Great- IF on any surface other than grass...Oct 23, 2009
By Memphis Mom
We bought this when my son was 18 months, he's almost 6 now. It is a great product that he got a lot of use out of when he was smaller. After a couple of years of stomping on the lid it began to not keep the water out, and that's pretty much when we stopped using it.
Here's the pros:
> HUGE sandbox part- will hold a lot of sand and a lot of little kids. 2 older kids would still fit just fine.
> Very durable (except for the umbrella). We just replaced it with a standard beach umbrella. However, keep the kiddos and dogs from traipsing all over the lid or it might stop keeping it dry after a couple of years like ours did.
> Table is a great size.
> Sold it after 4 years of use at a yard sale and got $35 for it. These things will last forever just about.
Cons:
> If you put it in the grass you are in for a real pain in the rear keeping the grass from under it. We live in the south, and have a LOT of spiders. LOT of spiders. The black widow is a particularly bad problem on our property, and the underside of this picnic table is a perfect condo for them. Add the grass there and it is a nightmare. The weed whacker won't fit underneath, so you have to trim the grass under the table and seat with scissors or gardening shears. Spiders,and my hands do not make a happy combination. It got to be a real pain, so we just stopped using the table part because it was always full of sand and dirt anyway.
> The sandbox did start to collect water after a couple of years. It got really really nasty as the water has no way to drain out. Even after drilling a few holes in the plastic to allow water to escape it was not much better. Keep a good watch on how your lid is fitting. If I had contacted Step 2 at the first sign of trouble they might have been able to help me.
> If you don't have the umbrella in the hole, kids are going to fill it with sand. THere is a stopper in there that prevents the umbrella from going down too far (or at least there was in my model) which also prevents the sand from going through. Now you have a problem with not being able to use your umbrella.
Hope this helps!

 Fantastic Sandbox/Picnic Table CondoMay 23, 2009
By Jenifer Barnum
"sunflowergoddessb"
This was the best outdoor purchase we've made. Our 16 month old LOVES this, and it definitely fits up to 4 kids at a time. The picnic table is a great feature, although it's mostly used for pouring sand onto. I bought a small broom to sweep it off and leave in the sandbox. Umbrella feature is fantastic as well. To keep it on during those windy days, I purchased some clear flexible tubing from plumbing dept, and cut the tube and placed it around the umbrella tube, right where it sits against the top of the table :) Works perfect to keep it in place.

great productMar 05, 2009
By C. Harger
"courtney"
This was a perfect toy for my baby. It is big and can fit multiple kids, the picnic table is so cute and the umbrella included is good quality and large enough to cover bench and table and party the sandox. I highly recommend this sandbox. The only thing is the lid is just a lid it isnt very secure, on a windy day it may blow off. but that hasnt happened yet.

Great sandbox set for a 2-year-oldJun 21, 2009
By Nunn
My daughter loves the sandbox. The connected table works perfectly for serving "tea" or just sitting on for snack. We had no problems with assembly or durability. I would recommend this sandbox set over any others.

Using as a poolJun 20, 2010
By Alyse
I have been using this as a pool for 3 years. There is a stopper in the bottom, so that water doesn't leak out. I love that the umbrella keeps my fair-skinned kids from burning while playing in the water, and the water is the perfect depth for both my 1 year old and my 4 year old. I have been able to keep the cover on, in even the stormiest weather, but using bungee cords. I've been amazed that this has survived 4 seasons of winter strorms and salty air year long. It's still going strong, and I'm sure you younger son will have many fun summer days planying in his pool. I do have to buy a new umbrella this year, but it's cheaper than the additional sunscreen that I would need to keep my kids from burning while in the water! You won't regret this purchase!
