My 22-month old daughter loves this table, and enjoys it every evening on our porch.  She loves that it is just her size, and she can get as messy as she wants, right before bath!  We have had up to 3 other children playing at the table, without any elbow-bumping or fighting.The only downside I have found, is that she loves to dump the sand from the sandbox side into the water (not a table flaw - -just how children play!).  I clean out the water side a few times per week, and refill it.  However, that is an easy task because of the drain plug included on this model, that most others do not have.I highly recommend it, for children under 3.  It is perfect for 18 mo - 3 years.  The table is too short for older children.  Enjoy!
