Pleased Mom of Two!

This sandbox is GREAT! I have a four-year-old and a two-year-old, and they both have fun with this nearly every day for hours. I let them bring out some of their favorite things into the sandbox -- cars, dinosaurs, digging toys, and plastic bugs --- and they come up with so many imaginary stories and games. My oldest took her tea set into the sandbox to play restaurant with the table. Someone mentioned that the umbrella blew away quite a bit; we have had some very windy days, but it hasn't blown away -- it seems like they may have improved the fit of the umbrella into the table part because it fits rather 'tight.' The lid has also been doing a great job at keeping out the rain. I notice there are four holes made for bungee cords to keep the lid down tighter if you want.

Overall, this is the best sandbox I have ever seen, and I am well pleased.

Love it!

It is a good product. It is made in the USA, too. I bought it for less though directly from amazon. Then I had to find safe sand on the market
(it wasn't cheap). So generally we are happy with the product. I consider it to be a good investment into good fun time. I decided I would rather buy less all kinds of plastic toys to justify this expense.

Can't go wrong with Step 2 Products!

Sole owner/operator of small Family Day Care, toys take a beating from the children. Step 2 stands behind their products and they are truly durable and worth the money. As for educational value for my preschoolers, this product teaches them a life lesson, social skills (communication & sharing), pre-math skills (i.e. measuring) and problem solving (how do we get this much sand into this tube), and home economics (the use of kitchen utensils) plus small motor skills (use of spoons, sifters, cups) all this is acquired knowledge, available for the children to learn just be 'playing' with this large Step 2 Summertime Play Center! Now, don't you agree the price is worth it? Thank you Step 2.

Great sandbox

My 20 month old daughter loves this sandbox - asks to play in it every day. The lid is great; it can hold the sand and toys sitting on top. The umbrella is a nice touch to keep out of the direct sun; but I have yet to see my daughter use the table! Who ever noted that eating lunch after playing in the sand was a bad idea was right - the toys usually end up on the table. No different than the beach though (being careful w/sand and food)! Overall - a great purchase; and I don't regret having the table part of it.

This is a great porduct. My 18 month old son loves it. I find it to be durable and we have not had any problems with the lid. The umbrella is also a great feature. He loves to have a snack and sit at the picnic table
