My grandchildren LOVE this toy!  They pretend they're cooking hot dogs and hamburgers, and then serve them to me or any other adult nearby.  Right now we have the grill in the family room, but we plan on putting it in their playhouse.  It can easily be used in the house or outside.  It's a great toy to encourage children's imaginations and their enthusiasm for cooking.  It's also a great value.  My grandchildren play with it everyday.
