Play kitchen help

in Success after IF

I think for Dillon's birthday I am going to buy him a toy kitchen. The problem is that my house is small and I am trying to find one that will not take up a huge amount of space.

Does anyone have a smaller type of kitchen they could recommend? I am thinking of going plastic rather then wood so next spring we can move it outside for him to play with - maybe. 

All the ones I am finding online just seem so huge! 

A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

    I think some of the step 2 plastic ones are pretty small. They look big but when you read the dimensions (or go see them, I've seen them at tru) they are really pretty small. Fwiw, I love our kidkraft, which is somewhat large (And wooden) but they also make some that are quite compact. You just have to really read the dimensions because the pics can be really deceiving and there is a great deal of variance even within the same brand.

    We got a small one at a yard sale and our house is small too.  The kids liked it...but the one we have is too small for us now I think.  I would get the biggest one that you can fit...we are going to upgrade or DIY a new one at Christmas.

    Ikea has a nice small one, but, it's wood.

    What about Elmo's restaurant?  It's pretty small.

    My SIL got my daughter a FP kitchen (we already had a PBK wood set though so didn't need/want 2 kitchens!) which wasn't overly huge and is plastic.  In terms of size, it wasn't that large but I'm not sure what a small kitchen is in size but this one was also adjustable (could raise height as child grows and had an expandable 'counter' area to lengthen it).  We gave it to my brother and I will say my daughter still loves to use it when we visit.  The things she loves most are some of the battery-operated elements - a blender that 'blended' and a stove top that made a boiling noise.  I'm not sure how those would fare outside though.

    (it looks bigger in this picture b/c the kitchen is fully raised and counter is 'lengthened'.  The 2nd row w/ microwave & oven disappears behind the bottom row when it's smaller and the counter area hanging over the side on the right doesn't have to be added if you don't want).
