I was a little hesitant to purchase this based on the other reviews but did - and it came in and *heart eyes emoji* it’s totally as cute in person as it is in the photos! Modern, sleek, thoughtful play kitchen! It comes with a metal pot, metal pan, metal spatula - all have metal hooks to hang them on, 3 “cuttable” (velcro) wooden carrots and 3 beets, teal planter boxes to set them in with brown foam inserts to hold them in place, chalkboard menu/inspiration/recipe wall and chalkboard labels for the planters, 3 ice cubes that come out of the dispenser on the refrigerator, a wooden knife WITH a thoughtful slot to store it, a wooden cutting board with a hook on the left side to hang it on, 2 collapsible wood-printed “drawer” inserts for storage, a removable oven shelf/rack, farmhouse sink, a faucet that lights up AND makes water noises (batteries already installed), 2 “gas” burners that also light up and make noise (batteries already installed). Goes very well with Melissa and Doug wooden food/crates.
Most of the kitchen is particle board. Backsplash & back panels are made of that thick cardboard stuff most adult furniture comes with nowadays. I think the quality is so great for the cost, it’s not plastic but it’s also not a clunky bright blue red and yellow colored kitchen in the middle of your living room, and it’s also not all “real wood” and won’t cost you $600. Took 2 people to set up, about 1hr. One person mostly for helping hold parts in place. Instructions don’t have words but pretty self explanatory once you understand what the final product should look like, and understand which way the pieces should face. We did have to loosen a couple screws in order to shimmy a few pieces in the right slots - but tightened everything back up fine with no stripping problems. Comes with a few spare parts (:
Also shipped to Hawaii for F R E E ! ! Arrived undamaged.
Such a cute way to teach our little ones about “farm to table”. Love it. Buy it!!!
We ordered this kitchen as a replacement for another one that my kids got for Christmas that was too small. After reading the reviews, I knew this one would be the perfect size for them as they grow. My kids are 2 and 4. This came in today and I immediately put it together. I used the BILT app as other reviewers suggested and it made assembly a breeze. I did it by myself in about 2 hours. This kitchen is the cutest I’ve ever seen! It even has an ice maker with ice cubes! My kiddos absolutely love it, and I am so glad we upgraded to this gorgeous play kitchen. Just buy it, you won’t regret it. :)
If you’re like me and struggling to find a “boy” kitchen or something gender neutral look no further. I am so happy we decided to purchase this kitchen. I was looking for a kitchen for my five year old son. I wanted something big enough for him; but not too big for our space. It’s actually so nice to look at that it’s right next to my kitchen so we can cook together! I didn’t even have to banish it to the basement play zone. It’s perfect.
First, the style is trendy and neutral. It’s a pretty “manly” kitchen, IMO. The teal window boxes are a nice pop of color. Boys and girls will love it!
The details added make this kitchen stand apart from the rest. When you turn on the faucet a blue light comes on to simulate water, along with the sound of running water. The stove burners glow red and make the sound just like an ignighting gas burner, followed by the sound of a bubbling pot when they’re turned on. None of the noises are obnoxious or loud and they are on short timers just in case someone accidentally leaves the water running or the stove on. The refrigerator door has an ice maker that will drop plastic cubes of ice into a cup. The rod to hang pans and utensils on helps keep the kitchen looking clean and classy. The two soft wood look bins are wonderful for storage and bonus...they are quiet! The oven rack slides out and there’s more storage underneath for extra pans or cookie sheets. The kitchen comes with three beets and three carrots that kids can cut with the included wooden knife and cutting board. Kiddos can store the veggies in adorable window boxes. There’s a peg on the side to store the cutting board, and a knife holder on the small shelf beneath the chalkboard. It comes with a couple of metal pans and a metal spatula. They truly thought of everything! This kitchen does not disappoint!!
We purchased the Melissa & Doug 22-Piece Play Kitchen Accessories Set to compliment this kitchen; as well as Learning Resources play food. (This is the best quality play food!!)
Probably the most adorable kitchen I have found. With that being said we were so excited to get it and my 2 almost 3 year old was just the same. Instructions were terrible. 2 parts didn’t line up correctly and the screws destroyed several areas and popped through the wood within seconds of carefully screwing in. Icing on the cake was one viewable piece already being chipped. Total bummer !
If they could fix directions and quality of wood I’d say it’s the cutest looking kitchen out there.
I bought this for my sons 5th Birthday. He had a plastic kitchen that he received for his 2nd birthday that we played with daily, multiple times per day but it did not have enough storage. So I decided to purchase this kitchen for him so that he could have a more "grown up' better quality kitchen with a lot more storage for a smallish space. We could not be happier! It was easy to put together. Just time consuming. But it was well worth it since he LOVES it. I'm going to put a small strand of Christmas lights on the top to decorate it for Christmas.
This product is super cute, but it is super cheap!!! We're not even finished putting it together and THREE pieces of wood have split. It is a pain in the butt to put together. And the best part is that an hour after I ordered this it shipped, which was awesome right? Wrong, I clicked on the item again to show my aunt how cute it was and they had already marked it down $10. Now, two days later it is marked down $15. So, horrible product AND horrible company!
Pros
-Overall the kitchen looks nice
-Toddler loves to play with it
-Nice range of features. I especially love how easy the knife "cuts" through the fruit
-Good height that my 20 mo. old can grow into
-Seems durable/scratch resistant so far
Cons
- The plate on which the faucet sits was too far back if we followed the holes that came pre-drilled, so we drilled our own and made it line up.
-The plate on which the faucet sits appears to be too wide and sticks further back than the rest of the parts
-You have to do a lifting up motion on the fridge and oven door in order to fully close them. A toddler doesn't know how to do this.
-The ice machine is a bit sticky and difficult for even myself to get out sometimes.
Let's be realistic, this kitchen is NOT easy to assemble, because you really have to pay your dues and spend 1-2 hours to build it. However, once it's built it so worth it!
A lot of my friends saw pictures of our new kitchen, and they thought it was made by a really expensive brand. Everyone wants one now because it's just such a beautiful kitchen.
However, I do want to mention a few things as I think they may be deal breaker for some of the parents out there:
-No microwave (but you can purchase separate microwave toys as an add-on)
-Oven door does NOT open from top to bottom, opens left to right
-The chopping board was not sanded/filed properly, felt really rough and could cut my daughter if she played with it before we fixed the problem
-the compartment below the oven does not close properly, you would have to know to lift it then push to close (I don't think young toddlers will understand this)
Still a great kitchen tho! so elegant and pretty! :)
The girls got the Farm to table play kitchen
We had a lot to choose from but with us growing our own vegetables this one was the best pick.
The sink lights up to let you know the water is on, the stove top makes cooking sounds, has a cutting board and little knife to cut up the vegetables. Also a chalkboard to write notes or put up a menu. Large enough for 2 to play nicely.
It did take me 2 hours to set it up but I was very happy to have the app Bilt along with the step by step instructions to look over made the set up a lot easier for me.. I think this is going to have hours and hours of play.
We love to use our imaginations.
