SHIERDU Montessori Wooden Busy House Basic Life Skills and fine Motor Training for Children, pre-School Education and Learning Busy Board, Sensory Game Toys, Large Gifts for Boys and Girls

Outstanding kids activity set. We bought two of them.

My som loves it. Lots of fun and random activities.

I bought this wooden busy house in December 2023, completely unaware that it had already been recalled due to lead paint. Yes—lead paint on a children's toy. What’s worse? Amazon didn’t issue a recall notice until four months later. By that time, I had already missed the return window, and they refused to take it back.After digging deeper, I found something even more disturbing: the recall was actually issued five months before I even bought it. Amazon knowingly continued to sell a product they knew was hazardous to children. That’s not just negligence—it’s outright dangerous.I contacted the manufacturer multiple times—five, maybe six emails—and heard absolutely nothing. I even reached out to the state, and got no response there either. Now I’m stuck with a $220 toxic hunk of wood collecting dust in my garage.Save your money and protect your kids—this product is unsafe, the company is unresponsive, and the seller cannot be trusted. This is the worst purchase I’ve ever made.

Grandchildren absolutely loved this

I really wanted to love this but unfortunately we have had too many issues. This was a Christmas gift for my son. Within a week, numerous items are broken. Right off the bat, one of the music boxes didn't work and one of the lights didn't work. Today, the 2nd music box broke and the steering wheel no longer works, either. It is such a great concept but is very cheaply made. For the price and the quality, it is not worth it.

This is so nice and I love that the top is double sided! It’s heavy, seriously sturdy, and has such fun details and each side is really cute. There’s a few things that are a little annoying though. The 9 on the top is “missing” (rocket is in place of the 9?), the photo behind one of the doors is upside down, and the music is a little interesting. Does include baby shark, and lots of common tunes that I wouldn’t have expected like Happy Birthday which is really sweet. Overall, would absolutely buy again and I’ll get over the imperfections!

This is a fantastic busy house/box for a 10-18 month old. Suggest spending the money on an outside service to assemble, because it has many pieces. Not complicated, but it does take a minute. Outstanding presentation, design and quality. Our toddler pulled the phone off the house quickly, but overall this is a sturdy and lovely toy and would make a great gift.

Our 1yr old baby can not play with it unsupervised yet.However, we love this toy because it has many things to tinker with and even functions as a toy box!We decided to just remove/modify the dangerous parts and replace them with something better.We cut the phone cable, took away the drumsticks.Everything else seems safe and sturdy enough.
