Little Tikes Country Kitchen Sizzle N Serve

“Son, go make me a hamburger with ketchup.” Son runs to toy kitchen, fires up the grill, puts burger on the grill, flips it, puts burger on bun, adds imaginary ketchup, and takes burger to dad. Mmmmmm! Best imaginary burger I’ve had in years.

My son enjoys every aspect of this kitchen from the phone to the coffee maker to the very realistic grill (For a toy grill!).

This was a great purchase, and yes, it was the grill that sold me on this particular kitchen over all the others. My son has always enjoyed helping dad on the real grill, and now he has one of his own.

The ice maker could be better. It’s difficult to load for my son, and sometimes difficult to dispense ice. It has to be loaded just right, but it works.

The doors aren’t the best fitting, but plastic on plastic typically isn’t anyway.

Assembly took about 30 minutes with my wife putting on most of the stickers besides the long one on top.

Assembly requires a drill simply to screw the many screws into the plastic. It wasn’t difficult, but required two people at times to hold the kitchen still while the screw was being held in one hand and the drill in the other to get it started.

Works as described, and I’ll probably buy an extra set of fake foods in the future. Plenty of storage under the grill and on the kitchen itself.

The cook top makes some good sounds, along with the grill. The flames on the grill are well done with a blower and red LED’s. It would be nice if the kitchen faucet actually moved, but it doesn’t. Costs had to be cut somewhere, and the makers/designers were pretty good about keeping the important stuff.

Overall, a solid 4 1/2 since it’s plastic, the faucet doesn’t actually move, and neither the dish washer nor oven have a rack.

I wouldn’t mind at all if my son grew up to be a chef. At the very least he’ll have an appreciation for the kitchen and cooking won’t be a sissy thing to do. After all, he knows dad makes a great shrimp gumbo.

Great purchase.

Not worth the money
I purchased this product for my 16 month son. A few hours after assembling the kitchen, I saw that the back left corner of the “dishwasher” was constructed so poorly that the…

We looked at numerous play kitchens for my child. After countless hours looking in retail stores and pouring over the internet, we decided on this one. The price was right and it had everything we were looking for. I couldn’t be more pleased with this playset. It only took about 1 hour to fully assemble, and it wasn’t that difficult if you can follow directions. My little girl loves it! The sounds and lights on the burners and the grill are really life-like and work very well. This thing is very sturdy too. My daughter likes to open the oven and dishwasher doors and stand on them. It hasn’t even come close to tipping. It has enough little pots and pans and accessories to keep your child busy playing. The whole set is hard plastic and is very easily wiped and cleaned off, so no concerns for maintaining this set.

The only problem we have encountered is that the little ice cubes sometimes get stuck in the dispenser.

As usual, the purchase from Amazon was painless, and the delivery was fairly quick considering the size of the box it came in.

Fantastic Little Kitchen:-)
I have to start out by saying that our two boys absolutely adore this kitchen! Our one year old loves to open and shut the doors and push the buttons on the grill and stove top;…

My one year old and 3 year old love it. The grill is their favorite. They love to push the start button and hear the noise and see the flames. The microwave door doesn’t fit properly, but I left it off for now and think we can make it fit later on. You can’t fit much in the fridge. The ice maker takes up some of the room. The ice does not come out to well either. But, that doesn’t seem to make any difference to my kids.

Excellent Choice
I was leaning more toward a wooden kitchen set for our one year daughter but my wife convinced me to go with the plastic.

My 17 month old daughter keeps very entertained with it. The only thing bad I can say it that there is a lot of plastic shavings inside the fridge and oven.
