Full answer
The Coco Village Wooden Play Kitchen – Maison Collection is certified to meet ASTM, SOR (Canada), CE, AS/NZS ISO 8124, and UKCA safety standards, including requirements related to chemical components and child safety. These certifications place it among wooden play kitchens tested against internationally recognized child-safety benchmarks.
Like any pretend play kitchen with small hardware and accessories, this kitchen carries a choking hazard warning due to its buttons, hooks, and hinge components. It is not intended for children under 3 years of age, and adult assembly and supervision are required at all times.
Parents should ensure the kitchen is properly assembled and placed on a flat, stable surface before use. Children should never be allowed to climb, sit, or stand on the kitchen, and the piece should be inspected regularly, with use discontinued if it becomes damaged, unstable, or worn.
