Stage 3 is our beautifully designed kitchen set, which has all the essential working appliances to bring your cooking productions to life. Our 10-foot-long Quartz Island includes a gas cooktop with no obstructions for camera angles.

Stage 3 includes an oven that bakes and roasts to perfection, plus a microwave, sink, and refrigerator to keep your ingredients fresh. A grid sits above the island for camera attachments and the ability to outfit with your own lights to ensure the perfect ambiance for your culinary creations.
Whether you’re shooting a cooking show, a food commercial, or any production that requires a kitchen’s elegant and functional environment, our kitchen set is your ticket to success.
Our team is committed to providing you with a seamless and hassle-free experience. We have meticulously designed the set to be versatile, practical, and visually appealing — all to make your creative process smooth and enjoyable.
So, let the aromatic wonders and tantalizing tastes take center stage in your next production. Secure this incredible opportunity to transform your culinary vision into a mouth-watering reality.
