Melissa & DougFridge Food Wooden Play Food Set - 9 Pieces Pretend Play Kitchen Accessories, For Kids Kitchen, Wooden Grocery Sets For Kids Ages 3+

We have found that this is yet another great quality product from Melissa & Doug. Our family loves just about everything from Melissa & Doug, and this set was certainly no exception.Let's get into the details of this set.First, these are solid, relatively heavy items. This is mostly really good - these pieces are very nicely painted and feel like they're made from solid wood and will be durable not just for years, but perhaps generations. Parents with little ones prone to throwing objects should probably take note: these could cause a bit of damage when thrown! Certainly not a reason to skip this purchase, but just something to be aware of. This weight is directly connected to the product's durability, which should be outstanding.The paint and graphics are all oustanding. I appreciate that the items are all "generic" and not "brand name" - we didn't want to buy advertising for commercial food companies, and with this set, we didn't.Our kids really enjoy playing with these, filling their Step2 grocery cart with them, wheeling them around the house, emptying the cart while giving the items to family members, then collecting the items to start the cycle again.I also appreciate that these items are mostly ones that are part of our normal diet around the house, so should be instantly recognizable to the kids -- things like milk, butter and yogurt.Overall, this was a great purchase. The price was quite reasonable, quality excellent, and enjoyment factor high. You can't really ask for much more than that!

This Melissa and Doug food set is an adorable toy and really sparks the imagination. I would give it 5 stars but the paint has chipped in a short amount of time. I will keep it and not complain because it is so darling and they are heavy duty. Do not let one land on your toe- it really really hurts! The items go really cute with the shopping cart I ordered and kids really seem to like it. It has gotten a lot of use! I would definitely buy it again if they could fix the paint. I would never buy the plastic play food as those always seem to get dented and look trashed after a few weeks. Wooden toys will last you for many years. I recommend getting other kinds of foods from Melissa and Doug like the freezer food and the canned food to go with. Melissa and Doug make some very cute toys that will last until your grandchildren are playing with them. I like how the fridge food is all sorts of things, bologna, ice cream, orange juice, waffles, yogurt, cheese and butter. How cute! Just like things that Mom and Dad get when they go to the store. I recommend that many of your child's toys be Melissa and Doug. They make their toys to last, and they are very imaginative and original. I like that they don't make noise, because so many do these days. Noisy toys get really old really fast and batteries are actually kind of expensive to be constantly replacing. Too many toys these days are becoming so technical. These wooden toys are something that will never go out of style and will be loved by all.

Great quality, plastic free worth the money perfect for the play kitchen

My wife and I bought this Melissa and Doug fridge food set for my Daughter for Christmas, and she loves it. The pieces are all made from solid wood and look very realistic. We love almost everything Melissa and Doug makes, and this product is no different. After over a month of solid play (and abuse) all of the pieces are holding up well and so no signs of wear and tear. The paint is well applied and does not scrape off easily. My daughter is not gentle with this "food" and they still look brand new.We bought this set to go with her Pottery Barn kitchen and wanted something nicer than just your typically fake plastic food. My daughter and I play with these regularly, setting up fake grocery stores and pretending to go grocery shopping and then stocking her fridge when she gets home - just like Mommy. We have already gotten hours of fun playtime with this set, and fully expect this to last for as long as my daughter and her new brother will play with them.If you are new to Melissa and Doug products, I highly recommend giving them and this product a try, as well as checking out their other offerings. They make many solid wood puzzles and learning toys, all of which I have found to be top notch in regards to craftsmanship, design and the most important of all - fun factor!

Very sturdy and cute.. Granddaughter is having fun playing with these in her play kitchen

I recently purchased the wooden fridge food by Melissa and Doug. So happy with the product!! All 9 items are wooden!! We purchased the grocery store for Christmas along with other pretend food. Most of that food was made from cheap cardboard boxes that eventually get stepped on or broken. These will last forever!

I really like these for our LO's play kitchen! They're hardy and have nice designs. I only wish that they were designed all the way around, not just one dimensional. For example, you'll see a rectangle of butter, and it'll say BUTTER on one side, but all the way around it is just yellow. It's not the worst, just leaves it a little blah when you see a flat figure on it's face laying on the floor and think "Well. That's green." It's frozen peas *shrug* Not the worst complaint. Still think it's giftable, good quality, and does the job!

Sooo cute for play food ! Great details, looks real .
