I bought this for 3 and 5 year olds. The top is not too high so thats why we bought it,also the price. The bottom is low, its good for the 3 year old (she's a small 3 year old). This will last 4 years max. Pretty. Easy enough to put together. Wish they labeled the parts (since that was mom's job then). Ladder had a crack in 1 step - calling company to see about a replacement - hopefully all goes well. Overall good purchase.
