We got this one year ago for my girls' birthdays - it was a gift, and they were 1 & 3 at the time. They love this table, and so do I. It's very durable, my kids bang on it all the time, and several of their friends have actually climbed on top of the table - although I wouldn't recommend that, I'm just posting it so others can understand how strong and well-made this train table is - it can hold a few 2yo's on it! I didn't have any of the problems another reviewer did with a warped top or the box/packaging breaking. I would highly recommend this - train tables are pricey, and this one is a good buy. We even went and purchased the trundle drawers to go under it. They're great - they hold a ton of stuff. My kids don't have a lot of train stuff, but they do love this table for their fisher price Little people toys, as well as their dollhouse, and other little toys.

I am going to cut-and-paste the email that I sent the customer service department of this company about 20 minutes ago, after putting this table together: "I'm very disappointed to say the least (actually, infuriated is a more apt description). We were given this train table as a gift by my mother-in-law, and the way it was packaged allowed one end to split open, the styrofoam inside to break, and for the pieces of the table to shift around while I was trying to move it. Fortunately, none of the wood was scratched. However, when I finally did open it, styrofoam "snow" flew all over the room (which continued the feelings of annoyance). And then I discovered that one of the brackets on the end piece was bent. I tried to tighten it with a philips screwdriver but didn't go very far because I was afraid of stripping the grooves in the hole. So I left it, and the table is pretty wobbly. And on top of that, the board is warped! It won't lie flat. Now, maybe that is a common problem that rights itself after a while of lying flat, but if so, there should be a note on the instructions or somewhere to that effect. If not, then, needless to repeat, this is an infuriating product." I hope this helps people decide on this type of product

This is an awesome toy for any train enthusiast. Very easy to assemble, large play area, great trundle drawers to go with it too. Be careful on how it is shipped because ours came damaged, but it has held up to hours of abuse since then.
