Great Gourmet Kitchen Set

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was super easy to out together. Sturdy and looks amazing. My daughter was so happy and excited to play chef when we had it together. The kitchen literally has everything a little cook could want. She can make coffee just like me in her kitchen with her coffee pods and coffee pot. She loves the fact that the coffee cups even look like mine. Cute sounds activate when you set a pot or pan down on the electronic burner. Has a fridge and microwave and of course the oven. I love that this brings out so much imaginary play. Makes everything complete with a strainer, cups, plates and utensils. I would definitely buy another play kitchen in a heartbeat. Absolutely love ours.

Bought for my 18 month old granddaughter, it will be a good product for a few years. She's way too short for many items, which is great because she's using what she can and even started in a week to do pretend play. I like the sounds the stove makes and the pods for the coffee maker that are perfect for her puzzle-fitting learning. I was pleased that there are pots and plates, I was disappointed that there were no vegetables or fruit - nor did I see any note that these were not included. I would have bought it at the same time. I think this should be clearer.

This kitchen is awesome! It's so modern and gives children the feel of a real "household kitchen" that they can explore and find similarities between the two. It has sturdy parts, easy to use instructions, lots of fun accessories and so much more. We did have a slight issue with a sticking refrigerator door, but once we contacted Step 2, they were quick to help us get it fixed. Our kids love to use the K-cup coffee maker feature and the "phone/tablet" accessory. They love all the little compartments where they can stash their fun trinkets. This kitchen is very gender neutral and helps us teach the children that boys/men belong in the kitchen too. Everyone can take turns being chefs, bakers, parents, entertainers and homemakers as they pretend-play with this kitchen! Endless hours of fun are had each day and I'm sure there is lots more fun to be had in the future!

Thank you to Step2 for letting me test the Great Gourmet Kitchen in Tan as part of the Step2 toy tester program!I can't say enough good things about this adorable and very modern play kitchen! My son loves to help me in the kitchen so I've been looking for some time now for the perfect little kitchen for him to practice his culinary skills in and this one's it! It even has a great pass-through window so he can play with his little sister aka his official imaginary food taste tester.I love how sophisticated it looks - it actually matches my kitchen finishes which makes it feel more like an extension of the real kitchen for my son. He has so much fun with all of the realistic details like the incredibly cute coffee pod system, the smart phone and its dock in the countertop, and the stove top which lights up and makes frying or boiling sounds depending on whether you place the pan or the pot on it.Speaking of accessories, this kitchen comes with some great ones, starting with the "copper" pot and pan (with lids), an assortment of matching cooking utensils which can hang from a multitude of well placed hooks, a kid-sized potholder for taking things out of the double oven or microwave, a complete dish set for two including "silverware", and salt and pepper shakers that you can grind.The knobs on the stove click when you adjust them and there are loads of other great details like a moving faucet in the double sink, adjustable clock hands for learning about time, a little chalk board perfect for showing "Today's Specials" and a pretend water dispenser on the fridge door.There is also a tonne of storage - despite the small footprint of this kitchen (which makes it perfect for small spaces), this kitchen packs a big punch. It even comes with two removable storage bins - which my son loves to fill with "fresh" fruit and veggies - and an adorable little green reusable shopping bag so he can pick out his own produce when we go out to the Farmer's Market!

I have been meaning to do this so thank you.This kitchen is perfect in every way and no regrets buying 2 for each of my grandkids for Christmas. However, a couple of suggestions for improvement: 1) We selected this particular model because it had the widest base for stability. But it can use a few more inches in depth as it is still wobbly on carpet and on a hard floor. 2) There are 4 utensils that come with it but only 3 hooks to hang them on. 3) The plates are too flat. Any playfood you put on it slides right off "immediately". They need to be larger and concave. 4) The plates and bowls do not fit in the upper compartment where they need to be. 5) it would be nice if the chalkboard is actually usable with a no mess chalk. The picture shows it but it is not a real chalkboard and there was no chalk included. that's all!
