Excellent kitchen, perfect quality. The most economical wooden kitchen and it doesn't even look like it!
The colors are exactly like the photo, if not better. It took me 1-2 hours to assemble it by myself (with an electric screwdriver) and it was quite easy. The instructions were pretty clear. Each piece of wood was wrapped separately and they were all in perfect condition. It comes with 2 wooden plates and 2 cups, along with 2 spoons, 2 small pots, and 2 wooden salt shakers.
In terms of size, it is for small children. My son is 1.5 years old and big for his age, and it is perfect for his size. He can reach the microwave easily and comfortably. When he stands in front of the faucet, for example, he looks straight through the window, center. But I think a 3-4 year old might find it somewhat small; the child would be at the height of the microwave and would have to bend down to see through the window. The seats on the other side are small, but they are fine for 1.5-2.5 year olds.
Regarding details you might not have noticed from the description:
The eyes of the kitchen and the other designs are printed on the wood (not stickers).
The faucet does not run water, the sink is removable.
It has knobs for oven adjustment, which are fine, but they have a mechanism that makes a click sound when you turn them.
The doors have a magnetic latch (if the cabinet doesn't fit perfectly, you may need to push the magnet a bit further in).
The oven opens completely from the front down (it falls a bit with force, I might put a little string to hold it), inside there is a shelf that does not come out.
The cabinet does not have a shelf.
It has two plastic hooks to hang kitchen utensils.
There is a wooden bar on the side for a towel.
One side is completely smooth so it can easily rest against a wall.
The screws are recessed into the wood but are visible normally, with no danger for the child though.
The small table on the other side does not fold or anything like that; it is stable.
Throughout the construction, there were large screws, it was screwed very securely. All the holes were already opened and had something like a screw/plug already in place; you just screw in the screw. If it breaks, I will be very surprised.
There are notches like handles on the two large side woods for carrying it (probably), it is not very heavy but is a sturdy construction. The box weighed 20 kg.
It seems that it does not scratch easily and does not absorb water. BUT kids are kids, and I think it will get scratched sooner or later.
Wonderful choice, along with some extra sets of kitchen utensils and vegetables, it is just perfect.
Update: a few months later and it is still being played with. It is a flawless purchase! It wipes easily and has not absorbed water yet. It has a few dents because the little one bangs the plates on the counter, but the color has not faded at all. A wonderful choice for a gift.
