My son loves it, but its a little wobbly
My son just loves this toy. He is 13 months old, and he returns to it several times per day. That said, his interest is almost entirely in the piano portion, which is detachable. So far, he has no interest in the "lego-like" things. He does play with the other half (little creatures which move and make noise), and enjoys them, but not as much as the piano. Of course, he has many music toys, and comes to this more often because it is raised, and as a pre-walker, he prefers to stand.

Problem: he loves to climb, and tries to climb ONTO this table all the time. It is way to wobbly (spelling?) for that, so I'm constantly telling him not to do that. He does seem to be learning, but I still have to keep an eye on him. However, I wouldn't trade this toy for any other he has right now. Not a day has gone by that he hasn't spent 30-60 minutes at it throughout the day since it arrived. ... Read more

Cool Bed!
I feel that buying this bed was the best thing that we did for our son. He loves it so much he couldn't wait until my husband and I were finished putting it together which was very easy. One of my associates wants to buy one for her son. I can't believe how much of a difference this bed made in my son's life. Creating a bed out of a car was the most incredible decision.

thrilled parents!
Our one year-old son adores this bed. He had only slept about 3 nights soundly through the night in his crib. He's been in this bed for 5 nights now and he's slept through each one! He is walking and runs into his room and jumps on the thing. It was very easy to put together and looks fantastic. We highly recommend this bed. ... Read more

poor construction
I just got this bed for my 22month old son & wish that I hadn't!! The construction on this bed is horrible, it feels like my son could pull it apart by himself, or that it will come apart if he jumps on it too much( what toddler do you know that doesn't love to jump on beds?). My 4 year old's bed was cheaper & feels a hundred times sturdier, I lay with my boys for bed time eveynight & I'm afraid to sit on this bed( I am not a big person either!). Also the bed did not come with anything to support the mattress, considering that we paid $220 for this, it should have atleast had something!!! I recommend the fire engine bed by stage 2, it was cheaper & 10 x's sturdier!!!! ... Read more

Expensive, but great quality
I was really torn over whether this table justified it's price; especially since it doesn't include the play top, which you have to buy seperately. Despite the price, I do have to say, I'm very happy with the quality of the product.

When the table arrived the box was dinged, but thankfully the contents inside were well packed with styrofoam and cardboard protecting each piece.

The wood is high quality with easy to connect fastners. Very stable. The train images on the side of the table and on the legs are great. They weren't stickers, but actually some kind of high quality painted image that has a very durable finish on it. Some of the train images even have a full plastic face piece for Thomas and each of his friends.

The table is well designed for a toddler's height and the allows them to reach to the center.

Needless to say my 2 year old son loves it! He wakes up in the morning, says choo choo and runs out to go play at the table.

Not a sturdy table
My sister in law bought this table for her 2 yr old son for Xmas....it is way overpriced for what it is....i wanted to buy one for our sons but could not see spending that much money on such a cheap table. So my husband ended up buying plans to build your own train table and built our sons their own with built in drawers and (...) and it is way nicer and sturdier than the Thomas one. Yes they can all stand on it...! We painted it in Thomas colors and decorated it and it is the nicest looking table i have ever seen and all the kids love it!!!! you can build one in about 8 hrs or so....worth it!!! this will be handed down to the next generations...

Substitute for the table/frame/
We admired the table for really long time and saw that it's worth spending money but decided to figure out smth cheaper. So we painted our old coffee table almost the same Thomas blue color and attached the board to it. Our 2year son loves it and doesn't really care if it's the same table/frame/or not. We spray painted the table and hope it will work for a long while.

AWESOME TABLE!
Toys r us had a super deal where you buy the table and get the top free. With the price being so high, we feel we got a GREAT deal. My son loves this table. We got for him for his 2nd birthday. It was simple to put together and is so durable. Not like the other cheap pine/particle board tables you see. The graphics are so bright and my son is always pointing to the sides and saying choo choo. Great investment.

Expensive - but worth the money for it's durability
I umm and aahh about spending this sort of money on a train table for my children but after doing my homework I decided this is the one I would buy.

Other train tables I have seen in stores are often wonky and seem quite unstable - and this is after they've been played on in the stores. So after seeing poorer quality tables for similar prices I decided to save up for the Thomas branded one (also bought the one-sided play table board to go with it).

Yes, it's expensive, but as with all any "brand", it's the name you are paying for. If you want a Thomas collection of trains and accessories you are going to have to pay. I'm just starting our collection and am buying the "Thomas" trains and buildings, but found a compatible generic track for less than half the price. I was lucky enough to get this table at almost half price at a after Christmas sale. It's worth waiting for sales and price comparing.

Having said all that - we have found the table to be excellent. It's at the right height for all our children (4, 3 and 1 year old) and me when I'm sitting on the floor playing with them. There is also plenty of room underneath to have some good sized storage containers for all your pieces of train track and other accessories.

The table frame is packed very well to protect the 3D train faces that are on two sides of the table. It's beautifully painted and when it's put together is extremely strong (although I wouldn't recommend standing on it).

Now that we have this table I no longer have to nag the kids about getting their train tracks off the lounge room floor, they can leave their "town" up for days until they want to change it. We also have a great table for their other car/train sets, or Little People towns or Duplo Creations.

It's up to you to spend to decide if you want to spend this sort of money but I see this as something I won't ever have to replace and it's something my son can keep for his children. Toys like this will last! ... Read more

Just ok
We found the box easy to put together, but the part that controls the lid was too stronge for any child to get back down. We had to buy a new one. Can't tell about the durablity since we just bought it for our grandchild.

Great Gift
I purchased this toy box as a gift for a 2 year old. There were full instructions, and full parts, included in the box. There weren't any damaged pieces (and the outside box itself had been opened/sealed, reopened/sealed, several times, as is frequently the case when you buy things - not a big deal). I put the toy box together, with just two tools (phil. head, straight screwdrivers), in 1 hour exactly. Glue is included for extra holding power. The hinge is centered on the lid, as opposed to the picture on the web site where it is shown off to the side. The hinge was tricky, but once on it worked just fine. The lid stays slightly open, 1/2 inch or so, and you have to put weight on it to close it all the way - great for little fingers. I recommend if you can to try to pre-drill, or pre-screw in the screw holes on the hinge, because holding the hinge in place and screwing in at the same time was tricky. Great toy.

literate people will enjoy
We bought this box because it matched our decor. We were concerned about the two comments that it was difficult to put together and the issues with the hinge. We normally don't leave feedback but did not want this item to get overlooked (...). If you read the directions and follow them precisely it is a cinch to put together!!! Enjoy:)

Cute Toy Box!!!
I bought this toy box at the store. It did come with instructions, however it was not easy to put together. There was also a part missing, so I had to make an additional trip to the store. We had some trouble with the hinge, however, we managed to get it on. My one year old daughter will put her head in the toy box and pull the lid,it will drop slowly on her head. I am sure it is no not perfectly safe.
The toy box looks just great in our living room and we also have one in my daughter's bedroom. It really matches our decor. It is one of the best looking boxes I have seen!!! It is functional and big enough. My daughter enjoys pulling her toys from it.
Overall I am happy with the box, however it is difficult to put together.

Disappointed and Frustrated
I bought this toy box for my daughter and it came without instructions, which made it difficult to put together. Even so, I managed to figure it out. However, the safety hinge didn't work. The spring in the hinge literally had no give, therefore, the lid wouldn't close no matter what we did. The wood sounded as though it was going to snap. Since we didn't have instructions, my husband and I tried putting the spring on in every way possible. I had to return the toy box because there was clearly something severely wrong with the hinge. Needless to say, I was very disappointed and frustrated. ... Read more

What a Great Bed
I bought this bed because they didnt have the train toddler bed which i prefer. It was a nightmare to put together and if you dont do it right the screws do not seem long enough. It took me 6 tries to secure the screws. i had to smush it together and screw it in at the same time. It holds my weight jumping on it. so im completely satisfied with safety. my son loves the red light and he likes jumping on it. we are still adjusting to him having a bed. its not to big that it looks horrible in his room...
io can definitely see where you would have problems putting it together and not having long enough screws. You might need a drill to get the little decorations on the side to go on though.

I also had big problems with this bed's construction
Like the previous reviewer. I noted that the screws that were supplied to hold the frame of the bed together were not nearly long enough to secure it. In fact, they did not even penetrate the plastic, and when we lifted the side wall it completely fell apart. I wonder if there was an incorrect shipment. We even used a power drill. The bed is adorable, however, and I am hoping that with some new screws it can be made safe. If not, we will be returning it.

A mom
I think this is a great bed!! When my son was old enough to move into a toddler bed this was the best choise. He never complained about getting into his bed - now 2 years later he still loves it and as much as he did when we first got it. I dont know how I am going to get him to move into a bigger bed when the time is ready. This bed is VERY durable, and I have never had any problems. The light is perfect because if my son gets scared at night he turns the light on without getting out of bed. I reccomend this product to every parent who does not want to spend a lot of money, but wants their child to remember there first bed when they get older!

Not so safe
I purchased this bed last December as a Christmas present for my 2 year old son. He loves to play in it but still prefers to sleep in his crib. Yesterday while playing in it, the bed completely fell apart and when I attempted to put it back together I realized that the necessary screws that hold the bed together weren't even long enough to attach the bed properly. I am extremely disappointed in this product and I have e-mailed Step2 and am waiting for a response. Parents be careful, and make sure if you do already own this bed that everything fits correctly. I thought my bed did, luckily my son was unharmed.

Great bed!!!
My son absolutely adores this bed, especially the little red light on top! We initially had problems with the light going through too many batteries, but I e-mailed the company (Step2) and they immediately sent me a new one at no charge, no questions asked. This is a great little bed. Safe, durable, cute - I really recommend it. My little boy is pretty spirited, and I have all the confidence in the world that this bed can handle anything he can dish out! ... Read more

Get ready to learn shapes, colors, numbers, letters, face parts, animal sounds, and more with Elmo, Big Bird, Cookie Monster, and the rest of the Sesame Street gang! This Sing & Teach Table features tons of buttons and other interactive gadgets that prompt fun lessons for babies and toddlers, all in the wacky, weird voices of the Muppets. (Presumably, tots are familiar enough with the characters to understand all the squeals and growls.) The semi-circular shaped plastic table stands 12 inches high, not counting the waggling Elmo head that presides over the action. Children sit or stand at the table, lifting the Cookie Monster head to learn about "open" and "closed," spinning a drum for the alphabet song, or picking up a cell phone to hear The Count soliloquize about numbers. Bright, cheerful, and noisy--just what the toddler ordered! --Emilie Coulter ... Read more

Excellent Purchase
My daughter is still a little young for this set but she is very interested in it. It was very easy to put together. I think it only took 30 minutes. This is a very beautiful and a very solid set. Over all I think this is well worth the price even with the shipping costs.

Good Solid Construction - Very Cute
My 20 month old daughter loves this set. She can get herself on and off the chairs without falling. The chairs are of strong enough construction that anyone can join her for a tea party and safely sit on the solid chairs. My only problem with this set is that I have not found a way to obtain additional chairs. We would love to have 4 chairs instead of just 2.

LOVED IT!!!
We just got this table set for our 20month old daughter and she loves it, she eats on this table, she loves just to sit when kids come over.
The only problem we had with this table set was with one of the chairs but other than that everything was very good & easy to set up & you can tell the wood is very good. This was her x-mas present.

Great finishing touch for baby's room
This table and chair set is the perfect compliment to the Sunshine nursery items. Very easy and quick to assemble, it took me less than 30 minutes! Very sturdy, my daughter loves it! Even though we already had a table set for her room, I purchased this as soon as it became available to truly "complete" her room. The other set is now in the dining room. It's a little pricey but is very well made and all in all well worth the money. Hopefully more items will be available soon in this line, because we love it for our little girl! ... Read more

Editorial Review

Your child will love climbing into this Roadster Toddler Bed with its sleek styling and authentic wheel and hubcap details, downshifting into "low" gear, and gently cruising into a long night of restful sleep. Made of sturdy, double-wall plastic, the bed frame is modeled after the body of a sports car and is sized for a standard crib mattress that can be mounted on a mattress support or a sheet of pre-cut plywood (not included). Adult assembly requires pliers and slotted and Phillips head screwdrivers. Measures 68 inches by 40.5 and 20 inches. Assembly instructions included.--Chris Burns ... Read more

Durable enough for "hand-me-downs", also comes in 2 sizes!
We just bought a 2nd-hand Roadster Toddler Bed from a family who owned it for 5 years and it STILL looks brand new! Little Tikes makes very durable toys and furniture that allow "hand-me-downs" to last. I also like the fact that LT makes this Roadster bed in two sizes: toddler bed size and standard twin size. If your little guy is so attached to his toddler bed now, there can be less fuss when he outgrows it...just move up to the next size! The only negative thing about the toddler bed is that there is no mattress support included with the bed (new or used beds). Springs or coils are usually built into the crib mattress so there is no separate box spring to use. You have to buy separate slats or plywood to hold the mattress up.

My son and I loooooove this bed.
We purchased this bed for my son a few months ago, we have another baby on the way and this bed looked fun and durable. We had no trouble putting it together, then we bought plywood for the bottom support, works great. My son loves it and it seems really comfy to him (17 months old now). We are expecting another boy so I think when he gets old enough for the toddler bed, we will get our first son the twin size one. I love little tykes products and will continue to purchase them, they always are great quality.

Found a snug mattress
I am currently living in Australia and it was time for our boy to have a new bed. We were about to purchase a new bed from the USA and have it shipped, but where my husband works someone was selling one as their child had grown out of it. We bought it, it was in GREAT condition and brought it home. It had a mattress in it that was purchased with the bed from the USA and it didn't fit very snug, so we pulled out his Australian crib bed mattress and it fits perfect, absolutely no room on the sides, and a cm or two down the bottom. You have to pull the mattress up to put the fitted sheet on, like you do with most small beds, but it fits so much better than the toddler mattresses back home in the USA.

HOW CUUUTE!!!!!!
WELL I NEEDED A BED FOR MY ONE YEAR OLD SON.IT WAS SO HARD FOR ME TO PICK THE PERFECT BED FOR MY SON.AT FIRST I WAS GOING TO BUY HIM A TWIN SIZE BED.EVERYONE WOULD TELL ME HOW IF I BUY HIM A TODDLER BED HE'D GROW OUT OF IT SO QUICK, THEN I REMEMBERED MY LITTLE BROTHER HAD THE EXACT SAME BED WHEN HE WAS SMALL AND IT LASTED HIM FOR ABOUT FIVE YEARS.WHY SHOULD I NOT GET MY SON A COOL BED FOR HIM RIGHT NOW AND LATER ON BUY HIM A NICE TWIN SIZE BED THAT WILL SUIT HIS AGE GROUP?FINALLY I STOPPED LISTENING TO EVERYONE AND DECIDED TO BUY IT. IT'S GREAT.HE LOOKS SO CUTE IN IT.HE LOVES TO CLIMB UP ON IT, HUG HIS BLANKY, AND GO TO SLEEP.WE THEN GOT A BUNKIE BOARD FOR THE SUPPORT(THAT WAS OUR ONLY DOWNSIDE).OTHER THAN THAT IT IS A GREAT BED TO PURCHASE YOUR LITTLE ANGEL.

happy with car bed
We purchased this bed for our 16 month old. He loves it! I want to thank the reviewer who recommended the "bunkie board." I was nervous about purchasing this item when I read the other reviews about the problems with the space around the matress and using cardboard as support. The description of this bed should bodly state thst it doesn't come with a support and recommend the "bunkie board" (it was $14.95- I bought it through kidrus.com. I want to thank other reviewrs for pointing out this problem, and I want to thank the reviewer who wrote about the "bunkie board." Both made our purchase very easy, and our son is enjoying his new bed! ... Read more

Meager value
I bought this bed...and had to call in reinforcements to help me put it together. It was very difficult to assemble, the pieces did not fit together well. My daughter has been using this bed for about a year now and it is beginning to splinter (she is only 3 years old). It will hold up for a couple of more years by what I can tell of it, but I wouldn't highly recommend this bed for someone who intends to reuse it for more than on child.

Can't put it together
I made the mistake of taking apart my daughter's crib before putting this toddler bed together. Big mistake!! The bed came with the missing pieces and could not be assembled. I could not get in touch with the company because it was a Saturday. So my daughter has been sleeping on her mattress on the floor!! ... Don't waste your time!

A GOOD BUY ...
This bed was a good buy for our 3 year old! She loved getting into her big girl bed! Although it's getting smaller, and soon we'll have to get a twin size bed. But this is in excellent condition and was very easy to assemble. As for the weight limit, it can handle my 190 lb. husband sitting on the bed with my daughter!

Damage boxes, dent, cracks you name it
This is the first time we ever order furniture from Amazon, boy am I sorry!!, The quality of the bed is so so, the bars & rails are alot skinnier than I though, the paint were not even, the legs are rather skinny.we didnt expect much quality for this price but this is lower than we imagin. The boxes looked damage, previoulsly opened & taped, the heaboard has several dents & paints chip off, the worse part is the legs of heaboard is completly split from bottom....we are waiting for a replacemnt now, if the new one is still like this, I am asking for my refund,,,& never buy any furniture from them.. ...

excellent quality great size
this is an excellent table and chair set, much bigger than most, especially the little tikes, an 8 yr old can easily fit at it with no problems.

Looks nice but doesn't wear nice.
We received this table set for Christmas and returned it 2 days later. The table itself is very nice and I like the white, but it scuffs very easily. Just from my kids sitting on it with jeans scuffed up the chairs.
We have it in our kitchen and that's why we liked the style. We did't want that big bulky plastic stuff in our kitchen, so we exchanged it for the Windsor set. Much, much nicer!!!
Also, one of the legs broke while puting it together. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Drawing, coloring, and painting are just a few of the many activities your toddler or young child can enjoy at this simple table and chair set. Featuring a natural wood finish that would fit in well with a wide variety of nursery and playroom themes and color schemes, the set comes complete with a simple wooden table and two matching chairs. The table measures just over 19 inches high, the square tabletop measures approximately 23.25 inches along each side, and the two chairs have seats that measure approximately 12 inches high.--Chris Burns ...

Mom of 4
I bought this for my then 9 month old son. We have four children, the last which came 8 years after we thought we were "finished". With that in mind, we didn't want to invest a lot of money in "kid" furniture because it wasn't going to get handed down to anyone, but we did want some thing that was going to be sturdy and safe for a little one. This storage center is perfect. It has the durability of Little Tikes that we have trusted for 14 years now and it has a nice furniture look to it so that our sons room isn't made entirely of plastic. He can pull himself up on it safely and easily access the drawers where his books and toys are kept. Keep in mind he is still only a week shy of 11 months. I think it is a great product. I think the prior negative review must have been a fluke. It obviously is suppose to come with the assembly hardware and hopefully their problem got resolved. Little Tikes has always been a great company for our family and my only complaint is the discontinuation of items that we thought were fantastic!!!

Very Sturdy
I have a 15 month old son and a baby on the way (due in a couple of months). We needed to get a peice of toy storage for my son, but I wanted it to be very sturdy, meaning the furniture tipping factor. This peice is very very sturdy, I can sit ontop of it and it won't break! First let me caution everyone that the screws they do easily strip as one reveiwer previously said, and if you have a large electric screwdriver, either get a smaller one or get a smaller manual one as some of the screws will be hard to put in otherwise. This is the only reason why I gave this peice 4 stars. Putting that all aside, it is easy for him to reach everything, and it looks very nice in his bedroom which I love. It took me probably about 1 hour to put together and remove all the left over garbage from the area. Once the baby moves from our bedroom to her own room down the road, I plan on buying another one of these for our soon to be make shift play area in our extended living room!

Solid construction and great design
I really like this piece of furniture. It is a great size for kids and the design is complementary with most. I had some problems putting it together, but the instructions seemed clear. The screws were easily stripped, so don't give it too much torque. The wood was in good condition and very solid. I did need a second pair of hands on occasion to get the screws in solidly as some of the locations of the screws were a bit awkward. I definitely recommend, but for those of us less "crafty", make sure you have some help available

Excellent piece of furniture....
I order this for my one year old and it is perfect. It took a very little time to put together and was a very sturdy storage shelf. I don't have to worry about it tipping over. The storage bins are very sturdy not flimsy like some. Overall it is pricey but I feel well worth the money.

GREAT PRODUCT FROM LITTLE TYKES!!!
We have been faithful buyers of everything Little Tykes since our first child was born, over 8 years ago. I was SO excited to see that they had come out with wood furniture and thought we would give it a try! We are THRILLED with the quality of this product! It went together easily and it looks great!! My husband is putting the matching toy box together as I type this, and I am sure it will be equally as nice!! I hope that Little Tykes continues to expand their line of wod furniture...I will continue to buy it!! ... Read more
