Where to buy Kidkraft kitchen?

[ExcitedMamma]

I have been thinking about buying this kitchen:

http://www.amazon.com/KidKraft-53260-Uptown-Espresso-Kitchen/dp/B00592BOAO/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1340639879&sr=1-1&keywords=kidkraft+expresso+kitchen

But I haven't felt like I've found a good price for it. Amazon used to have it for about $150.00 but shipping was an extra $30 or so and now shipping is included and the price is $185. It feels like I'm still paying a lot extra for shipping but I can't find it in a store locally or for a good price on any other sites. What do you guys think? Is there a time of year or place where/when these go on sale?

I bought the same play kitchen about 3 weeks ago for $147 + free shipping at amazon. At the time, walmart was selling the same play kitchen for $147 too.

If you are not in a hurry to get it, I think you can wait. $147 was the lowest price I have seen so far for this play kitchen.

I wouldn't buy that kitchen just because I wouldn't want DD to have a nicer kitchen than I do ;)
That is a super cute kitchen, I haven't seen it before so I don't expect to go on sale soon. If you can wait until Christmas/Black Thursday you might find a better deal.

Not helping, but that is super cute. It is the same design as the pastel one I bought 7 years ago at Costco. Maybe I need to paint ours? It is holding up great and has been well loved here.

I also have the pastel one. I really like the layout. The dishwasher is a hoot and the phone gets a lot of love. If you search your kitchen on google shopping you can find it for $120 - $140, but its out of stock everywhere until the end of July! I'm not surprised since its such a nice set-up and the color is unisex. We got ours from an ebay seller, but they don't have your model right now either.

We just bought that same one for DD recently. Its out of stock A LOT! They just started making this model last fall and pretty much as soon as the retailers get it in, they sell out. I bought ours at SimplyKidsToys.com for $155 with free shipping. It was the cheapest I could find at the time and I looked around for a while. We get so many compliments on it. I'm sure you will love it! It does take a while to put together (about 3 hours for my husband with my help) and there were a couple damaged pieces, but KidKraft was great about sending out replacements.

It's $179 with FS on yoyo.com, and if it's your first purchase you get 15% off. Makes it a great deal!

I wanted to second what a PP mentioned- if you can wait until Black Friday and Christmas rush, kidkraft kitchens pop up very frequently with stellar deals. Our kidkraft kitchen was selling for $180-200 all year, and out of the blue went to $100 on Amazon and Walmart a couple weeks before Christmas.
