5.0 out of 5 stars looks perfect with Disney theme bedroom. GREAT BUY.... and oh read May 27, 2011

I purchased this for my son and daughter, who share ALL OF THEIR TOYS ( .... joking they fight over everything). I needed to get an upgrade to their existing plastic kitchen set; I had purchased from a local discount store. Albeit, functional, just way too small for the little guys to play on simultaneously. Now in terms of color, the "vintage" blue is a pale eggshell,finish. It's very muted, and works great in a room with muted colors. It does look exactly like the picture, and has "great" durability. This is more than a toy- it's furniture. In terms of construction, it's on par with a crib or changing table. I read many reviews on the time it takes to put together. And I have to admit, it does take several hours,and carefully reading the directions. It's not too difficult to follow, just super time consuming. I am fairly handy, and it took me 4 hours. Do not take any of the steps for granted, during assembly. It is crucial to follow each and every step - to the letter. Or it will not assemble right at all. There are NO EXTRA PARTS,other than 2 A/B screw/bolt combination. So read, read read. I can't stress it enough- READ ALL THE DIRECTIONS. The end products is a beautiful piece of furniture. PAYING LESS FOR THE COLOR, is a smart buy.

enjoy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good enough December 25, 2011

We were really excited to get this as a Christmas gift for my 16-mo baby girl. When she saw it on Christmas morning, needless to say, she was fascinated. She loves opening doors and turning knobs etc whether it's a toy kitchen or not. So it's great that she has one of her own to grow with. I got it at a discount and therefore am happy that I was able to get her a wood kitchen in lieu of a plastic one. It was not difficult to assemble tho it's not a fast assembly, but fun! Overall construction appears sturdy for now. Also included are plastic straps (not sure how dependable) to brace the entire toy kitchen to the wall to prevent falling on kids! Great idea.
Drawbacks -
1. Color/ paint scratches easily. We've only assembled it last night and played with it for 1 hr this morning. It's mdf construction but paint job not so scratch-resistant.
2. Screws for the little feet do not fit. For now, it will sit directly on the floor. That impedes the lower doors from opening since we have carpet and the lower doors go all the way to the floor. I will try their customer service for replacement parts.
3. Altho all the panels are made of mdf which is strong, the 'accessories' such as phone, knobs, burners, faucet, handles, pole - all of it - are plastic. It would've been great if these were also painted wood. Surprisingly the paint chips off the plastic pieces as well.
4. One horizontal piece at the top of the kitchen and the side panel of the microwave are cut too long. Unless this is intentional, they prevent the unit from being snug against the wall.
I might write directly to Kidcraft to suggest design changes/ideas.
But in general, we are happy with it!

1.0 out of 5 stars Soooooo disappointed! February 22, 2012

By J. Taube

My husband and I were so excited to get this kitchen for our daughter this past Christmas. When my husband opened the box to put it together we were completely shocked by how smelly the paint was! He went ahead and put it together, thinking it would air out over time, but even after a week it still reeked. My chest actually would tighten when I was near it. We moved it into a back bedroom and shut the door to keep our daughter away from it, and the whole bedroom smelled like a giant spray paint can had exploded! I called Kidkraft, and they said several complaints had been made but that the only problem was the pieces had been wrapped before completely drying and that it should air out. When I said it still smelled horrible, they said to get a replacement. The replacement was exactly the same. We could smell the paint through the box--before we even opened the box at all! We sent it back as well and have chosen not to use this company.

On the plus side, Amazon was really great about the replacement kitchen and prompt refunds for the return.

Love it....but not sure why the blue is priced higher. One of the doors didn't close right - hinge bound. I called Kidkraft and they were wonderful!

First of all, I wish all things came as well packed, labeled, and instructed as this item! It did take me and my 18 month old 3 hours to put it together, because she was helping of course! It's excellent quality materials, and every last detail is perfect in this kitchen! I love it and so does she!!!!

My kids and I love this vintage wooden kitchen. I have no negative comments except that it is a bit on the small side. It is perfect for my two year old but my four year old son just towers over it.

Assembly instructions are not as clear as they could be so be attentive. Place pieces together before securing with screws to make sure you have everything lined up correctly. I had to disassemble and re-orient a panel because it was not clear how to line it up based on the directions. Some pieces are assembled more easily if you do it out of order from what the directions tell you due to the the need for screw drivers that don't fit into little spaces.

The the plastic parts will be easily damaged over time but I guess that's the breaks. A piece on the phone broke within 24hrs but I was easily able to crazy glue it back together and it's perfectly fine now.

My 12mth old ran to it and went wild right away. The door catches are too tight for him to open now but will be fine when he is older. I think the size of the unit is just right.
