 Sturdy and Double the Fun! |

I looked at a dozen different kitchens online and in stores in this price range before buying this for Christmas. (...) My kids (18 months and 4 years) love it. I purchased this because it was taller than many models, tall enough to be sized to my very tall 4-year-old without him growing out of it any time soon. The doors and openings in this kithen are larger than on kitchens like the Step 2. The Step 2 my friend has really frustrates the kids because they have a hard time fitting the food and items into the cabinets and my son said the fridge was too small. This one has a large fridge and the magnets are a neat touch, it will hold ABC magnets too for some extra fun. The stove top makes realistic noises and the microwave is looks real with the clear door. They love the coffee pot, it works a lot like those baby bottles that empty when you pour them. I thought this kitchen came with a small amount of accesories when compared with the Step 2 but far more than any other kitchen out there. The chef hat is fun and the food and pots and pans are large and of good quality. The phone that comes with it is horribly annoying, I am constantly knocking it off when I walk by it and I have felt like screaming and throwing it quite often. It's in a stupid spot and doesn't attach to the kithen very well. The grill on the back looks very real and the sounds are fun. Having 2 sides to the kitchen is great as there is always room for everyone. The "window" with the flowers is a big hit because the kids can look through at each other and talk to one another. The little bench that came with the picnic table is very sturdy and the kids have taken to using it around the house as a step stool. This is a very strong set as a whole, though the doors could be stronger. Its balanced well and hard to tip over. Other cons about this item is that it doesn't make a lot of noises. My kids don't care but if yours do it only makes noises from the stove top (microwave, teakettle, hood fan, water boiling/frying noise) and the grill (propane clicking, fire burning/crackling). I thought it could use a little light over the stove, so I stuck a touch light there for the kids that they like a lot. More buttons on the appliances would have been better. (yet again, my kids do not care) This thing really is a pain to put together. It takes a lot of screwing by hand and if you use a power drill to cut corners you could end up overdrilling into the plastic like we did. Do not give this present in the box expecting to put it together and have the kids playing with it. Put it together then give it, I am glad we did. Despite these things my kids love it. They play on it daily and can't walk by without whipping up something or washing a dish. We keep it in the main room beacuse I'd never see them if we didn't. I gave this toy a 5 overall based on the questions of fun, education and durability. The cons are nothing that bothered the kids, (who the toy was for) so 5 it is!

| My daughter loves this toy. She just got it for her 4th birthday which happend to be on Easter. I was a little worried about this after reading some bad reviews, but now that we have put it together, it is not as bad as some people made it sound. It took about an hour and half to put together, but that is expected since this is a big toy. It also went to together well as long as you followed the instructions. The thing that took the longest was putting the cover together that went over the window. One thing to keep in mind is that there is a reason they put age requirments on the package. I would say that the age on this one should be raised to 3, since it is hard to open the doors and to also close the doors. I will recommend this toy to anybody. |
Great kitchen!

My 18 month old boy normally has a very short attention span (sound familiar?!), but this kitchen/grill set keeps him actively engaged for quite a while! He loves making me a cup of coffee or grilling a burger for dad.
My husband and I put this toy together in about 30-45 minutes. I'm sure it would have been harder with only one person. The instructions say not to use a drill, but we did and it was no problem -- much easier/faster!
All of our doors fit fine, maybe we just got lucky? I agree more noises would have been nice, but that's what there imagination is for, right?!
I definitely recommend this toy! |
A Hit!!!

| We purchased this for our 18 month old son as a Hannukah present. The first day we could hardly get him away long enought to eat!! Luckily this wore off a bit but he still plays with it on daily basis. Adults find it just as amusing with the two sides and kitchen window. It is just the right size and rather sturdy. The only down side I see is that the oven and dish washer doors do make a popping noise when opened. |

| I got this for my twin daughers for their 3rd birthday. They love it. I like the fact that they can both play with it at the same time . This is also very durable. |
