What We Think

Fun factor:
Durability:
Ease of assembly:
Educational factor:
Novelty factor:

The Good: Plenty of opportunity for imaginative play and "cooking."

The Challenging: With so many screws and bolts, a powered screwdriver is recommended.

In a Nutshell: A colorful, kid-sized, classic kitchen set.


The sink includes cute pink-and-blue knobs. View larger.


The four-burner stove-top looks just like the real thing! View larger.
Large in Size, Plenty of Gadgets
The Large Kitchen measures 42 x 16 x 42-inches (HxDxW) and weighs 83 pounds -- making it large enough for kids to "cook" without hunching over. This heavy, durable play set will stand up to years of wear and tear. The bright, fluorescent-colored kitchen comes with working doors, knobs, and other gadgets -- such as the clock with its spinning hands.

The kitchen's stove top has realistic burners, the oven and microwave both have see-through windows to "check on your food," and the sink is removable for easy clean up. The kitchen also has shelving above the sink for quick and easy storage.

Due to the kitchen's size, there is quite a bit of adult assembly required. We would recommend using a powered screwdriver to save time and frustration.

Great for Creative Play
The Large Kitchen provides numerous opportunities for interactive and imaginative play. Your child can enjoy making a meal for you, or perhaps "cooking" dinner right alongside you. Since the Large Kitchen is appealing to a wide range of ages, it is a play set that ideal for families with multiple children. Older and younger kids can cook together without being crowded.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, August 7, 2009
Durability:2.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: KidKraft Large Kitchen (Toy)
Our Kidcraft Kitchen Set is a year old. My daughter received it for her second birthday and after a few months of gentle play, the refrigerator door fell off. We continue to use it, but the particle board where the top of the door attached previously broke off, so the door falls off pretty much whenever anyone touches it. We've spent the last year trying to rig the door back on, but have been unsuccessful.

There are a few redeeming features. It's a taller unit than many others, so it works well for our tall daughter. The sink and stove height are perfect for her - she doesn't have to stoop down to play. I also like that the stove and sink area give her enough "work space" to prepare her food. The color scheme is nice - not too bright or tacky. It blends in with the rest of our playroom. Kids love playing with the oven knobs. The hands of the clock on the side actually move, but my daughter hasn't noticed them yet. The phone and notepad on the side are stickers and... Read more

This review is from: KidKraft Large Kitchen (Toy)
My daughter received this kitchen from Santa 3 years ago when she was not quite 2 years old. I wanted something that was made from mdf or composite so it would be extremely heavy, yet not plastic or cheap. She has loved it from the moment she got it. We carved out a place in our kitchen for it and it's become a permanent fixture. While I'm busy fixing dinner, she goes over and fixes dinner. It has an endless amount of playtime and requires her to use her own imaginiation- no sound effects included with this one! Now that she's learning to read she even sounds out the grocery list that is painted on the fridge door. A clock on the side with moveable minute and hour hands is a great educational bonus as well. I can't even count the number of times she has "taken my order." This was by far one of the best toy investments we've ever made. It gets played with by every kid who comes in our door- no matter what age or gender. Fair warning, though- because this is a sturdy item of high... Read more

Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: KidKraft Large Kitchen (Toy)
We researched this product and were so pleased to find the good reviews. Unfortunately, ours must have been one too many off the assembly line. Within 24 hours two doors had broken off and by the second week a third. One review stated that these were "real" wood however I should have called the company directly because when the doors rip off you can plainly see they are pressed composite. Although our daughter likes it keep in mind there is no prep surface so if you like us bought mixers or toasters there is no flat surface to work on. I like to think my kids are pretty typical and this wasn't a rough play incident. Very dissapointing.
