I recommend this workbench for every toddler!
My 3 yo grandson loves his workbench. He has already learned to use the hammer very accurately. He can do projects by himself or with an adult, it is a wonderful gift!

Very sad
Within the first hour two pieces are already broken, so very disappointing. My poor son was crying because his birthday present was already broken. This is really unexceptable.

    It was worth it
    Work bench is great. Just don't tighten the screws until the entire table is assembled. The only issue is the wooden nuts and bolts. Those pieces work better on some days and then other days they are too loose. Being they are wood they expand and contract with the weather and wooden threads break easily. Would buy again.

    Great workbench! Ignore reviews complaining about assembly
    This is an adorable little work bench and was simple to assemble with clear instructions. Reviewers complaining about assembly must not know the rule to never fully tighten screws until you are all done. Yes, you may need to adjust the legs a bit when adding other supports, but that is normal and to be expected. It took me about 30 minutes to fully assemble (though I did use an impact driver instead of the tiny included allen wrenches). I highly recommend this toy, my son is going to love this when we give it to him on his birthday. Excellent quality, sturdy and will last a long time.

    Wood bench parts
    Brought this wooden project bench for my daughter birthday. You better be mechanical inclined to build this cause you will be taking apart pieces and trying to fix it in the right direction. Will not line up correctly. Some wooden pieces the hole is off. You will have to re drill new holes. Building the models the wooden parts will spin and not get tight. I will be a challenge if you are up for it. But other than those problems,the bench is very strong.

    Great work table bad screws and boards
    This is such a great toy I wish the pieces to build would last longer. The threading of the screws wear off and the blocks threading wear out so we only really got to build for a week before the items built fell apart. Wondering if there's an work table hack to repurpose it.

    My granddaughter loves her workbench!
    Purchased for my 4 yo granddaughter. She asked for a work bench from Santa. She loves it. Her father, my son, put it together. Comes with instructions to put together and a model instruction book that shows how to construct 6 different models. Great quality workmanship and beach can be used as a desk for other projects. Time will tell

    I would wholeheartedly recommend this product
    I can't tell you how impressed I am by the quality of this toy. The materials used in the workbench are excellent. I was able to put it together solo - only having to reverse the order of a couple of the instruction steps. The result was a sturdy miniature workbench I would describe as almost furniture quality! I bought this for my grandson's third birthday as he has recently shown interest in take apart toys using screwdriver, wrench and drill. I was, therefore, focused on obtaining a good bench, regardless of the peripherals. Although the gift has not yet been delivered, I don't doubt that I have achieved my objective. However, I couldn't resist putting together one of the models. I found it easy enough to put together using just finger power. I suspect utilizing the provided tools would complicate matters and I'm quite sure our soon-to-be-three-year-old would need lots of assistance to tackle the projects for some considerable time to come. Nevertheless, contrary to some reviews I have read, the parts were well made and substantial. I did not attempt to use the tools as they were tissue wrapped and I left them so - but the vice worked perfectly. Everything arrived well packaged, with parts well identified and with excellent instructions both for the adult to construct the workbench and for children to construct the projects.

    Broken piece already is disappointing
    The concept is good and my son has enjoyed it since receiving it from his grandparents on Christmas but one month later and a major piece is already broken. He built the cowboy and it fell off of the workbench cracking one of the two green legs... which means that he can't build anything else in the booklet. So, overall, I can't say that I would recommend this bench to others because my son didn't do anything too rough and yet it broke.

    Screws come apart easily, making builds near impossible
    My son loved this toy when he first received it, and still does, but we've had to attempt to piece together the screws multiple times. The threading comes off the head of the screw really easily, and we've tried super glue and got glue to no avail. Only two are left :-/.
