If space or money is tight, or if you just don't want to get a fancy kid's table, this is a perfect table. It's lightweight, which is it's main drawback, as a kid can slide it around unintentionally. However, it's amazingly sturdy (we have it against the wall), and I suspect our daughter could stand on it without breaking it. The chairs are also very sturdy, evrything is built with really big posts and thick plastic, so it's tough. We didn't put that sticker on the side, so it looks a little better. There's a slight sloping lip (about an inch) around the edge that stops crayons or pencils from rolling off. It wipes clean and disassembles easily for storage or travel. Frankly, it seems pretty indestructable, andf my 19 m-o daughter loves it.

We bought this table and chairs set for our 2 year old son's birthday. We wanted a table his height where he could sit and enjoy a snack or play with playdoh, puzzles, or crayons. It is the perfect size and very sturdy. It fits neatly in a little corner of our small kitchen. Occasionally our son climbs on top of it, and it seems very stable. The chairs do slide on a tile floor, but we just keep the whole set up on a kitchen rug as much as possible. It's a great buy for the money, and clean up is so easy. I look forward to using outside in the future.

Other than the table being a different color, it is exactly the same table I purchased for my children. Now I have purchased it for my granddaughter and she enjoys sitting at it as much as her mother did. She puts her large teddy bear on the other chair while she colors or does a puzzle. The chairs are still as sturdy as before as they hold mommy, daddy, grandma, and grandpa. When we decided that we wanted to purchase a table for her, our first thought was to get the Little Tikes if it was still in circulation. When we discovered that it was, we looked no further and sent for it. The set came promptly and grandpa set it up in a flash. As we watch her play, we can still remember her mother, aunt, and uncle using their set. My daughter recalled the legs being green and the top was white with the same yellow chairs. Many manufacturers today cut corners on their products to save money but it does not appear that this item has changed in quality. Thanks for the memories Little Tikes both past and present!!

My one-year old little boy is too small for the chairs at the moment and also not yet able to hold a crayon properly to draw. So, I would have thought that the table wouldn't be much use to him at this stage. I would have been wrong. The table has become a bit of a "base station". He holds on to it and gravitates to it a lot. I use it to feed him snacks and he stands at the table and eats them, then takes his water sippy cup off the table to drink it. This was particularly useful when, due to medical reasons, I had a few days of not being able to lift him. That meant his high chair was out. I can see this table being more and more useful as time goes on. Although not recommended, I can sit on the chairs (136lbs) with no thought that I am in danger of a huge loss in dignity. All in all, I am very pleased with this purchase.

I also like that the table is square (with rounded edges).

Like another reviewer, I didn't put the stickers around the edge. I prefer it like that.

It should be noted that the instructions say not to disassemble the table once the legs are joined to the table top. I am glad I noticed this caveat as we move a lot and I might have done that had I not noticed.

My daughter received this table for Christmas at 16 mo's old. Just a week before, she had started making "table and chairs" out of everything. She loves it. It took a little work for her to figure out how to get onto the chairs since they're a little high for her (she's about 31" tall now). Within a week, though, she's managed a method for getting onto the chairs just fine. She's already got crayon on it and it cleans up fine. I'm happy that I don't have to worry about cleaning the paint right off like some of my friends wooden/painted tables.
The only negative I have is that I can't sit on the chairs. I'm an avg/petite size woman but the chairs only hold up to 70#....Luckily the table is low enough to be able to kneel at it pretty comfortably. Admittedly, the chairs would not make a comfortable fit for an adult anyway.

I thought a Little Tikes Table and Chair set would be durable. I was aware it was plastic but thought it would be a heavier plastic, so I was suprised when it arrived. I would have exchanged it but my granddaughter on the other hand loves it. She loves dragging it from room to room! Only at grandma's house! If she was here often I would have switched to a wood set.

The chair is a little high for my tall 14-month-old to sit in by himself, but he has had HOURS of fun pushing the chairs around the house. He also likes to sit at the table and have a snack, and he likes the fact that he can reach items that we put on the table. We didn't put the stickers around the edge of the table, as we find it looks better without them. No complaints at all about this product. I anticipate we will get years of enjoyment from it.

I bought this table for my 2 year old son. When he first saw it, he LOVED it! But I guess the "newness" wore off and he isn't too excited about it now. I bought it so that he could eat and not have to sit on his knees. He rarely eats there. He would much more prefer to sit at the grown up table. I will say that it is durable. On occasion he will ask me to sit there wit him while takes on whatever task. I was a lot apprehensive to sit on one of those plastic chairs. But it held up well. I have sat on it a few time and it didn't cave in. LOL!!! All in all, it was a good purchase. Maybe he will use it more as he gets a little older.

This is a cute table, but it's so light that it slides around all over the place. My 2-year-old son likes eating snacks at the table, but when he leans against it, it slides away and he stumbles. Same thing with the chairs. It's just not really practical to have this table slipping and sliding all over the kitchen. I'll be looking for something more sturdy that actually stays in place!

We bought this table and chairs set for my 2 year old son. It is very durable, easy to clean, and is light.

Positives:

-The edge of the table has a lip on it, so crayons and other items won't roll off (but not enough of one that your child could get hurt on it)
-There are no sharp corners!
-When on carpet, the tables and chairs do move, but the table is very sturdy
-Very easy to put together- it took me all of 3 minutes!

Negatives:
-The stickable border is ugly- but the tables looks better without it (it doesn't come already on thank goodness)
- The chairs will topple if your child isn't used to sitting on them... that being said, your child probably won't get hurt from falling on the table and chairs because they are light plastic.

We love this set and are very happy with it!
