I bought this as soon as I saw it in the store, and it's a winner. I love the fact that the Happy Family sets aren't all pink and purple, and with the exception of the Birthday Party/ playground set they're well-made for the price. This little grocery store is adorable! The shelves are actually big enough to hold all the grocery pieces, plus some others I've found from kitchen sets I've purchased. The only serious flaw is that the apples are all in a big bunch, and you can't just take a couple off the shelves to play with. Even though I bought this for my collection, my daughters begged to play with it, and they've had a ball. They love the little cart for Ryan, and it's held up very well. For the price, this grocery store is loads of fun, sure to keep kids of any age entertained.

My daughter thinks this one is great. We were lucky to get the shopping Midge along with this supermarket set. Lots of pretend food to play with. Since Mattel has come out with Happy Family dolls, houses, and gift sets we have managed to get all of them. I am running out of room to put these things. I see that Midge and Allen have some new neighbors. Can't wait until I find these sets. Thanks MATTEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My daughter received both this set and the Midge with shopping cart set together from Santa this year. She and I both love this toy! It's fabulous to be able to actually put the items on the shelf and have them stay! The only thing I can possibly find wrong with this is the little cardboard squares that fit on the back of each shelf. They have pictures of the foods/items that belong on that shelf to give the store that fully-stocked look about it. I assume these stay on the shelves, or at least I KNOW we're leaving ours on there for appearance sake...however, they tend to fall over from time to time, knocking over the food on the shelf...or they are buckled in the middle, making it difficult to set the food on the shelves...my solution is a simple one...tape or glue and you're all set.

I'm more than pleased with this set as well as the Midge with shopping cart set. They both go hand-in-hand and I most definitely recommend purchasing both together for that special child in your life.
