This is the perfect slide for my daredevil grandson.  At almost 3 years old, this slide is tall enough for him to have fun on the stairs, climbing up the slide as well as going down.  For me, there are plenty of safety features that give me confidence he will be safe.  He actually wanted to have his afternoon snack sitting atop the slide.  Step 2 is ALWAYS my go to brand for fun and safety.  Thanks.
