Product Description

Editorial Review

Play kitchens are favorite toddler toys, but they often take up a tremendous amount of space. This scaled-down version provides all sorts of fun activities and fits neatly in even the smallest of rooms. The unit itself stands approximately 16.5 inches tall, 22 inches wide, and 8.5 inches deep. There's a refrigerator with a bright yellow door that has a shape sorter on the outside: insert the shapes, then push the button, and the shapes drop into the waiting pot just like an icemaker dispensing ice. Open the refrigerator drawer and just look at all the (sticker) food on the pretend shelves! The red microwave and white oven have functional, bright green doors. A purple sink and countertop sport a white faucet and blue burner. Turn the yellow timer knob below the burner and the timer ticks and rings. Set the included, smiling orange frying pan on the burner and the imaginary food immediately starts to sizzle. Place the smiling green pot on the stove and listen to pretend water bubble and boil. Also included are an oversized measuring spoon and spatula, a phone with a wall bracket, and three plastic shapes for the shape sorter/ice dispenser. Let's get cooking! --Tami Horiuchi

5.0 out of 5 stars One great compact kitchen!, July 27, 2000

I recommend this kitchen to anyone w/ a child under 2 because of its size. My daughter doesn't stand to well yet. But she likes to sit in the floor and play with it. Since it is not very tall she is able to reach everything while sitting. Her favorite thing is to put the ice cubes in the dispenser and then get them back out. Which is educational for learning shapes. Also the stove that bubbles and sizzles is so cute and not to loud. This kitchen is very compact and doesn't take up much room. I was looking for a kitchen that had everything and this one does. For the price this is a great value and a great starter kitchen. My daughter has every toy imaginable and out of all them this is her favorite. I also added a cash register and some play food w/ this and she plays for hours.

3.0 out of 5 stars The good the bad and the teeny tiny, October 18, 2001

First, the good. I bought this toy for my daughter's 1st birthday. Her grandma bought her the Nesting Pots and Pans. She really enjoyed putting the pots and pans in the microwave and over. She also liked using the shape sorter on the fridge and pushing the button to release the shapes. Now the bad. It is a TEENY TINY kitchen. Do not expect your child to grow with this toy. In fact, I had put mine into storage when my daughter was 15 mo old. She still plays with the pots and pans. But this kitchen is not for playing pretend. The features are too small to cook or wash dishes. If your child tries to stand next to it he or she will tower over it. It is great for an infant who can sit up on her own, but not for a child who wants to have make-believe play.

1.0 out of 5 stars more dangerous than fun, October 14, 2000

I bought the Little Tikes discovery sound kitchen for my 9 month old granddaughter. She liked the different shapes and putting them in the right holes in the frig and pushing the green button to retrieve them. BUT, she pinched her cute little fingers several times in the top of the frig door. Secondly, the kitchen is easily pulled over and in opening the frig door she repeatedly pulled the kitchen over on top of her. Needless to say, I returned the toy the next day.
