Please help me with opinions on these 2 kitchens!!

Hi. Okay, I've been obsessing over kitchens. I think I have it narrowed down to the following 2. I haven't gotten to see either in person, so I'd love to hear opinions if you've actually seen either one.


This one is at Costco. We don't have a Costco here, so I'd have to order online, so can I even do that without a membership? Maybe I can borrow someone's if not.

I've seen the pink Costco retro kitchen in person, and it looks really cute! It fits our style more than the Step2, so for us it would for sure be the retro kitchen!

The Costco one is cute, but the size is smaller scale compared to the usual kitchens made by Kidkraft. Not sure if that is a factor in your decision. I like the Costco Kidkraft one over the Step 2 kitchen.

We have liked our Step 2 kitchen for years. That one is bigger than ours' but same principal. It comes with a good number of extras, which is always nice! I also like the gender neutrality of it better. Plus, it worked well in a number of spots in our house. Right now it is in our dining room and blends nicely. The pink would be way too much.

They are both cute though!

ETA- if you go with the Step 2 one get cracking on assembly as soon as you can. We made a judgment error and started assembling it at 11pm Christmas eve. Well, we got done at 2am- and had to use power tools. Lots of little details.

I've seen the step2 IRL and was not impressed. I think I am pretty biased towards a wood kitchen in general though.
