Purchased as a gift. It really is a very cute little marionette music box that captures the whimsy of the Ghibli film it's based upon. Unfortunately for me the strings of the puppets inside became tangled in shipping to the point that I could not untangle them without disassembling the unit. It took some 20 minutes of carefully unwinding cat heads and limbs from each-other, but in the end it was repaired.
