Kids really enjoy this set.

This is our second set of "cutting" play food. The grandkids still use the first one. We love the realistic look, as well as how the products last.

Weak Velcro

We love Melissa & Doug products, however, this is the first one that we’ve had issues with the Velcro. It’s super weak. And no, it’s not a weak overtime. I requested a replacement and it was exactly the same. I plan on just switching out the Velcro myself as my kids love cutting their fruits & veggies!

Weak velcro

I bought this one week ago for my daughter and I am very disappointed in the quality. I am shocked because Melissa and Doug toys are normally my favorite very high quality toys however this cutting fruit set is very disappointing. Multiple pieces barely hold together and it’s brand new. It seems like the design is bad and the Velcro needs to stick out more than it does to actually be affective.

Cool toy but disappointed

I was really excited about this toy and had been wanting it for a long time. Finally got it for my daughter. She's been playing with it for 2 months or so and the kiwi no longer stays together. One of hte other fruits is starting to wear away too. I was hesitant b/c it was velcro but I thought it'd last longer than this.

Pass

These are cute but the Velcro stops working. I literally had to hide them because the kids got frustrated the pieces wouldn’t stick together. Save your money

Quality

Great quality! My hope for buying these was to give play wooden fruit to my daughter - she loves mouthing and exploring these! I also appreciate the wooden basket for cleanup purposes.

Paint chipping off in under a week

We’ve had this toy for less than a week and the paint is already substantially chipping off of the toy fruits. I loved the concept of this, but at this rate they most likely won’t last. This is my first Melissa & Doug purchase, with this quality it will most likely be my last.

It's always about quality with Melissa & Doug

I love Melissa and Doug products. Great quality and durable. I am a pediatric physical therapist and my kiddos are hard on all the toys. Melissa and Doug products stand up to the repeated use. Grown-ups like playing with the kids' toys as well (truth be told).

Great for pretend play

My children 5 and 6 have always been so fascinated with the sliced fruit and veggie toys. They’re at the ages now where pretend play is in full force! I grabbed this one for a Christmas gift and I’m so impressed with the size of the toy. The weight of it tells me this is going to last for a great amount of time. I also really love that it comes with a wooden bin included. That’s really an awesome plus to this toy. Now these things will have a place after they use it each time.

Its cute

Cute, but feels a little cheap. The paint chips off pretty easily. The wooden box it comes in has already broken. The cantaloupe is made of cheaper thinner wood than the others. And the knife slices through pretty realistically. It is really cute don’t regret buying it just think the price should be lower.
