Better than Pottery Barn! REALLY sturdy

See my review about the table that matches this. This set is great for the smaller child/toddler. It is incredibly sturdy. I don't know what they are talking about "small parts, not for children under 3", I mean it's a CHAIR, there are no parts that come off! My very tall two-year-old toddler LOVES this chair. Other furniture (PBK) is too tall. this is perfect.

Perfect for little ones and big ones

These chairs were very easy to put together and are the perfect size for my three-year-old and sturdy enough for adults to sit on, too. They look great with the other Mission-style furniture we have in our art room.

Excellent!!!

We just purchased these chairs (to go with the matching table) and I am completely impressed with the quality of them. They are very sturdy, very nice looking and very much a good investment on our part - our kids will use these for years. I hesitated at the price of them, but after receiving them in the mail I didn't regret spending the money on such fine furniture.

Chairs are wonderful. They went together easy. Electric screwdriver is a lifesaver. Sturdy construction will last forever.

Sturdy, good quality chairs!

I bought a pair of these when my daughter was 1 and had to climb up onto them. Now she's 2 1/2 and they fit her perfectly, yet are certainly strong enough to hold a parent who wants to sit down with their child.

I disagree that they were easy to put together, but probably that is because all I had was a manual screwdriver and by the time you have screwed two-dozen or so screws into wood, it gets painful! Also, they might seem expensive, but the quality is worth it. These chairs will last for generations!

I wish Amazon had carried them when I purchased mine. I paid about $20 more than their price and at that time that was the best price I could find!

Great, though pricey

We bought these chairs to go with the Little Tikes Mission Design wood table. Not only are they are perfect match (they are, after all, from the same collection), but they are sturdy, well made and beautiful. The light natural wood coloring coordinates well with our furniture and this table and chair set can be used anywhere in the house without fear of staining the table or chairs. There is a light coating of finish that is virtually impenetrable and allows for easy clean up.

My nearly 3 year old daughter, who is 38 inches tall, has no trouble fitting under the table in these chairs. She loves this set and so do I! It was super easy to assemble (I did it myself in less than 30 minutes). The chairs are sturdy and durable, yet light enough for my daughter to be able to move them with ease.

I would buy these again in a heartbeat and would recommend them to anyone who is in the market for a great table and chairs set!

	Dora the Explorer Mr. Face Plush Backpack Review: My daughter is a big Dora fan and uses this backpack to carry around her favorite toys and books, which is why I gave it 5 stars for educational value. My friend's daughter has it as well, and love hers too. We've had it 6 months now and it's holding up just fine. The map opens up for an added bonus. My daughter likes to wear it and sing the backpack song from the show.
	Star Wars Episode III: Darth Vader Voice Changer Helmet Wow, do I ever wish they had this out when I was a kid! I bought it, and my wife, kids and I have all been playing with it. It has a chest box with several buttons that plays about 5 of Darth's quotes from the movies, or you can switch it to voice changer. The voice changer is fun! It has 3 different levels of depth for changing the voice. ... A must for Star Wars Geeks!!!!
