Find Best Price at Amazon"It is made of quality material, comes with a fire extinguisher and a megaphone (doesn't actually work) that doubles as a siren (requires batteries), a helmet and a badge that is removable."
"It comes with the jacket that closes with Velcro, plastic badge, fire extinguisher that squirts water, bullhorn that makes a siren sound , and an adjustable helmet."
"His only disappointment was that the fire extinguisher doesn't open to put water in it (but his parents were happy about that!)."
"I bought this firmen's outfit because the one I have from another brand is so cheap, I was afraid it would fall apart before Halloween. Even the silk screened "Fire Chief" on the back of the jacket is done with quality...thick ink and no gaps in the silkscreen."
"The “tools” (megaphone and extinguisher) do not stay in their holsters, unfortunately."
"My granddaughter loves it!"
"His brother got the construction worker one, and they got walkie talkies to go along with them, so that they could communicate while they're working."
"HI; I bought this item for my son he should dress it on Halloween, I must tell you that i'v bought several costumes in my life, but such like this one I never had it look so great on him almost like a real fireman, my son was so happy with it, I couldnt get him undressed."
Equip your little doctor with this realistic role-play set, complete with five sturdy plastic tools for pretend-play checkups. Includes jacket, mask, stethoscope, reflex hammer, ear scope, syringe, and reusable name tag.

Find Best Price at Amazon"It's been almost a year and she still plays with the toys and outfit, which by the way have not gotten damaged after normal wear and tear over that time frame."
"In the end, I actually bought both, and this is why: The Melissa & Doug kit has the adorable jacket and is a good price for all it contains, but it does not have a blood pressure cuff, which is something my son was really interested in. It needed a very specific battery, which I found in the jewelry department of our local major retail store that starts with a "W" and ends with "Mart." Since I had the Fisher Price kit, we just combined all the medical equipment into that storage bag, and it fit nicely."
"My daughter wanted to be a doctor for Halloween so I figured this coat would be perfect for her."
"I finally put batteries in the stethoscope, but the "heartbeat" was pretty creepy and not authentic sounding."
"Reading reviews suggested going for this over a cheaper one and I’m so appreciative of that recommendation!"
"He didn't want to wear the stethoscope on his ears but he liked letting others listen."
"Our 3 year old got this for Christmas and has played with it every day since."
"The outfits all have pockets, velcro closures, headpieces, name tags, and at least 3 accessories that make play dress up so much fun for my 4 1/2 year old."

"It's rather thin; no better than the cheaper versions that are being sold this year at Bed, Bath & Beyond and other places for $19.99."
"THe description is totally wrong -- it is in no way a PLUS SIZE EXTRA LARGE."
"This sweater is in men's sizes not women's."
"The print area and back are both double-thickness woven yarn, and the whole thing is actually really well put together."
"i am having the theme ugly christmas sweaters this year and as gag gifts i am giving my whole family different sweaters. the price is right for alot of these- $10 and under."
"This was a great Christmas Sweater."
"Gave it four stars just because of the price and the substance of this cute sweater. It was mass produced (had to be for the price) and isn't as cheaply done as I would be concerned about in this price point for a sweater."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I don't think this is what you want to buy if you are doing really heavy makeup, and it definitely won't stay long on other parts of your body where you have more sweat and oil, but it is fine for simple makeup effects on the face so long as you don't secrete a lot of sweat or oil."
"Works better as face paint (lizard) than a make up substitute (Harley Quinn) but overall, good quality and easy to use."
"I dressed up in the crayon outfit with 3 others on Halloween and we were able to use these for coloring our faces."
"Highly recommended by my granddaughter, who delightfully painted her willing daddy's face at the first opportunity."
"I was a little disappointed in the black color."
"The crayons didn't work as well as some of the other reviews that I have read."
"These crayons were used more than the face paints we purchased."
"It took a lot of scrubbing with soap and water and we had to go back a few times."

Fun buttons and levers to play with. Cute little gas tank. Cons: Not easy to push if not a skilled walker. Would definitely buy again."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"Our son, 1 1/2-years-old, is OBSESSED with vacuums and carpet cleaners. He has nearly broken my vacuum a few times because it's a bit too large for him to maneuver."
"The first is a small red button on the front, that makes the little foam beads swirl around. Which doesn't bother me since it's a play vacuum, but they do advertise that it has a mild suction."
"You have to click it into position a certain way, otherwise the back wheels will pop up when you pull the vacuum backward."
"My one and half year old loves to clean but my stuff is still quite too big for him."
"It is designed to do this but I have to pick it up and adjust the base to get it to stand up when not in use, my 9, 3, and 1 yr old can not get it to stand up."
"Unfortunately, the swiveling head part snapped off after 4 days."
"I put two new sets of batteries in the vacuum and both times it stopped working within a minute."
"Dust bin particles cause static (plastic bits on plastic) which cause them to just stick to the inside of the bin. No way to remove bin to eliminate the static other than tearing the unit apart. Button to turn on motor to spin around the now stuck plastic bits gets itself stuck from plastic flex of the handle."

"We teamed up with family to purchase several big "play" items for our daughter's birthday/Christmas in 2015, and this is without a doubt my favorite of everything she got! We ended up buying the Learning Resources basket meals to go with it because it had a nice variety and was fantastic quality."
"The kitchen was packaged and shipped very carefully. I will admit putting this kitchen together was a little overwhelming at first and it took several hours. No matter how frustrating it is believe me, it is worth it!.I really love how this kitchen doesn't have any stickers. The graphics on this kitchen are painted on which is awesome in my book! The counter height of the kitchen is 22 inches. The counter length is 32 inches. The inner width of the freezer and fridge is 10 inches. The overall height of the kitchen is approximately 40.5 inches. The play food and play pots and pans in the photos are by Learning Resources."
"Once it's put together it's very nice."
"It might be a bit more expensive than some of the others, but it's SOLID and wood, not plastic and cardboard like so many other products these days."
"Other than that, it's very cute and extremely functional, doors all close and latch well, and even though it's compressed board wood, it's very sturdy."
"I gave it four stars because some of the screws come with both silver and brown, and we did not have enough of the brown screws in order to use for all of the espresso pieces."
