    Well that was six months ago and I have yet to receive it. When you order from that site it charges your credit card instantly so I am out the $250 I scrimped and saved to buy it
    So not this one (though I still love the look of it)!
    Wow, I bought this one from them and it came very quickly and is one of my favorite things I have ever bought for my daycare. So beautiful. I wonder what happened in your case. I'd be seriously upset

      I made my own, SUPER easy, under 100, including accessories, from tweaked ana white plans. There is a photo of the set in my album on here.

      I am making a new one, though with wood/black accessories, and the matching 'stacking' washer/dryer.

        Also make a complaint to the Better Business Bureau. A lot of times they respond to that. Also, never buy anything without looking at the BBB rating. Also go directly to the BBB site to look at a company's rating. If they just display the BBB logo on their website it might be fake. I found one that was!!

        I don't want to hijack the thread but thanks for the advice. I submitted a complaint to the BBB. Hopefully that resolves the matter!

          I love this idea

            I re purposed an old $2 yard sale IKEA side table.( I'm just to darn cheap to shell out the bucks for a kitchen! ) It's a good size/height for the kids and it's on wheels which is handy. I painted it white, painted 4 burners on it and attached real stove knobs (salvaged from an old stove). I screwed 2 inch screws halfway through each sides, in a row of 4 to hang things on.
            All the dishes and such are real kitchen items, thrift store finds and some wicker baskets of wood food. Total cost was under $20!
            It's worked out so well, it's simple, easy to wipe down and I can keep it in the playroom or wheel it into the kitchen.

              You're welcome.

              It probably will if they are a reputable company.

                Just wanted to update. After I filed with the BBB the company had ten days to reply to the complaint. Well, the company chose to ignore the complaint and because the BBB is not an enforcement agency there isn't anything they can do
