Never before has less than $40 bought so much fun! I bought this for my then 17 mo old daughter last October. It's now mid February and she's almost 23 months old. She's spent an unbelievable amount of time playing with this toy, even during the winter! This is one purchase I don't at all regret - in fact, I plan on buying this as a go-to impressive looking, fun, yet inexpensive birthday gift for other toddlers. Is this garden table just a bunch of plastic? Yes, but it's not shabby in design or construction. It's typical of Little Tikes brand standards IMO. I think they do an excellent job making safe, inexpensive, well thought out toys for young children. And like other Little Tikes products, this garden table does seem shorter/smaller than I thought it would be when we first unpackaged it. But the height has been 100% fine even for my admittedly VERY big for her age daughter (she's the size of a 3 yo - 3 ft tall, 30 lbs.) I've never seen my daughter stoop to play at the table but even if she did I don't think that would take one second of joy away from her play time with it. "Joy" is actually the first word that comes to my mind as I watch her play with it: scooping up dirt, pouring it into pots, watering her creations, flinging dirt on her head (sigh - oh well! Bath time afterwards!), running around w/ her wee shovel and spade thingy, laughing hysterically, and presenting me, her delighted, proud mom, w/ the plastic flower part the set comes with...a gift of love...or maybe appreciation for buying her this awesome toy?! My daughter never, ever tires of this set. I bought her a cute garden themed board book and an additional toy shovel, spade, rake, watering can set to go with this. When it got too cold and snowy for her to use this toy outside I hosed it all off and put it in our indoor sunroom for her to play with it there. As such, we ended up having hours and hours of fun playing with it indoors also - I simply let her use it in our (heated) sunroom w/ water instead of dirt. She had a grand old time! It really helped keep my daughter busy and happy when the weather kept us indoors. Next winter I'll probably buy a bag of sand for when we bring it back indoors again. I'm certain she'll still be playing with it then. Despite how much she's played with it and though I've left it outside in sun, rain, sleet, and light snow, it's in terrific shape. Our dog nibbled on a piece or two but aside from a few minor chew marks it's still totally fine. This set is much more durable than it looks. My daughter loves this toy set so much I've let her take pieces of it (the pots, flowers, etc) into the tub. Why not? They made great bath toys. I've also unclasped the shovel out of her hand as she's fallen asleep, utterly shocked and bewildered as to how she snuck it past me into the house and into her bed. Ha ha! Now THAT really proves how much she loves it!
I can't recommend this toy highly enough. It has been such a great purchase! I honestly believe my daughter has had more fun with this than she has with other kid's expensive outdoor playhouses and swing sets. She uses her imagination AND gets tons of exercise with this versatile, durable, and, in our case, indoor-outdoor toy. Love it!

Great for all ages
I purchased this product for my daughters second birthday. She absolutely loves it. I have a six year old who loves it just as much if not more. My girls have been using this toy on a daily basis for about two weeks now, with no signs of it getting boring. While using it as a play table it only stands about a foot off the ground. It has a fairly deep tub for storage, which has a hole at the bottom for drainage. All the little pieces such as the shovel, rake, and flower pots, all fit nicely. You can remove both sides from the top of the play table very easily and pop them right back when wanted. The assembly was very quick and easy to put together. You will need a philips head screwdriver for attaching the legs to the tub. The accessories included are all good quality and super cute. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a cute and fun gift for the little ones.
