Does the Coco Village Play Kitchen require assembly?
Quick answer
Yes, the kitchen requires adult assembly using several sizes of screws and hardware, including hinges, sliding rail components, and the microwave unit. It should never be assembled by children, and all parts must be kept out of reach until assembly is complete.
Full answer
Yes. The Coco Village Wooden Play Kitchen – Maison Collection requires adult assembly before children can use it. The included assembly guide walks through each step, using five sizes of screws — including 37 pieces of M4 x 35mm, 19 pieces of M4 x 20mm, 8 pieces of M4 x 18mm, 16 pieces of M4 x 8mm, and 12 pieces of M3 x 8mm — along with hinges, door catches, and sliding rail hardware to build the cabinet frame, oven, sink, countertop, and microwave shelf.
Because the hardware used during assembly includes small screws with sharp points, adult assembly and supervision are required at all times, and children should not be involved in the assembly process. All assembly parts and packaging materials should be kept out of reach of children before, during, and after assembly.
Once fully assembled, parents should ensure the kitchen is properly put together and placed on a flat, stable surface before allowing children to play with it. Screws, hinges, doors, hooks, and hardware should also be checked regularly and tightened if needed.
