OK, let's be honest - I got this set because I wanted to play with the watermelon and the loaf of bread MYSELF. But this is such a fantastic toy, my 2 year old daughter loves it too. 

Her favorite is the sliced bread, which she loves to use to make real sandwiches using her felt veggies from another toy set. She loves being able to use the wooden knife to cut the foods and chops them up like a pro. 

We've been playing with this for the past month everyday for hours on end. The Velcro pieces are holding up nicely. But a bit of the paint has started chipping where the cuts happen. The carrot in our set also doesn't chop into 4 pieces, instead its cut lengthwise (long) so only 2 pieces- which actually is better since there are less pieces to misplace.  

All in all, a GREAT toy. Something my daughter plays withe everyday so well worth the money!
