We gave this to our twins for their second birthday and it is played with for hours at a time. It is the first toy that they do that with. We had it out at their party and kids from 18 mths - 7 were enjoying it for hours.
The only negative was the assembly. It isn't as easy nor does it seem as durable of construction as we would have hoped, but for the price I guess that is what you expect. I didn't like having to drill screws into plastic where there wasn't a marking or whole. Make sure you have an electric drill.
Bottom line, it is a good toy for what you pay. It has been a month and it has held up well.

train would not stay on tracks
from Tacoma, WA on 8/16/2008
We put this together yesterday on my son's third birthday. He absolutely LOVES this toy! When he woke up this morning, the first words out of his mouth were "I gotta go play with my train"! The train engine is strong enough to push his matchbox cars around the track, and he gets a big kick out of that. I have no problems with the train station and bridge popping out of place like I saw in other reviews of this toy. The only cons are that the forklift that came with the train is too wide to fit on the track, if it was narrower the engine could push it along. Also, the lid that came with the table was cracked and would probably be too much trouble to ship back and get a new one. I also thought it would be plastic and it is pressboard. Overall, I am very pleased with this toy.

I bought this for my son's third birthday and he absolutly loves it. He plays with it every day and I actually keeps his attention for a long time.

Initially, kids had trouble keeping train on track but they do love this set. Play with it every chance they get.

The train is fun to watch, but has dificulty making it around the track without help. It gets stuckin several spots along the way.

Half my child's room furniture and toys were puchased at Step2, so it was no surprise when my niece turned five last month I went straight to Step2 website. I have had my eye on that train set since Christmas but didn't think my niece had any room for it. I took the chance and bought it for her birthday anyway. I am so glad I did everyday she spend atleast 30 minutes playing with it. My daughter also plays with it everyday. She adds other small toys, her little ponies rides the trains and she also adds different trains from other train sets. It is an added touch to have the cover for arts and crafts but honestly it is rarely used in my house.

My daughter loves this train table. We love that it has built in tracks so we do not have to reset them for her to play.
It was pretty easy to put together (the hardest part was the stickers) and my kids love it, the only thing I wish is that it came with some extra vehicles, but its a great toy.
from shohola PA on 3/18/2008
This is a good buy for a train table. Because it has a lid it becomes a 2 in 1 toy (always nice) and has room under to store more toys. It is very light waight so my toddlers can push it around. I don't know if thats good or bad. I also cought one of them sitting inside the table so I know it will hold at least 40 lbs. Some of the accesories are cheap but if you want real strong pieces you have to buy wood.Over all we are pleased and my kids love it and after all that is why I bought it. I love step 2 products we have a ton of them and always come back for more.

The train is a ittle fast for a three year old.I have two three year old girls who will play with this toy., so far they both like it very much
from Salem, Oregon on 2/19/2008
My son is 5, we got this for his birthday. He has loved trains since he was 2 and this just seemed to be something he'd use with all the different trains he now has. It came with a train that he thinks is almost as good as his Thomas trains but now quite. LOL
The only problem we have with it is that the switch on the station piece fell apart the first day, we could put it together a few times but then one little piece of plastic broke off and it now won't work. However, my son doesn't care all that much about it so we are going to just leave it be.

The train table is being used in a learning environment for toddlers and pre-schoolers. There is plenty of play area on and around the train table. It also can be closed when play time is over and the table top can be used for other activities.
from Virginia Beach, VA on 2/15/2008
The only real issues we have are that the bridge comes off a lot. It doesn't really snap into place and stay there like it should. The station piece also frequently comes undone.
from Portland, OR on 1/23/2008
This is a great concept. We love that there is no track. The bridge and Station don't sit well but work fine. Our's didn't come with the lid, that would have been really nice! The gears in the train strip easily and now it won't pull both cars. Bridge broke early on, and we have had it only two months. Glad I got it on sale!
from Tomball, Texas on 1/9/2008
My son is two and can't get enough of play time with the train table. I like how it does not actually have a track to where he has to line the wheels of the train to the track to make it go. You just place the train in the molded track portion and hit the button. The log dispenser and the stop/go funtion is also very easy for my son to use. It's a great investment!
from walden,ny on 1/6/2008
Simple design ,removable parts are sturdy and very easy to take off for activity table play. Everything fits inside. EASY sticker placement!!!Was worried it would take up too much space in our small livingroom/playroom but was pleasantly surprised.
Once we learned where the battery went in the engine it made it a lot nicer. We didn't receive the top that comes with it, that would of been nice. The bridge broke right away and the station and bridge don't sit to well. My grandson enjoys it and that's what's important.
from Rockwood, PA on 1/3/2008
My four-year-old daughter plays with this train table every day. She's too busy to play with most toys, but this one she likes. She uses the train that came with it, plus the Thomas Takealongs and her cars. We hope her 3-month-old brother will enjoy it next year too.
from Flushing, MI on 1/3/2008
Our girls (3 and 5) love this train table. They play with it every day. They love to show their friends the train when we have play dates..

Our two year old little girl wants to play with the train table at the book store all the time. We bought her this for Chritmas...OMG she loves it. She also loves to make puzzles and work with art supplies and playdoh so the table's size worked out terrific for us. We put her other table and chairs in another room as it was too small to do any of those things. The only thing I would change is adding some things that make sounds or light up. That would put her over the moon!!! She loves it and so do her play-date kids.

Our grandson who is 3 enjoys this toy - he likes to play with train and lays on it when the lid is on.
from Massillon, Ohio on 12/30/2007
The train table is just the right size and height for little ones. He stays at the table for long minutes at a time--an accomplishment for this active boy.
from Kansas on 12/28/2007
I love the molded track and having the lid is a plus.
from MN on 12/27/2007
It was a Christmas gift and he was thrilled! Couldn't ask for better! Thanks for a great product!
from Manitou beach, Mi on 12/26/2007
We got this for our 21 month old and he loves it. See saw it when he woke up and did not want to open anything else he was to busy playing with it. It is the perfect height for him and very light weight to move easily.
from Northern New Jersey, USA on 12/26/2007
I have a 2 yr old son and a 5 yr old daughter and this table is an absolute hit. My 2 yr old is a HUGE train lover. This table comes with a battery operated train and it is easy enough for my 2 yr old to turn on and off. No removable tracks is a big plus - I dont have to keep picking up and rebuilding. Only drawback is the bridge and station snaps off easily and you can not put the lid on with these things attached. Otherwise, this table is very entertaining - glad I picked this one!
from Maine on 12/26/2007
We liked the idea of the tracks being attatched, however the bridge and station remove very easily, and have not been where they should be since we set it up. It seems like it will be durable and stand up to 2 boys under 3 years old which is nice. I understand that things have to move to put the cover on, it's just kind of a pain to put that stuff back on all the time. But overall I think it will be nice and they will both enjoy it.
from Southaven, MS on 12/26/2007
We have the train table in our family room, and the kids play with it all the time.
from Cypress, Tx (outside of Houston) on 12/25/2007
I didn't "get it"! The bridge and log-loading station really are poor quality plastic-I'm nervous about my 3 yr old breaking them! I thought the other parents might just be too picky...nope! My son did play with it for an hour, but no one could play with him, due to small size. The extra pieces (trees, signs, etc) as well as the train itself are also poor quality plastic. I hope they won't be broken before the New Year is here!! I really did expect more from Step2. I trusted their name to represent high quality. What a disappointment.
from Solon, OH on 12/20/2007
My son really seems to like the table. It is not easy to put together b/c there are no holes only divets. The train station and bridge do not stay on.

My kids (2.5 - 7) love it! Particularly my 2.5 year old - he uses the train, although it falls apart on him sometimes (the "tops" snap on the bottoms of the cars, but snap off fairly easily), but also hot wheels cars. The building and bridge don't exactly snap tight into the table, so it just seems a little cheap, I guess. Just not quite the quality I was hoping for.

from pine bush,ny on 12/5/2007
bridge is very cheap , my son broke the bridge within a 1/2 hr of play.
Works good with Thomas the train toys.
Overall it is a good buy,if you have the room.
Beware of small parts................

from Port Hope, MI on 11/29/2007
The kids have an absolute ball with it. The only fallback I've found is the bridge and station don't seat in there very well and the kids are always getting frustrated with them "popping" out.
from Birmingham, AL on 11/14/2007
I really like this product because both of my kids can play with it. The only thing I don't like is that you have to remove the bridge and house to put the lid on. I looked at the newer model but it seemed a bit too old for my kids and didn't include the moving train.
from delaware on 11/12/2007
We use it for play and the table for crafts. Would use it for eating at if the legs were higher so the chairs would fit.

My 2.5 yr old son loves this train table. It's the perfect height for him and is durable enough for rough play.
THis Product I loved At FIRST UNTIL the children torn off the connecting plastic roads. They say this is all one peice it IS NOT> I ended up throwing it away VERY disappointed in PRoduct

2 year old Joe loves the train table I gave him for his birthday. He plays with it every day either with the trains or the cars. Today he used the lid as a slide for himself but that's probably not a good idea. He'll probably lose interest by next summer because the track is molded so it can't be reconfigured and nothing can be added; but until then we have a lot of bad weather to get through and this seems to keep him entertained at a reasonable price and other children will enjoy it when he's through with it.
