I purchased this for my 2 year old for Christmas.  I looked at play kitchens for hours and finally settled on this one for a number of reasons.  1) the design of the kitchen is functional and has a good amount of counter space, cupboards and drawers.  2) the look of the kitchen fits with my decor and doesn't stand out, i.e. the color scheme is neutral.  3)  Has a number of interactive features, the burners, oven, microwave, and my child's favorite the phone.  4) The size is just right for a small to medium space, but does allow several children to play at once.  It was her favorite present and she hasn't stopped playing with it since.  Worth the time to put it together and the investment.  I would definitely recommend this kitchen!
