2.0 out of 5 stars Boring - buy a dollhouse instead!, August 6, 2007

This review is from: Barbie Play All Day Kitchen Doll #1 (Toy)

The real problem with this kitchen is that it's very boring. There just isn't anything to do once it's set up.

The toy is like a wall of kitchen. The wall has a refrigerator with opening doors, lower cabinets with a built-in oven (none of the doors or drawers work - they are just molded in), a counter with a sink, a window with cute fabric curtains and 2 open upper cabinets with silverware drawers below. The back of the fridge and open cabinets is cardboard with printed food.

The fridge has side by side opening doors, a molded icemaker, and 5 shelves. The set comes with many tiny accessories, including food, pots, pans, plates, utensils, and a blender.

But there's nothing to do! Once you organize the accessories on the shelves, there is nothing left. No table to set, no chair to sit on. The oven door doesn't open, and there isn't a cooktop to set the pots on. So the only activity would be to put some dishes in the sink and "wash" them.

The quality is nothing special. Just molded plastic, though they do have a few cute details. The cardboard backing slips out occasionally, and has bowed on our set.

The doll is a basic, blonde Barbie who wears denim capris, a print top and an apron. Decent enough doll, but not a reason to select this set.

Bottom line - save your money and choose something that's fun to play with.

Compared to other Barbie/Mattel products available today this one is sturdy, cute and well made. With all it comes with a better bargain overall. I make a lot of my own furniture, etc. for our hobby but couldn't make anything so cute without tons of work. Nice that the entire kitchen is included PlUS just try TO FIND UTENSILS ETC. FOR her!

It's ok, but the problem is the back of the kitchen is cardboard and it falls out of place alot. Basically everytime my daughter would try to put items into the cupboards the back is cardboard and would fall out. It also does not stand well. My daughter played a short time with it and hasn't touched it since.
