It was way overpriced or I would have given it 5 stars. I found one much cheaper after I spent almost $100 for this one. BUT it's nice. It's sturdy. I have 2 grandchildren, a 5 yr old and a 1 yr old, who visit at different times, but both sit and color in books here or write on the board with chalk. I didn't think the 1 yr old would like it as much and thought he may have been too little, but I was wrong.
