It doesn't come with the bells and whistles like other play kitchens, but it also doesn't come with the hefty pricetag or required # of batteries either.  A few things to point out:  it doesn't come with a spatula as pictured (um, how are they supposed to "cook"??); the "drawer you think would open for the utensils is just a sticker (as in, no drawer); and the plates don't stay in the slots, they just roll out.
