Plan Toy Food and Beverage Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I love this Plan Toys Set. Honestly, it exceeded my expectations. The sizing of the items is perfect, and goes well with our other Erzi, Estia, and larger Haba play foods. The simple designs really work well, and each item is easy to identify for what it is. The best surprise in my mind is that not only do the lids for the honey & jam come off (they're interchangeable too), but the jam and honey jars are hollow on the inside, allowing for a place to store things. Perhaps some little jam & honey felt-food slices for the kids bread? Too cool.
As always, I had wished before I purchased these that another reviewer had mentioned the measurements, as our kitchen from Santa is a gift to both my almost-4-year-old and my almost-2-year-old and I don't want to buy things that have such small parts that they will have to be put away for next year. So, here are my measurements:
Milk: 1.75"w x 1.75" depth x 2.75" tall
Water: 4.5" tall, 1.5" diameter
Juice: 4.7" tall, 1.5" diameter
Ketchup: 1.6"w (at base) 1"w (at top), .9" depth, 4.25" tall
Jam (without top): 2.2" tall , 1.75" diameter
Honey (without top): 1.45" tall, 1.75" diameter
Honey & Jam Lids: 1.75" diameter, .6" thick
If there is an item in this set that could pose a choking risk, it would be the lids. However, you really have to push them down to get them into a toilet paper tube, and then they get stuck. I believe a toilet paper tube is actually larger in diameter than a true choking-test tube. I'd classify them as a borderline choking hazard. While there are glued on parts to the other bottles/carton that could pose a risk should they detach, our set seems securely glued together.
Really these are very well-made, pretty safe size-wise, and pleasantly smooth to the touch. Best of all Plan Toys' surface paints have been independently tested by the ecology center, and so you don't just have to rely on claims that their paints are safe, you've got xrf tests substantiating those claims.
I think this is a great set, at a great price (we got it 30-something percent off). Highly recommended.
