Nicest one out right now
"I researched tool benches for toddlers extensively. We have a 4 year old granddaughter who likes to build things. This one is the best one out there that I could find. It is cute and easy to put together. Here is my wish list items that it doesn't have: 1) I wish it had anything that lit up and had sounds when the power button was pressed. 2) Half of the bench does not have real holes to screw into. There are only three and the back of the bench where the tools are held. 3) A different bench comes with a birdhouse that you can "paint" with water that turns colors. I wish it came with this one too or you could buy it separately. 4) I wish it was larger. It is small in size in comparison to the other Step 2 items we have bought. (Half the size of the kitchen set we bought. )"

Not a fan !
"Honestly we are pretty disappointed in this tool bench and we did a lot of research! It doesn’t do much at all. You can’t actually drill or hammer the pieces in and if you do they usually get stuck. The things you can build are for much older kids definitely not a 2. 5 year old. Unfortunately, we might be reselling this because it is just taking up room and making a mess. Definitely, not the product we thought."

My little boy loves this!
"We gave this to our 22 month old son as an early Christmas present and he is in love with it! We’ve played for hours pretending to saw the wood in half, drill holes in the wood pieces, hammer pieces together, use the working handheld drill to screw pieces together/to the bench, he even loves to pretend to wash his hands in the sink! The list goes on. Step 2 is a great company with the child in mind."

Provides tons of entertainment
"We feel this work station provides hours of enjoyment that include creativity, imagination, organization, decision making, and fun. Our 3-1/2 year old son loves the variety of tools and to fit the pieces of wood together to create things. He and I assembled a bird house and a police car, but could have used two larger circles for wheels. Needless to say he was happy with how his project turned out."

Love this product!
"This was my almost 2 year old son’s main Christmas gift and he loves it even more than I knew he would! He’s obsessed with tools so the real motions and sounds of this toy are perfect for him!"

My mom brought this for
"My mom brought this for my nephew birthday. He loves it and plays with it every day. My mother is thrilled with it and is very happy with Step 2. My mom even brought step 2 for us when we were kids. She loves the quality of your toys and toy boxes."

Missing Faux Wood Pieces
"We didn’t have all the faux wood pieces the listing represented. After contacting support and being sent more- we are still missing many pieces as they’ve sent ones we already had."

We like that the quality
"We like that the quality of this work bench. The kids are having fun with it. We wish it came with all of the foam pieces for all of the projects shown. We were only able to build two complete projects and then have several random pieces for other projects such as the bird house. We would be fine with only getting the pieces for say 3 projects but getting random pieces for many incomplete projects is frustrating and makes no sense. We would also like better pictures of the projects than the small sticker on one of the bins. The directions are fairly easy to follow but the numbers steps skip about 5 numbers in the middle which is confusing. We spent quite a bit of time looking for a missing page to only realize that the steps are all there and to just ignore the error in the numbering. Wouldnt be very hard to fix these few flaws. All in all I am glad we chose thos work bench over others. I feel like the people that oversee the directions and the reviews don't speak English or this stuff would have been remedied after the first few reviews that mention the errors in the assembly directions."

The actual toy is great
"The actual toy is great but our grandsons birthday box it was shipped in was mangled, ripped, and taped over"

The drill stopped working within
"The drill stopped working within the first 10 minutes. Should have nuts to drill into the boards. Grandson does play with it but shows most interest in using the drill which unfortunately stopped working."
