My 7 year old daughter received this play set 2 days ago and (unusually for her) she has played with it practically non stop ever since. Although I am not a fan of the Barbie brand and the stereotypes it represents, I have to admit this this is one of the best toys we have had for a long time!The kitchen comes in 3 parts and is accompanied by a blonde haired, permanently bent armed, scantily clad, Barbie doll. This Barbie is a traditional doll wearing a blue, short dress, white trainers and apron. Rather amusingly, my daughter presented her with one of the tumblers and because she doesn't stand up very well on her own, lay her down on the floor, where she has remained ever since,

So, I hate cooking, but I've loved getting this out and playing with my friend's two little girls, aged nearly-7 and 11. There was no fighting as there's plenty included in this for two kids to comfortably play with. I really wish there had been something like this when I was little, or even when my son was little, as he's 26 now and loves cooking, but still won't eat his veg. And, lol, Mattel shows a little boy playing with this set, with a male doll - sigh. I suppose they tried.It's not a huge set and it fits comfortably on a coffee table - it needs a completely flat surface, so a carpet with pile won't do. Barbie herself kind of gets lost in this set, as there's so much to see and do.

At first I was a bit worried about Kitchen Barbie and it being a bit of a stereotype of women being in the kitchen etc but as I have explained to my daughter she is Chef Barbie and she hasn’t questioned it at all. To be honest, the Barbie is totally an afterthought with this set.She isn’t as good quality as other Barbies you can purchase separately, she is less bendy and to be honest doesn’t add much to the play factor, so currently she is sitting in my daughter dolls house starring into space :-)This set comes with 5 small tubs of play-doh (playdough?) and an array of moulds in which to create all sorts of play food for the kitchen.My daughter and son have had hours of fun creating/making food,

As Barbie sets go, this one is fairly reasonably priced... There are certainly much smaller Barbie playsets in this price range without as much to offer as this one.The Barbie doll itself is fairly basic with a cooking outfit including an apron and you get 5 very small pots of playdough of various colours(all of which will probably be the standard colour of dark purple within a week as they get muddled up).The kitchen though really is quite impressive with so many different working parts. It is essentially 3 separate 'units' with the central shelving unit flanked by the oven on one side and the work area on the other.The work surface has a built in mold that makes a variety of small vegetable pieces,

This is a very clever play set where Barbie can become a chef.It includes 5 dough colours (yellow, red, white, green and brown/gold) to make any food you can imagine.20 plus pieces are included like, a vegetable shaper press, large stew pot with lid, saucepan, knife, beakers, burger shapes maker, chips maker, plates, bowls and cutlery.The utilities include a fridge with two shelves, an oven with removable shelf and sounds, a hob with light up heat rings which emits a sizzle sounds.Barbie wears a polka dot apron and can hold some of the utensils, like the ladle or spatula. Although she won’t stand up on her own.It has four dough shape makers in a vegetable maker which will make tomato slices,

This is one of the best Barbie kits I have ever seen. It is so comprehensive and well thought through - it has more gadgets that I have in my kitchen! We are big fans of baking and cooking programmes in our family and my 8 year old granddaughter and 7 year old grandson are both thrilled with this brilliant kit. All their dolls, male and female, are taking turns as chefs and diners, including the Barbie that comes with the kit.For a child's toy it is amazingly realistically put together, with all the white goods and cooking equipment you would expect in a normal kitchen, and the level of detail is superb. In addition there is coloured play dough which can be formed into various shapes,

This is an excellent Barbie Ultimate Kitchen set, which combines imaginative play with arts and crafts, as this comes with five tubs of playdough, as well as lots of moulds to create play food.The set comes with a doll, plus lots of kitchen accessories and opportunities for Barbie to do some serious cooking. There is a fridge, vegetable mould, sandwich maker, a press to make fries, a stove top which lights up and makes cooking noises and an oven with a timer. There are also lots of little accessories – pots, pans, glasses, a ladle, spatula, tongs and more.My daughter and niece have had endless fun with this set. They have enjoyed the opportunities to create meals and there have been an endless parade of dolls queuing up to eat them!

Whilst this does seem a tad on the expensive side when you look at all the components, extras and different things kids can play with it does work out at a good price.you get a basic Barbie doll which comes with a apron, but I suppose kids will use any doll!the kitchen is impressive with a oven (needs batteries) with a light up hob, cooking sounds and oven timer.a fridge and a worktop with cupboards and storage areas.then you get some playdoh pots where kids will have the most fun, making lots of food in the kitchen, you have a veg press with different veg shapes, a sandwich maker and a fry press.you also get some utensils like a tong, spatula, spoons, knife,

I was delighted that this playset included play-dough. It really makes it a lot more interactive than your typical toy set and has been a firm family favourite since Christmas.The kitchen comes with a number of squishers and pressers to make the meals - waffle-maker, vegetables, pies and more. The burger maker is particularly clever. There are also plenty of small accessories, such as pots and pans, and some of the appliances will make sounds, which the kids love. The dough is easily replaceable - there's a lot of mixing encouraged so it probably won't last long.The doll herself is the usual good Barbie quality and I don't have any concerns that her joints will go,

Snapped this up for my niece, who loves it immensely. The favourite element for her is the food making (moulding vegetables with the dough, and repeatedly activating the oven) but she does tend to play with all the various bits and pieces (pots and pans) so she can put together dinner for her other dolls (and the included Barbie isn't always treated as chef). From an adults point of view, it's not exactly a budget set but you do get a fair amount included. Just to note, I found putting it together for her a pretty simple affair, but if you're going to move it around a lot, I'd suggest holding from the base as it does feel a little like it could give it if pulled from the side.

This is a fantastic product and my 8 year old niece loves it. She spends hours playing with her Barbies so the addition of the kitchen and its many functions was a big hit.She really enjoys creating things with arts and crafts and so loves making different meals for her Barbies using the coloured play dough and various moulds. She especially loves the cooker with its beeping timer and the hob that lights up and makes boiling sounds!I feel the colourful kitchen is well designed. It’s not cumbersome and sits comfortably on the coffee table (better than the carpet for stability) and with its many realistic working features provides hours of great imaginative play.

This product is ideal for children who like detail in their imaginative play, which is why I have given it 5 stars. However, that does not mean everyone will like it. Some children will trash the set; some will grow impatient; some will lose the little bits. Think before you buy this! It also needs 3 AAA batteries to make the simulated heat sources work. The chef Barbie is a work of art, by the way.Our own grand-daughter loves this set, but she has always had an interest in small things and has therefore tried and tried to improve her dexterity. What I personally like is how long it keeps her involved and how much there is to play with in the set.

Although part of me doesn't like the fact that this is a Barbie in a kitchen setting ( stereotyping!) I have to admit that the recipient absolutely loved this and squealed with delight when handed over.It comes with lots of accessories to play with, and did keep my niece amused for hours.I have always found Barbie toys to be really sturdy and stand up to quite a bashing and this is no exception.In my opinion Barbie toys do cost a lot of money but they are quite robust and as long as you are careful to put everything away in a bag (to avoid loss) after use your child will get many years of joy out of this.

A Barbie in an apron is included. So are 5 pots of coloured play dough. There are various small appliances that kind of work. But they need batteries which are not included. So even quite small children can have a great time making and “cooking” things long before they are into the fashion and bling that Barbie is usually all about. Absolutely no prizes for doing anything to remedy gender stereotypes. Very young boys would no doubt enjoy playing with it before they realise it is “girly”and that is a “ bad” thing. It is quite expensive I suppose but there is a lot to it so not bad value altogether.

This is a great playset - really good size and comes with all the accessories a budding Delia Smith could want. The playdough aspect adds another dimension as the little ones can make their own food with the supplied accessories too! Main downside is that its Playdough and that means mess - but I suppose this is what kids are all about!Atr £45 at the time of writing I would say you are paying a "Barbie" premium here - probably get an off brand set for half the price - still, if this is your thing then its a decent enough set with plenty to do
