I opened it once and placed the doll, but my daughter doesn't seem interested, so I haven't used it since. It requires 4 AAA batteries, but I don't have any, so I haven't been able to confirm if the lights work. There are 9 dolls. There are also small accessories like plates. I only touched them for about 5 minutes each. The box has some scratches. The doll box is dented. Thank you.
