TOP 10 best children's kitchens
10 Sovtechstrom U548
Country: Russia
Average price: 1 160 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.0
Even the largest and most beautiful kitchen can be undeservedly deprived of the attention of children. How many of these toys gather dust in garages and mezzanines - do not count. A prudent alternative to an expensive purchase, when there is doubt about its necessity, is the simple and compact My Kitchen set from the domestic manufacturer Sovtekhstrom (Ufa). It costs a little more than a thousand rubles, you can take a promotion even cheaper, and it is completed to last.
In addition to the kitchen itself, the child gets a full grocery basket: two types of bread, a whole chicken, sausages, an egg and a ready-made fried egg. There is also a set of dishes, however, it seems to many to be poor. But this is easily corrected - in the assortment of the company there are many options that can still be supplemented with a complete set. Luckily the prices allow. Users indicate that the set fully meets their expectations, the quality does not disappoint, the main thing is to take into account its dimensions (height when assembled 60 cm) and compare them with the height of the baby. It is believed that for 1.5‒3 years old this is an ideal choice, and you don’t even have to remove the little things from the set - they simply don’t exist.
9 Polissya Laura
Country: Belarus
Average price: 1 720 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.3
A very small child and the kitchen should choose not too high, otherwise it will be inconvenient for him to play with it. Laura from the famous Belarusian manufacturer "Polesie" is just right for children 2-3 years old, since its height is only 75 cm.For children even half a year or a year older, the model will already be too small, although if you wish, you can play with it while sitting. And the desire, most likely, will be - the whole kit looks very attractive. And the hob with sound effects delights at least a 2-year-old, even a 6-year-old chef.
If you want the kitchen to have interactive functionality, you need to be careful when ordering: the model has two similar modifications. One, more expensive - with illumination of burners and sound imitation of cooking processes, the other without any additional functions. But both are made of high quality, durable plastic. By the way, there are also two packaging options - in a PET bag and in a box. The box is preferable: although you have to overpay, the risk that plastic parts will be damaged during delivery will be minimal.

7 COLOMA Y PASTOR Marta
Country: Spain (produced in Belarus)
Average price: 3 020 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.4
Not everyone can afford a real island kitchen, but quite a toy one. The kitchen "Martha" has an unusual round layout, takes up little space (59x50.50 cm), is easy to carry (4.75 kg) and can be placed both in the nursery and next to the kitchen set. Not one, but several children can play with it - there is enough space around for everyone. One child stands behind the hob, the second masters the washing machine or microwave, someone examines the contents of the refrigerator and comes up with a menu, in general, a complete set of appliances, utensils and accessories gives an endless number of ideas for joint games.
Parents don't have to worry about the quality of the toy. It is produced by the well-known company Polesie under license from the Spanish brand COLOMA Y PASTOR. The reviews now and then mention the quality of the plastic, which the kids now and then strive to test for strength. The quality of the product is also indicated by the bright colors, the absence of a chemical smell, smooth details and strong assembly. The only thing that many want to add is sound effects. They are not included in this model.
6 ELC Learn to cook
Country: UK (made in China)
Average price: 4 000 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.7
ELC is widely known outside of Russia - there are more than 200 stores in the UK and about 80 in 19 countries around the world. The name stands for Early Learning Center and clearly characterizes the vector of activity - the production of toys with educational value. Child psychologists, designers and, of course, the most important experts, children, are involved in their development. If you take a closer look at the Learn to Cook play kitchen, you will notice that its design really takes into account all aspects of child development.
So, each child strives to repeat her actions after her mother or grandmother, and she has everything necessary for this - from burners and an oven to a spatula and a salt shaker. Even a mobile phone is provided so as not to miss a call from a girlfriend. It is important for children to provide a comfortable space for communication with each other - and they also have it. You can interact with the kitchenette from all sides, pull out hidden tables and shelves, thereby increasing the “working” area. Children are also sensitive to bright and high-quality things, and it is important for parents to understand that they are playing in a safe environment.
5 HTI Smart
Country: China
Average price: 4 500 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.7
The child from this kitchen will surely be delighted. Even if earlier he lingered on any toy for a maximum of 10 minutes, with HTI Smart he will play for hours. It's no joke, the kettle "really" whistles on the burner, the stove glows, and real water flows from the sink tap.It enters the system very simply: it is enough to pour half a glass of water into the sink so that it enters the tap through a looped tube. After one or two pumping, you can wash your hands or dishes. The cycle closes.
However, “water procedures” are far from the only thing that a child can boast of having acquired such a toy. Not only does he have a rich arsenal of kitchen gadgets, products and utensils at his disposal, but the kitchen also amazes with intellectual functionality. So, she knows how to independently determine what is put on the stove. If it is a saucepan, then there will be a gurgling sound, if it is a frying pan - squashing. In general, the light and sound effects are implemented at the highest level.
4 Lanaland Verona
Country: China
Average price: RUB 14,299
Rating (2022): 4.8
The most important difference between the Verona kitchen is the possibility of its transformation from angular to linear and vice versa. Thus, it fits harmoniously into a play area of any size. Her soft pink color with pastel elements will definitely appeal to romantic girls. The model is made of wood. It is on wooden toys that its manufacturer specializes - a large Chinese company Zhejiang Taixing Child's Toys. Auxiliary materials are chipboard, metal and plastic. The safety of the toy is confirmed by the certificate of conformity CU RU C-CN.AB93.V.04046.
There are about 12 children's kitchens in the assortment of "Lanaland". Almost all of them have positive reviews. So, Verona is mentioned as a spectacular durable toy made of wood, and not pretty annoying plastic.Among its advantages, they note a pleasant design corresponding to little ladies, a large number of hidden shelves that stimulate cleanliness and order, as well as high-quality assembly. The list of cons includes a slightly overpriced price, and even then not everyone agrees with it.
3 SMOBY Tefal Studio Bubble XXL
Country: France (made in China)
Average price: RUB 13,490
Rating (2022): 4.9
All children know that toys with boiling water are bad. But if it's boiling water in the SMOBY Tefal kitchen, there's nothing to be afraid of. The corner kitchen-studio teaches the child to manage all kinds of appliances, keep order, set the table and receive guests. It has what the soul of a cook desires - a ceramic stove, a dishwasher, a soda siphon, an ice maker. Note that all the equipment is modern, so over time the child will not have questions about why this or that device is needed and how to use it.
The French have thought of interesting nuances. For example, for a capsule coffee maker, they put capsules and cream, came up with two sides for meat and fish steaks - “raw” and “fried”. There is plenty of work space, as well as free shelves for storing "products" and toy dishes. All structural elements are made of plastic, according to reviews, very high quality and durable. It is not in vain that the French are considered trendsetters in gastronomy, even if children's cuisines of their production are on the list of the best.
2 IKEA Ductig
Country: Sweden (produced in Poland)
Average price: 7 500 rub.
Rating (2022): 5.0
Compact (72x40x109 cm) and simple-looking kitchenette, at first glance, costs less than the price that they ask for in stores.But in fact, it is made of quality materials, conscientiously and with great attention to detail and child safety. Like a real kitchen, the children's set consists of two parts - upper and lower, has a built-in stove a la glass-ceramic and a sink with a very believable faucet. And the young chef in the kit is supposed to have a set of utensils of 4 items - exactly like mom's, made of steel, and even roof rails are provided for them.
The kitchen is delivered unassembled. Assembly, according to reviews, takes from 1.5 hours (with dad's help) to midnight if dad went on a business trip. The design is uncomplicated, but it has its own charm - it can always be supplemented with stickers, drawings, or even completely repaint the wooden surfaces. Due to its reliability and versatility, the kitchen is often bought for children's rooms and corners, where similar toys usually fall into disrepair in a matter of days.
1 Kidkraft Uptown
Country: USA (made in China)
Average price: RUB 27,999
Rating (2022): 5.0
Fashionable, white, roomy and high quality – wait, are we describing exactly not an adult kitchen set, but a Kidkraft Uptown toy kitchen? If not for the dimensions (105.41x44.45x102.87 cm), it would certainly be difficult to say this. The set, made of composite wood, looks very realistic, the full set of appliances enhances the impression even more: refrigerator, microwave, freezer and even a cooler.
All game elements are functional - the buttons are pressed, the handles turn, the doors open and close, you can write on a black board with chalk, etc. Buyers in the reviews indicate that they do not regret the purchase.The toy, although expensive, captures the attention of the child for a long time and remains interesting from year to year. For its manufacture, only environmentally friendly materials are used, there are no sharp corners and small details - in the USA they closely monitor the safety of all goods, and especially for children.
