It took close to 2 hours for us to get it all together (anxious 3 year old). My husband tried using the app to help get it together but wasn't a fan because he said it didn't tell him what number parts to use. So he went ahead & use the good old paper instruction sheets given. Once he finished it and all set up, I loved how detailed the kitchen is & how sturdy it was. Even loved the strap in the back you can use to secure to wall so not to fall on child. The sound effects of the stove & microwave kids just love. The microwave is a bit loud but they love the sound of it. The kitchen set does come with 3 little ice cubes for the fridge to dispense. My 3 year old was just head over hills for her new kitchen.
