Purchased for a very mobile and steady 13 month old child, and entirely appropriate with oversight. This toy is well made, sturdy and easy to assemble. The smooth wood finish is very appealing and the cookware and food items are just plain fun! Thankfully the child was asleep when we assembled it so we could all have a turn playing before she saw it. It takes up little space and blends in with regular adult furniture, which is great if you don't have a dedicated playroom space. Love it!!!
