We bought this armoire for our daughter for her American Girl doll. Having purchased other Melissa and Doug products over the years with great satisfaction, we assumed that this was another one of their wonderful toys. While the armoire is cute, there are two problems with it:
1. It is touted as being sized correctly for 18" dolls; however, the hanging part of the armoire is too short for most of their clothes. In addition, the hanging section is divided into two narrow areas, each of which is really too skinny to hold more than just a few items of clothing.
2. The paint finish does not hold up well to even the most minor usage. When carefully unwrapping the armoire from the packaging, we actually chipped a couple of small areas. Since this item is meant for children to play with, the paint should hold up better than that.
Since we have always been happy with Doug and Melissa toys, we assumed that we would be happy with this armoire and didn't conduct our research on it as thoroughly as we would have otherwise. By noting the measurements, we would have hopefully realized that the sizing was not right for an 18" doll and would have instead purchased a different armoire elsewhere.

I have to say, I am one who never really returns anything, but I am unhappy with this item. It is definitely smaller than the advertised product dimensions-the box actually says 12"X20"X10"-which is not what is advertised. It is very cute, but far smaller than what I was expecting. It seems like it is meant more for a Barbie doll as opposed to 20" baby dolls. Again it is very cute and there is nothing physically wrong with it-it just doesn't seem practical for it's purposes and definitely not for the extra couple of dollars. I will be returning it and continue my search for hopefully a slightly larger armoire.Rorie V. AZ
Best Deals for Melissa & Doug Deluxe Wooden Doll Armoire
Cute, my daughter loved it and I have been a fan of many of the Melissa and Doug products I have purchased in the past. The main problem was that I ordered a pink armoire and received a white one--now this is actually better, and matched the rest of my daughter's doll furniture, but it wasn't what I ordered, in fact there wasn't an option for a white armoire. The other minor complaint is that the back of the drawers come off easily because of the design--a bit of wood glue and we were all set, but a bit of an annoyance.The design and functionality is great, very cute and unique!!
Honest reviews on Melissa & Doug Deluxe Wooden Doll Armoire
I love the little Armoire. It is so cute. It is a little short for American girl clothes but I knew that when I bought it. What I would like is more little hangers like the 2 that came with it. Is there a way to purchase more?Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Melissa & Doug Deluxe Wooden Doll Armoire
this armoire is really disappointing. and usually I love Melissa and Doug items. it is smaller than I expected. too small, really, for the American Girl doll clothes. the dresses are longer than the space and end up hitting the bottom because they can't hang straight all the way down. more importantly, none of the hangers I have from several different sources fit!! the diameter of the hang bar is so big, the hangers can't fit over it which makes the entire piece of furniture useless. take a pass on this one for sure and spend a little extra money to get a bigger, better item elsewhere.
