I'm in love with this set! I really thought the set would just be the fingerless gloves and hat, which would have been overpriced at $24, but when I found out the vest was included to, I bit! And I'm glad I did! The only thing I'd negatively say is that the fleece is the kind that already looks like it's piling, and the seam of the gloves stands out far from the hands, but the rest is so charming and I'm very happy with the purchase! The vest even has a tiny metal 'American Girl' logo on the front. This will keep your girl warm this winter!

You can see the look of 'piling' on the vest's lining already here --

Look at the top of the glove and you can see how far it sits away from the hand. This wouldn't bother a child I'm sure lol!

My grade:
Playability: A (The fingerless gloves shouldn't get lost too easy. They're rather hard to get on LOL!)
Durability: B+ if only for the fact that it already looks old due to the pilling (piling?)
Value for the Money: B+, it could always be a little cheaper, right?
