Our Generation Tea Party Set For 18" Dolls

This tea set goes great with the table set.

Lovely pastries to add to any girl's tea party needs. They look good enough to eat and the set was a huge success with our granddaughter.

Unfortunately, this product I felt was too small for my grandaughter's American Girl Doll . She is 7 and the quality of the items needed to be bette as well as larger.

I realize this is a set for dolls, but even with that acknowledgement, this set is TINY!!! I feel like I completely overpaid at almost $30. The sandwiches and cupcakes and cookies are all no bigger than 3/4 of an inch, and the teapot is 3.5 inches at it's widest point. Saucers are two inches in diameter and the cookie box is about three inches in diameter. It's a cute set, the items are really detailed, but I'm just shocked at how tiny everything is, seems it could be bigger and still be to scale with the dolls. I suppose I should have paid better attention to product dimension.

I bought a table and chair set for my six year old granddaughter's American Girl doll for Christmas. Since she has a two year old sister, a fancy china tea set was nnot a good idea. I was so happy to find this set. The size is just right and the little food treats make it really fun. She and her cousin gave several enjoyable tea parties for their dolls on Christmas day and I'm confident that this set will last.

My 5-year-old daughter and her 8-year-old sister love playing with their American Girl dolls, so I decided to buy a tea set for the 5-year-old for her birthday that she could use with those dolls. This set fits the bill, with a few caveats. Number one, the tea bags are really just tiny pieces of coated paper with the names of tea printed on them. There is no string to make them look like actual tea bags, which is disappointing. However, the bag that comes with them is very cute and looks just like a bag of tea you would buy at the store. However, all of these coated paper items came taped together, which left a sticky residue on the "bags" of tea. Also, I assumed the tea tray would hold the pot and tea items on it, so one of the dolls could play "mother", but no such luck. The tray barely holds the pot and you would have to stack the plates under the pot to put them on it and then possibly squeeze the cups on beside the pot. Also, the canister that holds all the cookies, cupcakes and sandwiches is so big it won't fit on the tray. It is very cute and the scale is tiny, which is appropriate for an 18" doll; however, the price is about twice as much as it should be. If I had paid $15 for this item, I would be thrilled with it. Having paid almost $40, I am very disappointed. My girls aren't as picky, so they are having fun playing with it. I just can't imagine those tiny pieces of paper will last very long. Also, I was hoping to store the entire set on the tray so as not to lose any pieces, but that is not a possibility.

It's okay but I would shop around for a different set. The paper items in this set are pretty flimsy (example - a bag that is labeled "tea" ripped right out of the package) and the cups and treats are sized rather small for an 18 inch doll.

Totally adorable!!
