Customer Video Review Length:: 2:08 MinsThe Kidkraft Suite Elite Kitchen is all(most) that you would expect from a top-end play kitchen. In less than a week it has become my daughter's number 1 toy! She loves to put her plate and cups into and out of the cabinets. The ages on the toy are listed for ages 3 and up, but our daughter is 1 and she loves it. Pros - Solid wood construction - it seems like it will withstand a few years of play. - Nice look - it looks real + it isn't an eye sore in a play room. - Cabinets, microwaves, stoves....all open with an audible click - they *sound real* - Seems to be easy to clean - the sink is removable, the counter-tops can be wiped - Non gender specific colors... which may seem odd, but if you have a little boy who likes to play in the kitchen have no fear you can buy him this without loading his room up with pink! Cons - Plan on 2-3 hours to put this thing together (maybe more). It is as bad or worse than any piece of Ikea furniture. - Directions are mediocre at-best - In a couple of spots the paint wore off.... not-too-bad but I was hoping for a little more due to the price point. Tips for putting it together - Use your own Hex wrenches - this will save you lots of frustration - not all of my pieces were marked - so be very careful in which pieces you use - it is not always easy to determine which way that piece is installed...aka you will likely put in some pieces upside-down or backwards. This is my number 1 complaint with the directions. - When you start the project you really need an extra set of hands. While one person can put it together by themselves steps 1 and 2 are much easier if you have help. Final Verdict - I know it is a bit expensive and it is hard to put together, but our daughter really, really likes it. Just remember if Santa is bringing this on Christmas Eve.... he has a little work ahead of him (or Mrs. Claus) to get it put together! 4 1/2 stars 18 of 18 people found the following review helpful By Laila (Richmond, VA United States) - See all my reviews = Durability: This review is from: Kidkraft Suite Elite Kitchen (Toy) I bought this for my nieces for Christmas. It's very cute and sturdy. Since I haven't given it to them yet, I can't tell you what they think of it, but after spending 3 1/2 hours putting it together last night, I can give you a few hints on assembly.First, it's definitely harder than Ikea. Ikea optimizes the assembly so that everything can be put together with one or two types of hardware. This is not the case here. If there is a board, it probably has it's own hardware. There are seven types of bolts and four types of screws. They organize the hardware nicely in a divided packet, but be very careful not to mix them up. Open only the ones you need from the pack by the perforated cardboard on the back. Don't mix up the matching bolts and nuts. They come attached to each other. I mixed them up at some point and they didn't attach easily, even though they were the same type of hardware. I was able to manage with the mini wrench and Allen wrenches supplied, but you do need a Philips screwdriver. It does need to be a real one, not one with interchanges bits since the post holding up the curtain require you to insert the screw inside the post an inch or two and the hole wasn't wide enough to accommodate my interchangeable screwdriver. There are 35 pieces in the set and 22 steps. The steps, while do not have any text, are pretty clear. Be patient, make sure you've attached everything since there are usually many things to attach in each step. Step 1 is probably the hardest, so don't get discouraged. It essentially puts together the frame. Step 3 is a little visually confusing, but all it really means is that 26 gets attached with screw F and 7 gets attached with screw G. I did notice one slight error. For piece 7, the latch should be on top. It doesn't appear in diagram in Step 3 (which is shouldn't since this is a bottom view), but when you see the top view of the piece, in Step 4 it doesn't appear either (which is should). It doesn't show up until Step 6 so be careful which direction you assemble it. I noticed small alignment issues. The back splash was a little tight and I had one back panel (piece 21) whose grooves on the bottom didn't align with the grooves on the side. It wasn't a huge misalignment, but enough that I had to loosen hardware and push and pull a little to work. So, in summary? It's harder than Ikea, less standardized, more steps, more pieces but probably sturdier. If you can put together an Ikea piece of furniture, you can put this together, but with a little more patience and time. Don't wait until Christmas Eve. 9 of 10 people found the following review helpful = Durability: This review is from: Kidkraft Suite Elite Kitchen (Toy) Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?) The Suite Elite Kitchen assembly took approximately 2 hours -- put it together without assistance, although assistance is also available at a 800 number. The resulting play kitchen is really cute -- and the little girls in our family love it (a 3 year old and a 1-1/2 year old) I bought them a few real bowls, a small frying pan and wooden spoons to get into the use of the kitchen. (nothing like that is supplied)The girls love that the dials click when you turn them. They love to open and close the cupboards, talk about what they are going to make, and pretend to talk on the phone. The play kitchen is a great traditional toy in that their imaginations are engaged and the children provide a lot of the action. I am glad of that as I get frustrated with most toys on the market that simply have a button for a child to press and then the toy lights up or says something ... (in those cases, what is there for the child to do?) The few ideas I have are to have a timer that dings on the play oven, and a magnet-front to the refrigerator so the kids can use refrigerator magnets like the grown-ups. |
