielen Teile und sehr stabil und toll verarbeitet.Trotz des hohen Preises eine klare Kaufempfehlung.

Es tal y como se ve y es precioso cuando está montado.

Escenario muy bonito. Con muchos detalles y ajustado a la realidad de los que quiere representar.
