    Default Stable for Schleich?

    I want to get DD a stable for her Schleich horses. I have found two on Amazon but since I cannot find them IRL I don't know if they will work or what the quality is.

    The first one is the M&D folding stable. It looks small but reviews say it will work with Schleich.

    The second is the Maxim stable. I like the look better but wonder if it would be harder to access the inside? The reviews are good.

    Or should I just suck it up and spend $30 more on the official Schleich stable. I'm tempted, but she is already getting a few other things for her birthday so I don't really want to spend so much.

    Anyone have any of the choices, or others, and care to comment? I would also consider a barn instead but didn't see any I cared for.

    Do you have a Tuesday Morning nearby? I have seen M&D, Schleich and similar stables there, including ok looking knock-offs. The toy selection is hot or miss but mine always seems to have a good horse-and-accessories selection.

    No Tuesday Morning, unfortunately. We have a Ross and TJ Maxx but I've never seen a stable or barn there.

    We have had the one in your fist link (M&D) for years and it has worked great with the horses (and all other types of animals) and withstood some heavy play. I would totally recommend it. I always meant to look into getting more fencing for it--skimpy amount of fencing is my only complaint.
