Hape Wooden Coffee Maker Kitchen Set with Accessories| Pretend Play Toy Set for Preschoolers Ages 3 Years & Up

We purchased this little coffee maker for our grandson several months ago, adding to his ever-growing "kitchen" collection. He spends a good deal of time playing with his Hape Cook n Serve Kitchen and the addition of a coffee maker was at the top of his wish list. I noticed that whenever our dear grandson becomes less interested in playing "kitchen" that a purchase from his kitchen wish list will rekindle his interest in his entire collection.As with the other Hape toys we have purchased, the quality of this little coffee maker is excellent, and it is sure to last for many years to come.Owen especially likes that his coffee maker looks like the Keurig we have, and he enjoys opening and closing the yellow lid on top to "make coffee".Downside:• It would have been nice if Hape would have included other "coffees, teas, and coco" "felts" so Owen would be able to "make" different kinds in his coffee pot like we do in the real one.• I wish it had come with 2 cups rather than just the one. Then we could have our "coffee together"Upside:• I love the little sugar spoon• Owen likes the cow picture on the milk carton (however now he says he "needs" a refrigerator because "milk cannot sit on the counter all darn day"• The Hape coffee maker was reasonable priced ($16.93) other similar priced coffee makers I found were plastic or of a lesser quality or "unfinished" wood----------------From an Educational or Developmental Perspective: Hape - Playfully Delicious - Coffee Maker Wooden Play Kitchen Set supports a child's creative development.In a world of brain science and cognitive development, Creative Development is often overlooked or considered less important -sometimes even optional.

I bought this toy because my son, who is 2, has recently been obsessed with making Mommy coffee in the morning. I have been letting him help in the kitchen and the coffee maker is one of his favorite things to help with. I always handle the water, but I let him open it, put the pod in, push the brew button. He likes to help so much, but obviously, the fun ends once the brew button is pushed because I'm not going to help once hot liquids are involved.Thankfully, Hape, which is one of my favorite toy brands, had the perfect "just like Mommy" coffee maker. Now, the fun lasts all day and he can do it himself ("I do it" is one of our favorite phrases right now). He doesn't play much with the "coffee pod" but he opens/closes the top, pushes the button, makes his own brewing sounds and mixes in sugar and milk when he is done. It is pretty cute. He also like pretending to make grandma some tea, daddy some cocoa, etc.Overall, it has been great. It is a quality toy and will definitely hold up well to continuous use. The only things that I could see to make it better, would be if it came with additional "pods." However, I could easily make some additional ones out of felt from a craft store and will probably do so when he shows more interest in that feature of the toy.

This is the cutest thing ever. The top opens and closes just like a Keurig, with something inside providing just the right amount of resistance for a small child. There is a button on top to "start" the coffeemaker and a know on the side to adjust coffee "strength". I sniffed it carefully when I pulled it out of the box and couldn't detect any kind of odor - and I'm pretty sensitive to smells. The finish is very smooth, no splinters or rough spots that I could find. This appears to be very well made. So far the paint is withstanding play on our tile floor as well (of course, we just got this, so only time will tell). My 2 1/2 year old daughter must have brewed me 10 cups of coffee and tea in the first 10 minutes she had it. My only beef is that I wish it came with 2 mugs instead of 1, but of course my daughter just used her extra plastic play cups to brew extra coffee for the family. I'm very happy with this toy and now I can't wait to get my daughter the matching toaster.

My little niece LOVES this coffee pot! She had become interested in pressing the button when we were using the Keurig coffee maker and she was thrilled when she got her own so that she can make coffee in the morning too. Everything is tiny for itsy bitsy hands and the coffee maker comes with the bright blue mug, a cup of sugar and spoon, a little while carton of milk, and even a little cloth cartridge, just like we put into the real coffee maker. She is quickly becoming an imaginary caffeine addict (we need to look into buying a decaf cloth cartridge for the machine!) and everyone else in proximity, even Papa, who is staunchly against coffee, has had more than his share of our girly's specialty brew. This is absolutely brilliant in that that it stimulates the imagination and is a modern design for young kids who have never even been in a house with a drip-style coffee pot & want to do what mom and dad are doing. The other thing that is totally worth mentioning is that the toy is made with hard wood from a renewable source and all of the paints and dyes are completely non-toxic and water based. So pour me another cup, please!

I love the idea, the look, the quality. My daughter’s favorite toys are her dolls, her tea set and now this coffee maker.There are two things they could improve on:1. Add a second mug. They say it “encourages social development”. People typically don’t share the same cup of coffee when they socialize :D2. I wish you could actually put in and take out the k-cup. It is only for looks, so children can’t actually pretend to do the whole process. Kids love putting things together then apart, so I think it would be even more enjoyable.Side note: some people have trouble engaging in activities with kids so young, like 2 or 3 years. This toy (and our wooden tea set) is a super simple and fun way to play with such little kids. It doesn’t require much energy or creativity, yet you spend precious quality time with your child.Overall I love it and very much recommend it.

My daughter loves this adorable coffee maker. I love that it is wooden and painted with non-toxic water-based paints. I also love that it requires imagination and does not make noise. We have enough noisy toys! It is similar to our single-serve coffee maker and also comes with milk and sugar.Make sure you keep track of the little coffee disc that goes in the top. It is only a small felt circle. I will probably make some more of these myself in different colors.We also got the toaster to match and they are perfect additions to her "kitchen".

Originally I was planning on buying the Melissa and Doug version for Christmas but had waited too long and missed the deadline to receive in time so I went searching and found this one. It’s super cute and the prices were comparable. Very glad I was able to get this one. My two year old now “makes coffee” for everyone in the house about 100 times a day. This was exactly what I was looking for and would definitely recommend

I am a Keurig coffee drinker, and my 2 year old daughter always observed me doing the coffee. Now, she has learned all the steps, and she even prepares the coffee for me (with a little help). So I decided to buy her this wooden coffee set so she can have her own!The set is very well built, it feels sturdy and good quality. She has a lot of fun opening/closing the capsule compartment, pretending to get the coffee, and then adding sugar and milk. The set does not have any sounds or feedback, so it is full pretend play. The only think I did not really like is that the coffee capsule is just a flat circle, and does not have the real feel of a Keurig cup, but my daughter does not seem to mind it!

My three year old has been watching mummy hard at work at the espresso machine making drinks for daddy for the whole of his life.... He loves this well built coffee machine. It has cute little accessories and all of the wood feels good quality and sturdy. I think kids enjoy playing with kitchen stuff that they either like themselves (pizza sets and cake) or that they see mum and dad use.... If you have a coffee maker or espresso machine in your home I don't think you'll be going wrong with this. Has nice features that make it great for the three year old set but also for them to use as they grow and their imaginative play is more extensive. Makes a great mocha ;)

Cumplió todas las expectativas. Esta marca siempre presenta la misma alta calidad en sus productos. La entrega dentro del plazo y el producto llegó en excelentes condiciones.

Carinissima macchinetta del caffè in legno, ben fatta e bei colori, ai miei bimbi è piaciuta molto.È anche decisamente indistruttibile!!

Die kleine Kaffeemaschine wird seit Weihnachten täglich von meiner 2-jährigen benutzt und zeigt bisher keinerlei Abnützungserscheinungen. Die Qualität überzeugt mich wirklich, das Produkt sieht aus wie am ersten Tag. Auch das eher simpel gehaltene Pad erweist sich als robuster als gedacht - ein paar in Reserve wären trotzdem noch nett gewesen.Tasse, Löffel, Zuckerdose und Milchpackung regen zu entzückenden Rollenspielen an und erfreuen Mama und Papa immer wieder mit neuen "Kaffeespezialitäten".Gemessen an der guten Verarbeitung und an der Freude, die das Spielzeug meiner Tochter bereitet, ist der Preis absolut angemessen.
