Keeps the kids cooking
Keeps my 2yr old entertained long enough that I can finish whatever task I may be working on. He loves to cook mommy meals and watch me inhale them so quickly. He's really enjoyed having this gift and looks forward to playing with it every day. Looks like I may need to get the larger one in a few years when he's ready for an upgrade.

Horrible kitchen
I bought this kitchen for my 2 year old daughter. The commercial got me. Loved the idea that it can grow with her over the years. Then we got it and put it together and it's so poorly made. The plastic is bulky. None of the doors on the kitchen closes completely. My toddler has to put extra energy into opening and closing doors that it knocks over the plates, cups, pans, etc. The food that comes with it is bulky as well. It takes great precision to balance the hot dog on the bun, or even worse the hamburger patty on the bun. Worst toy ever. I plan on returning it for an engineered wooden kitchen.

    Fun for Toddler
    1 star for Walmart harassing me with way too many emails to rate the product. I gave you my money now leave me alone. 4 stars for the product itself. Plastic doors don't line up and close properly otherwise good.

    Cook n grow kitchen
    Small things could use a change like having the stove hood more secure and the back pins a little more durable. Other than that 5/5! 3 year old and 9 month old both get to play with it in the different stages. Super easy to change configuration.

    Great playset for kids
    My son loves playing with the kitchen set. However the handles such as the microwave and fridge are very hard to open for kids. Therefore, you cant proper close them or else they can't open it. The microwave door doesnt close tight properly as well.

    Nice kitchen but a little damaged
    Kitchen is as described and even has some pleasant surprises. When you put the pot on the stove it makes a boiling sound. When you put the fry pan on the stove it makes a sizzling noise. Only issue is the front face of the kitchen was scraped up in several locations.

    Exactly what i hoped it would be!
    I bought this for my 2.5 year old twins for Christmas and they loved it! The smaller setting on this would be used for around a 1-1.5 year old in my opinion and 2+ for the taller setting. I love that it came with food and dishes as a starter for the kids! Shipping was fast but UPS messed up the delivery and sent it to the wrong address. Thankfully after calling them I found out it was only a block away so I went to pick it up myself. Considering getting another on for my niece's 1st birthday.

    Classic
    My daughter fell in love with this product right away. She practice now washing hands before and after everything which help her in everyday activity lol! The assembling not hard but be careful of the two springs hooks that you will pull to snap the back of the connection that might brake easily. I recommend this product.

    My toddler loves it!
    My 19 month old really loves this little kitchen. He's really into "playing kitchen" lately, so this is just perfect for him. The included accessories are just the right size and there's not too little or too many of them. Right out of the box, the components of the kitchen had weird little plastic shavings everywhere. I had to vacuum each piece thoroughly and then wipe everything down with a damp cloth. Assembly was pretty easy. The worst part was trying to apply the decals (stickers). They are VERY sticky and the first few ended up in the trash because they got stuck to my fingers and ripped. The only other issue I had was with the hook that the phone is supposed to hang from. The holes drilled for the hook were off, but drilling new holes won't work because then the holes would merged into one big hole (if that makes sense). Overall, it's a really good value, seems durable, my toddler really enjoys it, and it was pretty easy to assemble. I'd recommend it over some of the more expensive options out there.

    A Great Kitchen for Toddler
    My 15 month old Daughter and 4 yr old son love playing with this kitchen .I have it set up on the Preschool position so they can both reach the kitchen. My 15 month old loves to open & close cabinet doors and loves the Shapes Sorting Pot....I have had it for 2 weeks and they play everyday...I have gone though a lot of kitchens and this one doesn't have all the bells n' whistles , But if perfect for toddlers. I didn't want to worry about too many little pieces that can break off or be too over whelming for her ......This kitchen has just enough for her to play and not be so over whelming at the same time. It is very durable even for my 4 yr old boy! I'm expecting another Girl at the end of this month , So I wanted something geared towards toddlers since then it will be my two girls using it more. I went to Toys R Us to check it out there and they wanted $120 .I left there and went online Walmart and wanted $79 plus I received Free shipping right to my door. I'm very satisfied, But If my children were older I would go with a Kitchen more suited for older children! A lot of these kitchens have age appropriate ages right on the info or box , So check it out before you make you decision :)

    Good but could be better...
    First off, I ordered this online, free site to store, even though our local Walmart had it. It was $90 in the store but only $79 online. I'm not sure why the same product was two different prices but, it made sense for me to save the $10 and change. I got it home and my husband put it together and saw that the plastic was scuffed in places and one of the doors didn't close all the way and another was hard for me to open so my 1 year old was definitely not getting in. We packaged it back up and brought it back to the store and they gave us a new one. We brought it home and put it together and it was definitely better than the first one but the doors still stick and my son gets frustrated sometimes. This is nothing against Walmart - I just think the kitchen is not made well. That being said, my son loves it. His eyes lit up on Christmas morning when he pulled the sheet off of it. He walks around talking on the phone and loves to serve us food. He always stores the phone in the microwave though because the phone is hard to get on the 'phone hook' for a toddler. We bought lots of extra play food to go with it but it does come with some decent stuff. I'm happy with the purchase - I just really wish the quality was better when it comes to the doors fitting and closing and opening the way they are supposed to.

    Great Kitchen for Growing Toddler
    We love this kitchen. It is perfect for my 1 year-old daughter who is on the shorter side. It keeps her preoccupied for hours. I had my doubts that she would even be interested in it just yet. However, she instantly became attached. I would highly recommend it to my friends (in fact, a couple of my friends already had this kitchen and recommended it to me!). I wanted a Christmas present that would last for a couple years. And that's what I got.

    Product does not ship in original box
    Product appeared well priced on the site but it was shipped in a corrugated cardboard box, without any original Little Tikes packaging (i.e. no box with printed graphics, etc.). We purchased this as a gift and due to the lack of the original manufacturer's packaging, it was unsuitable as a gift - it looked like it was used or we picked it up from a yard sale. Before ordering please verify with Walmart that the product will be shipped in an original Little Tikes box - or else you'll receive it as a collection of loose pieces packaged in a corrugated cardboard box.

    There's so many things my children were able to do with the Cook 'N Grow Kitchen, including imaginative play, which they really enjoy. It is fun for them to play “Iron Chef” and having food contests (can you tell we are big Food Network fans?) and the cooking sounds make it seem more realistic to them. The toy is geared to kids 18 months and up and my kids loved opening and closing the doors of the microwave, oven, and refrigerator. The special aspect of this kitchen is that it grows with your child. I love that it can be adjusted to two different heights to enable it to be the perfect size for toddlers and young children. Another great thing about it is that it comes with more than 50 accessories, including food items, kitchen utensils, cookware, and cups and dishes. For the toy kitchens that I have purchased in the past, I always needed to purchase a separate set of the food items, so that was really nice for a change. You can set up the kitchen so it is a good size for toddlers by placing the sink in between the refrigerator and oven. Or if the sink is above the oven and refrigerator, then it works for preschoolers or if you only have a small space to put it in. My kids like to have it in the kitchen so they can “cook” alongside me so the second configuration works better for us. My kids favorite thing about the Cook ‘N Grow Kitchen is that it looked like a “real” kitchen and that made them feel grown up playing with it. I liked that it only took about an hour of assembly and we had an awesome toy kitchen ready for them to play with!
