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.

I may have gotten a bad batch, but the fruit pieces do not stick together well. We've had them a few months and it seems to be getting harder to stick the pieces together.
Must have for toddler kitchens

We were gifted this for Christmas and my son LOVES it! But the Velcro did not last long, only about 2 weeks. So now we have to hold it together to cut.
Nice gift great wooden fruit.

Just got this toy and the wood is already chipped and the Velcro doesn't stick too well. Comes with a giant knife but no cutting board. We decided to keep it because my 2 yr old loves cutting fruits, but the other set that he has is way better.
Great for two year old

Love this item. My son plays with it often. My only complaint is the Velcro on the kiwi was a bit off, but the rest of it is fine and he loves it.

My 2.5 year loved the wooden play fruit set. She sits and cuts through each fruit over and over again. The fruits are very realistic and durable. Planning on purchasing other fruit sets from Melissa & Doug
These are so much fun!

My son can not stop cutting his fruit! As soon as he wakes up, he’s chopping away, in my bed lol, trying to wake me up! It’s so cute.

The velcro is too weak for the wooden objects. After 1 month of occasional and supervised use, the vegetables no longer stay together and several velcro pieces are missing. My biggest problem however is storage. Surely some type of cover or way to contain the pieces should be included. Very disappointed.

I got this for my daughter when she was a 1.5. She absolutely loved it and would take it with her to every room to practice cutting. I rotated it at 26 months and she still loves it

Love the concept but left disappointed in the quality. The fruit is cracking and the paint is peeling after two months of occasional play.
