    I love the Melissa & Doug brand and quality of the product. However, I was a bit disappointed to find out that some of the products were different. For example, I did not receive a loaf of bread but received one slice of bread and box of rice. In addition, I did not receive an orange and lemon only a thin wooden piece of broccoli.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 9, 2024

    You could get other toy food for a cheaper price, but this is really good quality and very durable.
    Lots of fun to play with (as the kids played 'shop' all the time)
    Lots of choice and the trays they come in are also very handy for tidy up time (which is always done by me as the kids just abandon it all on the floor and leave it for me to tidy up....just like their dad does!)
    Jokes aside, a great purchase and good quality, and we sold these once the kids grew out of them, so we got some money back afterwards.
    Excellent purchase, and product!
