Discount Barbie Sisters Camp Out Set with Stacie Doll, Tent, Sleeping Bag

Customer Ratings:

I bought this in a store and I was frustrated that it seemed to fall apart whenever my daughter or I put it together. I finally figured it out, since it didn't come with directions.

Make sure that when you put it together all of the bottom bars have the grooves facing down and are hooked through the elastic on the tent; also make sure that they all face the same direction and the round edges are on the right and pointed are on the left when the tent is upright.

Next, put all of the round corners on the supports first, then put the pointed ends on last, they sort of snap on. If you reverse them, it won't stay together.

I don't know if mine was the only one that didn't come with instructions, but a couple other people seemed frustrated like me, and it seems to be fine now. It can still come apart if it gets manhandled and isn't meant to be rough-housed with, but it stays up and together for my girls now. I also posted a photo for further reference. Hope this could help!

We are very disappointed in the quality of the tent itself. Everything else is adorable and works well, right down to the tiny camp chair and little marshmallows. We bought this for my daughter's birthday and husband put the tent together and said immediately "this thing is not going to stay together" I have to put it together several times a day. The four bottom "side rails" (for lack of better terminology) snap (but they don't really snap, it's cheap) onto the corner poles. It's the silliest design. I had two barbie tents growing up and they were never this awkward in the 80's? If you pick the tent up, it falls apart. Put a doll in, it falls apart.

If the tent was better made, this would be 5 stars no problem. But when the whole idea of camping is to get INTO a tent, I am not sure this is the greatest.

Luckily we think it's cute, and the little smores and sleeping bag make us happy. We have a ton of the barbie and sisters, and other camping sets with sleeping bags that go with, and they are all really neat. Just the tent stinks. Big time.

Best Deals for Barbie Sisters Camp Out Set with Stacie Doll, Tent, Sleeping Bag

This is a super fun toy. I had a Barbie camping set when I was a little girl and just loved it. I gave this as a gift this year and once the tent was up (it was slightly tricky to get going), it was a HUGE hit. Everyone wanted to play with it, even the boys.

Unfortunately, I was shocked to see the price of this on here at 38.90. There seems to be some massive gouging on this and other items for the Christmas season because I purchased this full price at Target a month ago for 19.99! So I would not buy it on this site. Buy it elsewhere, you will save almost 20.00!

Honest reviews on Barbie Sisters Camp Out Set with Stacie Doll, Tent, Sleeping Bag

I was a little leery about purchasing this Barbie sister's tent because of the bad reviews of the tent. Since some reviewers emphasized that it could work if put together correctly, I shared that information with the person who was to put it together. (I also mentioned that one reviewer said the illustration was more helpful than the directions.) He had it put together in a very short time (15 min. or so). My granddaughter loves to play with it! She has been camping before, so she loves pretending with the Stacie doll and her sisters. She doesn't seem to notice that the sleeping bags are flimsy. She likes to have the dolls sit around the campfire roasting marshmallows. She picks it up and takes it to another room and it holds together just fine. So far, this toy is a big hit!!

I loved this when I first saw it and thought it was perfect for my daughter who took her first camping trip this Summer and still talks about it. Cute idea, but I still can't get the tent to snap together. It's so flimsy and poorly constructed. I know it's just a Barbie play tent, but I at least expect it to stay up.
