 A great first train table! Perfect for 2.5 and under August 18, 2010
jysm (Santa Clara, CA)
Step2 has done it again with an excellent, developmentally appropriate and durable toy. We bought this toy for my son when he was a 1.5 years old. He plays with it for over an hour every day. The set up was pretty straight-forward. You get a pamphlet that shows you where the stickers and bridges go, and you replicate the picture. It makes things easier to put the stickers on first. The pegs that attach the bridges are tough on the thumbs, so you may want to use a mallet of some sort. The legs come with screws but we used it just fine without them screwed in for a few days, but we eventually did screw them in. Give yourself at least 20 minutes.
What's great about this table?
1.) All the pieces are contained within the table. No trains or tracks strewn across the floor for you to step on!
2.) The tracks work with just about any train model. Anyone familiar with the Thomas marketing machine knows that there is more than just one Thomas! Trackmaster, die-cast, wooden, Take-along, Little Engineer Megablock, battery-operated, etc. It can be very frustrating to have incompatible tracks and trains, but these tracks are compatible with mostly all models!
3.) The lid is light and easy to slide between the couch and the wall when not in use. But it is very useful for play. My son loves to use it for play-doh. I don't know why but he loves to shove play-doh down the hole in the lid. Also, it may look like a white board, but it's not. Just white particle board. Mine actually came with a chip in it. It didn't bother me though because it was just cosmetic.
4.) The sticker images are lovely and encourage imaginative play. The cow is cute. The helicopter landing pad is just right for Harold. And my son likes to use an elephant toy to slurp up water from the lake to splash in Henry's face.
5.) It doesn't come with storage, but there is plenty of room underneath for you to store things. Unlike other train tables though, you won't need to store any tracks or toys (see #1)!
6.) Comes with 3 wooden trains (engine, caboose and flat car - none magnetized) and 3 hotwheels-like cars (car, pick-up and van). Cute, but didn't get as much love as the Thomas line. (Any one else agree that Britt Allcroft is a genius? How does the Thomas line have such a strong grip on the hearts of our children?).
What's not great about this table?
1.) The hills are quite steep and battery-operated trains cannot make it up on their own (which defeats the point of motorization, really).
2.) The tracks are compatible with almost all trains, but some of the larger trains (Trackmaster, etc) do not fit under the bridges.
All in all, no complaints here. The weakness of this train table is also it's strength. The tracks are stationary which limits imaginative play. If you're going to keep it simple with a limited number of small, non-motorized trains, this is just right. But as you expand your engine fleet and your child advances in creativity, you might find this table to be lacking. This table has served us so well over the past year or so, but we are now ready to move on to a flat table with movable tracks. We're considering moving this table to the patio to be used as an outdoor toy, or we'll store it in the garage until baby brother grows into it.
My 2 year old son loves his table August 18, 2010
FD (OC, CA)
My 2 year old son loves playing with his Step2 Deluxe Canyon Road Train & Track Table. Originally, we were planning to get a Thomas the Train table (over $200 for just the table and top alone) but after reading the reviews on Amazon and looking at the pictures we decided to get this table so my son could also use his Hot Wheels cars with it. The table is durable and easy to clean. Once in a while he will climb on the table and it's sturdy enough to support his weight.
The table comes with a removable laminate particle board which can be used for arts and craft projects. The box ships in the original carton and is a huge box! Assembly is straightforward; all you need is a Philips screwdriver to screw in the 4 legs (4 screws per leg) and to stick the decals on the tracks and table. The decals are sturdy and very sticky so make sure you have it in the right position before you stick them on. Decals can be easily wiped clean with a damp napkin.
Even after 2 months, my son still plays on this table everyday, so it was worth the money.
Perfect train and car table! August 14, 2010

We ordered this for our son's 2 year birthday. It arrived quicker than anticipated and is perfect for our son. He spends hours each day playing on it, sitting on it, and his 6 and 5 year old siblings are having fun with it as well! We love that the table is reasonably priced and has no loose pieces to come apart (or for him to throw!). This is a great toy buy!
Awesome table!!! July 13, 2010

My son received this as an early 2nd birthday present. He absolutely loves it! His cousin has a train table that just has the roads painted on, but this table is 3D! It is so much better than the other train tables that just have the roads painted on. I didn't put it together, my mother-in-law and her boyfriend did. However, if they can put it together, anyone can! I would definitely recommend this!!! My son uses it for both cars and trains. I cannot say enough about this table!!
 Perfect Activity Table w/ bonus. July 6, 2010

I was looking online for a table for my son to color and paint on and I found this activity table from Step 2. My son loves the roads and tracks. The cars/trains that come with the table are a little cheap so we bought a couple matchbox cars and they work great. The table is perfect height for my 1 1/2 year old. The table top is a easy to clean up with a magic eraser. Overall a great toy and a perfect place for my little guy to color all he wants.
