Positive aspects of the product (pros): The view from the top Cons: Disney's version of the stairmaster!
This is something you should do at WDW at least once. The only reason to climb is the amazing views of the park it provides near the top. Make sure you stop at each platform and look around.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Great views Cons: The Stairs!
Everyone should make the trek at least once. Stopping to read/look and enjoy all the points on the way up. However, I wouldn't make the climb on every trip.

The best part of this attraction is the view you get as you are walking up.

I really like this attraction because I am a big fan of the movie and it is fun to walk around and look at everything but I do not like the stairs.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Original idea from Disneyland Cons: Slightly dull, may not be engaging for teens
Worth at least one trip to the top. With the Swiss treehouse replaced by Tarzan at Disneyland, the treehouse at WDW is one of the remaining connections to the original attraction ideas developed for Disneyland.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Good place to burn some energy Cons: Kind of boring
Let your children run up the stairs to burn off some energy here. Meet them around the corner at the exit so you can save your own energy. There really isn't much to see here.

Lots of walking, but a neat item to take you away from the hustle and bustle. Disney knows how to keep everyone engaged and this is a great way to do something "different"

Positive aspects of the product (pros): the details are great Cons: it's a long walk up a narrow staircase and then down again
I'd recommend this if you've never been but if you have, once is enough. The attention to detail is great but overall, the attraction is rather boring. And after a long day in the hot sun the last thing I want to do is haul my butt up several flights of stairs. I'd rather hang out at the base of the tree eating a dole whip.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Interesting to see how the family might have lived Cons: Slow-moving lines and steep stairways
We enjoy the Treehouse once about every 5 years. The design and decor are lovely, but do not hold a lot of interest to those fans who have never seen the movie. The stair and walkways are quite steep, so taking a toddler on the attraction is an exercise in terror.
The exhibit is well-maintained, though - just feels like wasted space.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): great views, something different than just getting on a ride Cons: long climb, kids don't know the movie
Not for the out of shape - that's a long climb! But go at your own pace and stop to enjoy the small things there, and the great views. If you're on a short vacation, skip it.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Disney Classic, Great view at the top, never a wait Cons: Lots of steep stairs, not great for people afraid of heights
Even if you're unfamiliar with the movie, it's worth doing at least once. There's a lot of old-school Disney detailing to see if you take your time (I've always liked the conveyor belt thing carrying water up the tree). You can also see a long way across the Magic Kingdom when you get higher up.
Some of the staircases - and there are many - are steep and can be tricky to negotiate, especially if there are rowdy kids around. If you have difficulty with multiple flights of stairs, give it a pass.

I love the original Disney movie and you can relate the different rooms in the Tree House to scenes in the movie. Awesome view of the park, especially at night. Original attraction of the park...

Positive aspects of the product (pros): It's a tree house. Cons: Not much to it.
This is an attraction we usually pass up. If you've done it once, you've done it enough. If you have any trouble with stairs this is not the attraction for you.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Good details Cons: Not very exciting once you have seen it
This one is not a favorite of mine. I only go if there is no line at all. The details are nice but in my opinion there are better ways to spend your valuable time in the park.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Attention to detail is outstanding Cons: Little boring and a big climb
The attention to detail is what makes this an amazing attraction. The intricate details that make up the functionality of the tree house are a joy to investigate. Great photo ops here. The climb can be daunting for people with disabilities or health issues.

This is a tree house and the kids love it. It is very hot in the summer and not friendly for all guests. Guests in wheelchairs will not be able to experience this attraction.

Certainly not an E-Ticket, but a nice diversion. I would do it again. Well thought out.
If you've seen the movie you will get more out of it.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Hmmmm . . . it's right next to the Jungle Cruise so when you see it you know it's just a little further walk to a good ride! Cons: Just about all of it
This experience is a walkway that goes from "tree" to "tree" and passes by several rooms that look like they may have been bedrooms for the Robinson's. The only real highlight is getting high enough up that you can get a view of the rest of the park.
There are two major issues with this attraction. First off, the walkway is always just a massive line so there isn't a chance to feel like you're up in your own secret Disney tree house. Secondarily, a walk through of a tree house from a 50 year old movie needs to be replaced with something more up to date. Not only is this movie too old for most children but it's old enough that most of the parent's of young children won't even have seen it. (Not that it's not a good classic family movie.)
