Hape Deluxe Kitchen with Running Water vs Hongge Pretend Play Kitchen

Buy the Deluxe Kitchen if you want a wooden play kitchen with a real recirculating water pump and a light-up stove that will hold up to years of use. The Hongge has more parts and a chalkboard, but owners report confusing assembly, missing pieces and unresponsive support. The Deluxe costs more, and its wood build and working faucet are the reasons reviewers call it wonderful.

• Choose the Deluxe Kitchen if you want a sturdy wooden set with a working recirculating faucet and a light-up, sound-making stove.
• Choose the Hongge if you want a larger set with a dishwasher, oven, chalkboard and more storage for less money.
