My daughter received the Fisher-Price grow-with-me kitchen for a Christmas present when she was one year old. After comparing many different kitchens, we decided on this one for many reasons, the main two being price and longevity.
Many of the other kitchens were too high for my daughter, who is on the petit side. She would not have been able to reach the other kitchen tops for some time. The Fisher-Price Grow-with-Me kitchen starts off in a lower setting and allows my daughter to cook on the stove, use the blender, sink, oven and microwave. It also has a phone that she likes to talk on while cooking up her latest masterpiece. There are sounds for the stove, sink knobs, and the blender which my daughter enjoys. Although it comes with a couple accessories, she's found useful kitchen accessories for her kitchen in mommy's cupboards.
As my toddler grows and the lower setting gets too small for her, we can expand the kitchen up easily by lifting and unlocking the side. It will then provide an expanded kitchen for her that will last her for many years. At that point, the music and basic sounds on the lower section also become more realistic sounds, which will be neat for her.
As for price...wow, it can't be beat! This price was much less expensive then some of the other ones, and in my opinion if offers so much more than the others!
Maintenance on the Fisher-Price Grow-with-Me kitchen is very easy. It is all plastic so I wipe it down with a wash rag or a clorox wipe.
One point of concern I found while reading other reviews before I bought this, was that the sink does not lock into place. It is not suppose to and it is easy for my daughter to just take out. Other parents complained about this, but I haven't found it to be a problem. She takes it out, but just like everything else we have, she just has to put it back when she is done. Actually it has worked out that it comes out because a few times her snack has wound up in the sink. I was able to just remove the sink and wash it quickly in my sink. So again, I don't see any issue with the sink being removable. In fact, I can't find anything I don't like about this kitchen!
Overall, I would have to say this is an excellent product. Well made (very sturdy), practical, and will last a while with the "grow with me" feature. Great concept by Fisher Price!!!!
