DISCUSSION: A "READY-MADE" Kids Play Kitchen vs. "DIY" Kids Play Kitchen...

I have been going back and forth on whether to go ahead and buy a ready-made play kitchen or just build one ourselves. There are so many beautiful play kitchens out there that I have fallen in love with. As a child, I loved my play kitchen, but it was nothing close to the extravagantly detailed play kitchens they have now. My little kitchen was a small, plastic kitchen that I had already outgrown, when it was given to me. The kitchens I see now are small enough for a toddler to use, but large enough for the bigger kids to still use! I have seen many blogs for "DIY" play kitchens and they, too, are phenomenal, so I cannot decide! Please help me make my decision on what may be the best! Thanks in advance!!

Did you purchase a ready-made play kitchen for your child?
Are you happy with your purchase?
Have you seen the "DIY" play kitchens?
Would you have rather "DIY" based on the creativity and originality of the "DIY" play kitchens?
Did you want to design and build your own play kitchen, but have restrictions with building space, possession of tools, complexities, etc.?
Did you "DIY"?
Was it more difficult than you thought it was going to be?
Would you have rather purchased a ready-made one to save you from the headache of building?
Did the play kitchen you made come out the way it was supposed to?
