My 2 year old uses this table to store all his small toys and to sit down and play at.  The surface is great for coloring, play dough etc.. it just wipes clean with water.  It is very sturdy and is the perfect height for my big guy.  Even my husband and I sit on the chairs for play time!  Took my husband about a half hour to assemble.  The only thing I would prefer is that there was 2 red and 2 blue bins instead of red, blue, yellow and green.  Really not such a big deal but wish they all matched the chairs.
