Very cute for any little one and appears to be sturdy enough to last till its outgrown. Husband, who has little assembly experience (I always did it for our girls) was able to put it together in about an hour.  My only disappointment was in the finish on the table....it had a slight defect but a child wouldnt care.  I chose this set because of the bench...those you dont see its always just chairs.  Overall I was very pleased and my granddaughter was excited...and that is what matters most.
