I just received this Advent calendar and was pleasantly surprised at the quality. It is very sturdily constructed; I expect that this will last for years. Some things that aren’t obvious from the picture/description: The inside of each compartment is painted dark blue. The tin manger scene in the center has raised areas, and the three dimensions give it a richer look than if it were flat. The nicest surprise was that each of the figures is wood and appears to be hand-painted. The magnet on each is small and embedded into the back of the figure, so the figure sits flush against the tin background. The magnets are strong, too, so each piece securely connects to the background (no sliding down once you let go). Please note that some of the figures are small (e.g., stars) and could present a choking hazard to a very young child. I wish it were a little deeper (I measure the depth at 1 and 5/8th inches), but because of the weight and sturdiness of it, it does stand securely on its own. There are two hooks at the top of the back for hanging it. All in all, I am very pleased with this calendar – I know my young daughter will enjoy the excitement of opening the doors each day and slowly creating the Nativity scene. And it is beautifully crafted, so I’ll enjoy seeing it in our living room during the Advent season. It is well worth the cost. And incidently, it arrived two days after I ordered it (and I chose the Super Saver shipping, so ‘didn’t expect it to ship for 5 or more days).

This is a great advent calender. It is light weight, easy to manipulate for very young children, It sits nicely on a table or hang it on a wall. Magnetic pieces make it easy to apply.

What a great way to engage the whole family in the story of Christ’s birth and to enjoy the entire season of Advent. The frame and magnetic pieces are sturdy and solidly made. Nothing to worry over breaking. We love it.

I ordered this calendar after Christmas, so we did not use this year but are looking forward to using next year. The base is broad enough to sit on a table without support. The doors open easily. The figures have strong magnets, so they stay where they are put. I am happy with the quality and will enjoy using this for years to come.

I almost didn’t buy this product because it was so much more expensive than some of the others, but I’m glad I did. When I received it, I realized that this is an advent calendar that will be in our family for generations. It is high quality, good craftsmanship. The little figures are wooden with magnets on the back that ‘stick’ to the metal manger scene. Each figure is painted in detail, and this year my daughter had a wonderful time examining each of them as I told her their role in the Christmas story. This is a wonderful product to add to your family Christmas traditions.
