I purchased this table for my 4 year old and 18 month old to use for arts/crafts/coloring and snacks/meals. I searched SPECIFICALLY for this table because my siblings and I had one as children and it held up wonderfully. It definitely seemed like it would be better than the folding chairs & table sets I saw in stores. The kids love it. My 18 month old has trouble getting/staying on the chairs, but that's because of her age and nothing to do with the product. The material is durable but lightweight so the kids can easily move it. It was easy to put together, easy to clean, and works well in our kitchen. Looking forward to using this for years!
