Small play kitchens are pitched at toddlers. By the time a child is five or six the counter is too low and the game feels babyish.

The manufacturer gives this one a range of 3 to 10. Counters at 18.5 and 20 inches and a 37 inch overall height mean an older child can still stand at it comfortably.

Ten labelled parts

Water dispenser, microwave, towel rack, sink and tap, hanging hooks, washing machine, stove top, door cabinet, open shelves and oven. Spread across four sections, so several children can work at once.

Wash, chop, cook, bake

The tap turns 180 degrees and switches on and off. The counter is used for chopping, the stove for cooking and the oven for baking. Note the manufacturer's own caption: the toy vegetables and fruit shown are not included.

What is actually in the box

Three utensils, a skillet, two spice bottles, a pot with a lid, two plates, a cup with wooden ice cubes and a chef suit set. The hat and apron mean the dressing up happens before the cooking does.

The corner it needs

It stands 37 inches tall and 11.5 inches deep, with counters at 18.5 and 20 inches. The long arm measures 28 inches and the short one 16.5 inches. The manufacturer marks it for 3 to 10 year olds.

Burner rings that glow and sizzle, with wooden knobs that click as they turn.

Set into the fridge door at the end of the run, with a cup to catch it.

A porthole drum on the far arm for doll clothes and cloths.

The manufacturer lists a rotatable faucet with an on and off switch over the sink.

A microwave on the back panel and an oven with a window under the counter.

Hanging hooks for the utensils, open shelves in the corner block and a towel rail.

The manufacturer fits catches so the cabinet doors stay shut between games.

A widened base for steadiness, with ASTM and CPSIA certification stated by the manufacturer.

The chef hat and apron come in the box, so the game starts with getting dressed.

Buying it from us

The manufacturer's dimension sheet marks it for 3 to 10 year olds, which is a wider range than most play kitchens.

How many children can use it at once?

The manufacturer divides it into four play areas and says up to four children can play together.
