We did a lot of research before choosing this play kitchen. I didn't want a big plastic one sitting in our kitchen. This one is beautiful and has fun features my little ones love. They like turning knobs, opening doors and getting ice from the ice maker. There is plenty of space to store play food and cooking supplies. It is the perfect size for toddlers and preschoolers. My older kids get on their knees to play with the younger ones in it. Assembly was easy to follow and took about an hour.
