Title: Cute addition for a play kitchen
Review: I was surprised the “spaghetti noodles” could all be taken apart. They are not noodle nests like I thought.

Title: Looks like something you get find at dollar tree
Review: Joke of product. Plus mines came used!!! Missing most pieces. Save yourself that money! You are better off buying a sheet of felt fabric and making your own for about $2 and getting some pots from dollar tree!! This should be sold for $3

Title: Not happy with this item
Review: I felt the pastas and sauces should have been separated into their own bags rather than all thrown together. I was very disappointed with this item

Title: The pasta pieces are annoying.
Review: My 16 month old son loves the blue pot!! It honestly is a really nice pot and goes well in our kitchen.The pasta pieces are more of a hassle. They stick to each other a lot. They kind of just get everywhere and are not really played with as much. I threw them in a plastic bag to keep them more contained but I may just toss them.Honestly this is pretty overpriced. It is cute and can be great if your kiddo loves this kind of stuff.

Title: Very nice toy, tiny pieces, not sure the value for money is there
Review: Everything about this set is nice. The little metal pot is a great way to deter the kids from stealing your real pots, and my kids seem to like how realistic it is (ie, not made of plastic). The pasta is definitely more durable than something you would make out of felt yourself, and it really is individual tiny strands of spaghetti and individual little bowties and such. The pasta pieces are small and not suitable for very young kids, and also I can tell they're going to get everywhere. I'm going to be finding little polyester bowtie pastas under the couch for years now, and I'm not sure how I feel about that.Also, I have to take a step back and consider if this set is a good value for the asking price, and if I'm honest, this is clearly a quality toy but the price seems steep. Big box stores sell real stainless saucepans for less than this set.

Title: Really Unique
Review: I've never seen a toy cooking set quite like this so, as soon as I saw this, I had to get it. My daughter is really big on all things "play kitchen" related and I've really indulged her vice a bit more than I probably should have lol. But I couldn't pass this up. The pasta noodles come in individual pieces - which I love. I'm glad that they aren't pre-formed blocks of frozen-in-shape pasta piles. She can really pretend to cook and eat her little spaghetti and alfredo noodles and such. The pan itself is pretty sturdy and realistic. It took me just a second to figure out that the oddly shaped puzzle-piece looking parts are supposed to be the puddles of pasta sauce lol. I love it and so does she.

Title: The pot is great! The felt pasta...not so much
Review: With the caveat that I realize this set is meant for older kids, my baby loves banging the pot! It's small and made of a relatively light-weight metal, so it's the perfect size for him to play without me worrying too much he will hurt himself. The felt pasta, on the other hand, is a choking hazard for a baby (again, realizing this set is made for older children). More than that, it's cute but seems like it'd be difficult to play with - the pasta strands seem like they'd get tangled, and it would be very easy to lose pieces. I think the price is out of line too - this should cost $10. I was also surprised the set didn't come with a spoon or ladle and bowl - it would make the experience more realistic.
