I wanted a kitchen set that would occupy my daughter (4 y.o) for a few years- some other brands seem more fitting for younger kids, and when I viewed them at a local box store, I was shocked how small and chincy they appeared. This one arrived in less than a week, took me about a solid 3 + hours to put together. The time could've been cut down a bit by a little better labeling of some pieces. I have it a 4 star rating because some of the pieces were scuffed up a bit. All in all I would (and have) recommended this product and this website to others.
