 Huge Hit! Pros, Cons, and Specific Dimensions Dec 04, 2009
By Jennifer K. Price
Pros:
1. It looks much like Pottery Barn's play set for a fraction of the cost.
2. Walmart is cheaper then Target. We had liked one at Target, but Target's is smaller in width than this one. Also if buying online Target doesn't have free shipping to store. Shipping alone would of been almost 50 bucks.
3. Makes noises but not loudly. This play kitchen has
3 knobs in the front that make clicking noises.
4. Nice compartments sizes. The door under the sink opens to a large space without a shelf which is a plus because wood play appliances could be stored in there or a large basket of play food.
5. It's made of wood and not plastic. All the wood is sturdy, solid and it was easy for my husband to put together.
6. HUGE hit with our 2 year old daughter and all her play date friends.
Cons:
1. Weird holes. I didn't like was there is holes the size of quarters drilled in on the back side and floor in the area below the sink in inside the compartment area. The same size holes are drilled in the very bottom area under the oven and yet again in the back areas of the refrigerator. Not really sure what the holes are for wish they were not there. But I probably still would of bought this play kitchen set because it is the best out there for the price and being real wood.
2. Plastic handles and knobs. At least their heavy duty would be extremely hard to break. I personally like metal hardware better. But its not a deal breaker.
Specific Dimensions:
Outside the sink stove part:
about 25.5 inches wide and 20.25 inches high. The back slash with the clock at it's highest point is 26.5 inches high.
The inside areas of the sink stove part:
Within the oven it's slightly over 9.5 inches high and slightly under 13 inches wide. The lower shelf is slightly over 3 inches high the top is right at 6.5 inches. The shelf area below the oven is right at 6 inches high and slightly under 13 inches wide. The are under the sink is 16 inches high and slightly over 11 inches wide.
Outside the refrigerator:
Is 29 inches high and 31 inches high on the highest point of the door.
Inside the refrigerator:
Inside the top door of the refrigerator it's a little over 15.5 high and the space is split evenly with a shelf making two compartments. The bottom door is 11 inches high.
The dept on the inside areas in all the doors of all pieces is exactly 11 inches in depth. The dept on the outside of all pieces is 12 inches.
If you want to see 2 pictures I posted the same review on Walmart's site with pictures of all compartments open.
Hope this helped happy shopping! :)

 Cute Set for the Price Feb 23, 2010
By A NY Mom
We surprised our twin 20 month old daughters with this pink retro kitchen set for Christmas. We stocked it with pots and pans, dinnerware, felt food and the Kid Kraft coffee maker and mixing bowl set. It was a hit! I too was drooling over the Pottery Barn retro pink set--agh, but the cost! So we settled with this one. With twins you need more working space--and more storage. So I ended up buying the white pie cabinet from PB anyway to go with this kitchen set. It works like an accent piece. The quality of PB is much better--it's more solid and durable than Kid Kraft and you do not see the screw holes. PB uses solid wood--Kid Kraft is MDF board. The Kid Kraft set has only been mildly used since Dec 25 and I've already had to contact Customer Service for replacement knobs (clickers inside the knobs broke)and we've had to tighten the hinges several times as they continue to come loose. The CS dept is good and I'm awaiting replacements as I write this.
Bottom line: You get what you pay for.
A YEAR LATER: Well, we've had the set nearly a year now and it has brought the girls endless hours of fun and learning. It's held up beautifully except for those darn clickers in the stove knobs--the only sound feature. Not really a big deal in the end. Customer Service rocked, but call early on if something gives out. The Melissa and Doug cutting food set fits great in the open space under the oven

Mom with Boy & Girl Nov 10, 2007
By Mom with Boy & Girl
Love this set! High quality. Really, one of the cutest that I have seen. This set has a lot of personality and charm. Looks really cute in playroom. Good storage. Assembly required -- allow a couple hours at least and find someone who is good with that type of thing. My only complaint is that while I love the retro pink, I wish they offered this exact style in a color that was more suitable for boys and girls.

 Great Wooden Kitchen for the Price Jun 05, 2009
By R. Healey
We liked the Pottery Barn Kids Retro kitchen but it was very expensive. This kitchen is very similar in look (a little smaller) and it extremely sturdy. It was easy to assemble (less than an hour). My 2-year old daughter loves it and it is high-quality and attractive enough to have 'out' in your house ... we use it as a cute piece of furniture for her bedroom. I would definitely recommend it! (A couple of the pieces arrived damaged, but there is a website where I picked the pieces from the part list, entered my address and received replacements for free in about 3 days.)

Perfect Kitchen! Aug 29, 2009
By L. Johnston
I have two girls, 2 and 4 years old. We got this for them last Christmas. We LOVE Pottery Barn Kids merchandise and were debating between their sets and this one. After reading reviews and more product info, this was the clear choice. Much cheaper and frankly now that I have it, better built. My two-year old tends to climb. She has climbed on this and bounced up and down and the kitchen is like a rock. Very sturdy! KidKraft always come through for us.
