Product Description

The falling water action from this Waterwheel Play Table encourages creative exploration with cause and effect learning. This imaginative water play center encourages hours of outdoor fun. Pour water into the wide funnel, and activate the water wheel which then spills into the inner and outer harbors. Two molded-in sections function as canals, boats, lakes, harbors and more. An elevated design keeps water at toddler level and also keeps ground dirt clear of water and mud from forming on children's feet. It accommodates up to three children to encourage group play. Two built-in drain plugs allow for easy water removal. The four piece accessory set includes: one cup, two sailboats, and one water wheel tower. Features decorative molded-in fish designs on legs. It can holds up to four gallons of water.

We have owned this water play table for nearly siz months, and its play value has not decreased at all. It is short enough that our 16 month old has always been able to participate comfortably, and interesting enough that it still attracts my 4 and 6 year old children as well.

The water wheel is great fun, and the children love scooping water into its reserve to make it spin. The two levels of the table give the children individual play space if two children are playing. Now that winter is approaching, I look forward to adding sand instead of water to the table. I appreciate the easy-to-open plugs built into the basin, as it makes it easy to remove water (or sand). The toy, though sturdy, is also lightweight enough for an adult to pick up and simply pour water out, if desired. Children cannot, however, easily move or turn the table over.
Great table for fun

Reviewer: K. Jordan,
My daughter has always really liked the water, so we got her this table to play with on the patio. She loves it! She's still learning to stand and move around @ 8 mo. and the table is sturdy enough for her to pull up on and hang on to for balance (supervised of course). She really likes watching the water wheel go around and splashing away!

The drain does leak a little, but it's not a big deal. When we're done playing with the water, it gets dried off and brought inside as an additional play table. We stick toys in it and she walks around the edges playing with the toys in the middle.

Great value for the money. I had looked at a bunch of the other reviews on combo sand and water tables and saw good advice to keep sand and the water as separate activities to avoide a big mess. We'll get her a sand box when she's older, since she's still too young to have sand - it would just get eaten.
!!!TONS OF FUN!!!

No leaks here because there is no plug. It a wonderful size my toddler daycare kids. They could play with Water Wheel Play Table all day long. I did add more cups and water toys for added fun. For $30 you really can't beat that price. I also got Naturally Playful Sand Table these go great together. LOVE IT! A must for parents and caregivers of toddlers!
So Glad I Bought It!

I gave this to my daughter for her second birthday not realizing that my 5 y.o. would love it just as much! They play together for hours on the back deck.

It is a wonderful design - it is just the right height for both of them to play comfotably. There are two levels of play connected by a hill which the girls love rolling balls, etc down. It includes quite a bit, too. Two sail boats, a scoop, and a water wheel with a deatchable top sieve.
It is a perfect size for a deck or patio - not too big or imposing. It won't make your deck look like a toy store.
All in all, I am really please with this product. You should feel good buying it.
Great water toy

We bought this for our 2 year old daughter, who was always wanting to play in the water of our kitchen sink. I like this toy because it's not too bulky and it doesn't combine sand and water, which I couldn't see my daughter playing with yet without making a huge mess. We plan on letting her use it both outside and inside, since we can just drain the water out each time she uses it. That makes the toy very easy to clean since I really wouldn't want her playing in old water anyway. It's a great way to keep her busy playing and having fun.
HOURS OF FUN!!!

Reviewer: Boston Mom,
SO MUCH FUN! I got the water only table because we have a sand box and thought a water toy might be fun...WOW! My 15-month old has so much fun with this and screams when I take him away. It's small enough so that it can be brought inside the porch, but large enough for a couple of kids to play at the same time. Extremely easy to put together...I didn't even read the directions. I'm going to use a small grill cover to keep the bugs out, but it's small enough so that you can fill it each time you use it.

I have had no problems with leaks at all. Based on the previous reviews, I did call Step 2 for replacements, but I don't need them. Step 2 said that they have fixed the problem.
Perfect Water Toy

This is the best water toy I have seen yet. My 2 year old loves playing in water and now she can play year round if she wants to! I like this a lot more than the sand/water play sets. I also like that it's small enough to store but large enough to have my daughters friends play with to! It's super easy to clean off and even if it gets stuck in the rain or mud all I have to do is spray it off!!! :) Makes a great birthday gift to cause it's such a cheap price.
My son loves his water table....

My husband & I chose this table, because it was fairly inexpensive. It was easy to assemble (you just insert the legs, and put together the sail boats) & my son loves it!!! He puts all of his water creatures in it, and plays for hours. It has two plugs on either side to drain out the water when you are finished playing with it; which makes it nice...then you just put it aside & fill it with fresh clean water the next time you are ready to use it.
