Excellent buy

We bought this for our rough and tough nephew that loves to be like his daddy. My husband and I put this together in about half an hour with our two year old crawling all over us and the work bench. It is very sturdy and instructions made it easy to assemble. It came with a lot of pieces to play with. My two year old daughter loved playing with it as we put it together. The wood isn't real cheap and smooth so no splinters. My only complaint is the vice as it is a little difficult to operate but still works.
Pros: Durable, Easy Assembly, Entertaining, Fun, Interactive
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love the workbench, but need moe pieces!

My girls love this workbench! Hours and hours are spend everyday opening the "shop" and filling "customer orders". It's a big deal every night when the workshop has to close and the girls have the responsibility to tell the "customers" that they can't work anymore today, that the shop will have to close for the night. Love, love, love this toy!

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.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Bought this for our son for Christmas. It is 12:13pm on Christmas Eve and we go to put it together and there are zero instructions, zero booklet, zero organization and no clue what items we are missing. Beyond disappointed in this brand since I was under the impression their items were quality items. Now our sons Santa gift is completely ruined.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The neighbors come to build, too!
on June 13, 2010
Posted by: mommy

My 6 yr old son got this for Christmas, LOVED putting it together (with parental help), took off flying with the booklet of models to make with the wooden pieces, bolts, screws, etc., and quickly began making designs of his own. His twin sister and our neighbors' children all love playing with this, too. The boys have been making everything in the project book, and some unidentified objects as well. The girls have loved this , too, but have wished that there were also project designs to make baby crib, stroller, high chair kinds of things . I'm not sure the designers anticipated this sort of interest from the girls, but it really is a big hit with mine and my neighbors'. I encountered one problem; the wooden screw on the front-mounted vice grip splintered out and broke from the repeated torque. The company cheerfully replaced the whole section quickly and at no cost. I did suggest a redesign of that particular screw of a more durable material able to stand up to the repeated twisting and pressure.I also suggested that they begin to offer supplemental design books and sets of extra building pieces. All things considered, I love this, would give it as a gift or buy is all over again.
I would recommend this to a friend!
