I just received these today after ordering them from another site and while they are cute and I am sure my daughter will enjoy playing with them, the quality is actually not what I was anticipating. The salt and pepper skakers don't have a bottom and feel flimsy like they could be crushed fairly easily, the "sporks" have leftover threads of plastic stuck between all of the tines, and everything seemes a little rough and unfinished. There are also little flaws of leftover plastic from where these must have been separated from each other in production on the side of each and every piece. The plastic does seem solid (other than the shakers) and once I clean up the manufacturing 'leftovers' of rough plastic I am sure my daughter will love them. Just be prepared to smooth out rough edges and peel off residual plastic before giving these to your child to play with!

I had been looking for a set that my daughter and her friends could safely use with real food & liquids. After researching and reading all of the reviews on this product and seeing the actual box cover on another site (there is milk in one of the cups), I thought this was exactly what I wanted. However, when I opened it, I noticed immediately that the cups and bowls have holes at the bottom!

Suffice it to say, I plan to buy another set now and will let her play with this one until the other one arrives (it's not worth the shipping to return it). Since no reviewer has mentioned the holes before, I thought I should give a warning to other parents who are looking for a more realistic set for their children.

I had a hard time finding dishes for someone under 3 years of age. these were perfect for a 2 year old. she really enjoys them, and loves making "soup Hot" for her daddy. it includes pots and pans and little a spatula and serving spoon so she learns how to use these things. It helps with dexterity

Our son loved to cook-just like mommy and daddy and like some of the chefs he sees on Food Network! We had a lot of trouble finding a pots and pans set made for kids under 3. This set has a good selection of different sized pots and pans and he loves the salt and pepper shakers! I love that it is safe and gender neutral! I mean-not all cooks are girls-so why are so many of the sets pink? We love this set and we are getting one for a friend's son as well.

This pots & pans set came with my daughter's LifeStyle Deluxe Kitchen, and she absolutely loves them. Another review had claimed the plastic was as durable and the edges were rough.. but not mine. They were all smooth and very durable. There were absolutely no flaws with the ones that we received.

My daughter loves playing with them. They are very durable, and will not break, fade, chip or anything - they are not cheaply made like other pots / pans sets on the market. I highly recommend this set for any toddler to play with - it is a very good product and very realistic too (unlike other sets available).

This is a wonderful pot and pan set. After looking far and wide and even buying one set (and promptly returning the flimsy stuff) I found this and have been extremely pleased with it. It's tough like Tupperware: very firm and durable, and the lids are very easy to get on and off. And you've got to love the color, which is a lot more realistic than the purple and pink cooksets that are out there. Yeah, there were some little pieces of plastic stuck between the tines of the sporks, but you can't expect perfection for $15. And you can't beat the fact that this is made in the USA!

As a little girl, I was obsessed with play food and kitchen stuff. Now that I have a little girl of my own, she's getting into it, too! Fun for me! For Christmas we bought her a Step2 Lifestyle kitchen and it came with this set as a bonus. These pots and pans FAR surpass anything that I ever owned as a child as well as anything I've seen in stores. They are VERY durable plastic. Not soft and bendable, but NOT hard or something that will crack or break. The lids fit snugly, seemingly almost with an airtight seal. I love that this set isn't bright crazy colors that are unrealistic, and I also love that they match the kitchen beautifully. I am going to buy a second set so that I have four plates, cups and bowls for tea parties when she gets a bit older. You can't beat the price for this quality!

As an added note, I would just like to say that if you're looking for great play food for your child's play kitchen, I would NOT go with the Step2 set. The pieces are very small and not as high quality as one would hope. The hamburger patty was about 2" at best and the bun is just as small. I highly recommend Learning Resources food. It's very lifelike, most pieces are true to size, and it is well worth the extra money for what you get! I have bought four sets for my daughter and I have been consistently pleased. :)

I bought the same set 11 years ago, though just a little different for my first daughter and recently purchased it for my 2 youngest children 1 and 3. It provides hours of amusement everyday, they love to pretend to make all kinds of dinner. The colors are great because little boys like to cook too, this is a great set colorwise because most are targeted to towards girls. Overall, a very durable toy, can be ran through the dishwasher top rack and there are no pieces that pose hazards..great deal for a low price.

I bought these with the Step 2 complete kitchen for my 20-month-old granddaughter. She loves them! I bought them as a starter set, but it is such a nice collection that she does not need many other pieces for a long time. I have washed them in the top rack of my dishwasher, and they clean well. They are durable; the plastic is sturdy and does not bend or twist. I will soon add a food collection for her, as the kitchen and the pots and pans are a favorite.

I like the look of this place set - rather than the unrealistic multi colored ones. My daughter likes them.. plays with them all the time.
