Will bend, warp quickly

2008-09-17
I bought this table for inside use. I liked the idea of bench seating for my toddlers. It is a safe table with big some issues. As soon as your child sits on the table (& believe me he won't be able to resist :) the table will sway/bend in the middle & stay that way. It makes it worthless for building blocks, arts, etc....it becomes a tea party table only & even then frustrates kids because nothing will stand up on it. You won't want to give them real food on it because everything will topple & fall off.
I just ordered 2 desk size Virco tables with adjustable legs because I know they will never bend. I really don't recommend this table unless you find it at a garage sale for $5 & only want a outdoor play table that swoops down in the middle. Mine is for sale by the way :)

Great table

We bought this table for our 2 year olds birthday. We had looked at the EasyStore Jr table at Toys R Us and thought it was too small and the top was flimsy and uneven. This table is very roomy and also easy to clean. It is a little heavy, very durable and slightly difficult to lock the legs when setting up, but it suits our needs perfectly.

My boys got this table for Christmas so we've used it indoors for the last few months and I absolutely love it. However, I am having the WORST time trying to find the umbrella that goes with it. It has a hole for an umbrella, but I can't find one in stores or on-line anywhere.

Little Tykes table

The only thing I wish came with this table was something that mentions the weight limit for the bench style seats.
An older child sat in the middle of the seat and it is now permanantly curved(bent).
Other than having some kind of weight restriction information, I find this table very useful and benefitial to my childs playing outside.

	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!!!!
