 For a 3-year-old boy October 7, 2009
N. Bonds (Mission Viejo, California)
I bought this for my grandson's 3rd birthday. We received it promptly and in good condition. With a history of carrying around a small tool box, this workshop seemed ideal. He was very interested in playing with each of the tools included, but his 5-year-old sister was the one who wanted to put the pieces together with the screws and screw driver to make something. He will need some mommy- or daddy-and-me time to get the idea. The good thing is that it should interest him for quite some time as he is able to do more. The tight fitting drawer was annoying. He could close it, but not open it, so it will probably not be used to store the tools. All in all, I think it was a good toy for his age and older.
 Great toy, but Step2 needs to sell foam parts separately. April 25, 2009
Sven Johnson (Oceanside, CA USA)
I bought this on sale from Step 2 for my son's third birthday. He built all kinds of his own creations. Last summer, I found him and his older brother building the projects on the blueprint. They were fighting over the pieces. I looked online and could not find replacement pieces anywhere. Now we have lost one of the four wheels that go with this toy so we cannot build many of the projects. I tried to give this toy away for younger kids to use, but my son (now 5) would not have it. Overall this is a durable and interesting little workbench. It has stuck around our house a year longer than I thought it would.
 Cute, but not durable. January 26, 2009

My son loves tools so I got this for his third birthday. He doesn't play with it as much as I thought he would. The drawer is impossible to open and close so we just leave it shut. I'm not sure what causes it to fit so tightly that it cannot be easily opened without using some force. It is also a lot smaller than I imagined. He does play with it from time to time, but I don't think it is one of his favorite toys by any means. I do like being able to build different projects with him though. Perhaps he will use it more as he gets older.
my sons best gift ever January 13, 2009

this workshop is so great, the kids actually get satisfaction out of building something, over and over again and you can make several diferent things. Keeps them busy for hours. Very easy to keep organized as well! Would reccommend for age 3 but older kids loved it too.

Gramma (Upstate New York)
My 2+ year old grandson had a great time with this item. He and his sister spent hours putting the projects together. Replacing the pieces of "wood" in their forms gave them an extra treat-they saw it as a puzzle.
On the other hand, construction of the unit was a slight problem. The instruction concerning attaching the "vise" were not clear. We received the four screws to attach the top to the base, but there were no holes in the base to screw them into although there were holes provided on the top.
All in all my grandson was delighted and that's what counts.
