I decided to buy this for my children because of the reviews I had seen with the table and chairs set. I was worried that my 1 year old would tip the chairs (she loves to climb) and my almost 4 year old would be to big. So I decided to get a picnic table for their indoor play. Which turned out to be great it's perfect for both of my younger children. The first thing my 1 year old did is climb on top and I didn't have to worry that she would tip it over. And it does double duty because this summer they can play with it out in the backyard.
