We stopped in at a major toy retailer and happened upon this I had been checking out kitchens and this was on my wishlist, and with a $10 coupon in my pocket I decided to spring for it on the spot.It is set up in our kitchen for our 19 month old who doesn't let me do a thing by myself in the kitchen.I'm hoping that I can get her playing with the kitchen while I cook.It is the perfect size and fits in decor wise with our existing kitchen, so it makes it really cute that way.It has open and close features and a phone with sounds, all already a hit with her.She's really into open and close, so she is a bit disappointed that the spice bottles that come with the set don't open (not an issue for me).We've been showing her how to shake the spices into the pot and now she's shaking them all over the house!The only improvement I would make is I wish there was a shelf in the fridge compartment.You can really only put one thing in there without one.I like the rack in the oven and we use that for storage of the pots.For now, the extras that come with the set (cutlery, plates, spoons, some food and spices) are good for us and we don't need the extra food items until she's really into experimenting and playing more often with the kitchen.It is big enough for two to play, and at 19 months she can reach the stuff on the back shelf, but she'll fit this for a while.One recommendation for set up on the burner that makes sounds, we've had this for less than 24 hours and already had to take the burner out twice because the batteries come loose, so before you screw it together, just get some masking tape to keep those bad boys secure and you'll be all set.The screws for the burner are a bit tough to get in and out, so it is a pain that there isn't a cover to keep the batteries secure.Other than that, we're happy with our purchase and foresee lots of fun (and hopefully mom can resume cooking in her kitchen, too!).
This kitchen (in Pink) was bought as a 1st birthday gift. It has been getting used every single day. It is usually one of the first things she goes for when she wakes up. The noises it make really entertain her, and we added a set of toy kitchen tools and accessories to add a bit more. By the end of the day it usually looks like a tornado swept through the room. Once our little girl was starting to pull herself to a standing position, we quickly found an easily solved problem with this kitchen. Toddlers are amazing, highly adaptive, and blindly suicidal. Ours quickly realized if she opened the oven door she could stand on it and reach even higher. So using just a little bit of leverage I was able to pop the oven door out and now we don't have that problem any more, and she doesn't even care any more.
