Review: I purchased this item for my 15 month old primarily for the piano portion of the toy and I must say that he loves the piano. However, he has very little interest in the rest of the table top items. As with several other reviews I read my son also initially wanted to climb onto the table portion and I agree that it is a bit wobbly, however, even doing his best King Kong impersonation he never managed to colapse it. I hope that as he gets older the other table top items will interest him but that is secondary to his love of the piano. I recommend this item if, like myself, you have a little music lover at home.

Review: My baby received this as a gift for her first birthday and she has played with it every day since. She likes the building side the best because she can stack the big, chunky blocks all by herself.
She also enjoys the piano, especially flipping the "pages" back and forth. I like that you can actually pick out some simple songs on the keyboard like Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, her favorite. This was very easy to put together and sturdy enough that she can climb in it and sit (with a little supervision).
Overall, a really fun toy.

Review: I agree with it being a bit rickety. My daughter got this for her 1st birthday and every morning she goes and enthusiastically plays a "song", swings along showing off. Every child should have one of these tables. Yes, I believe Chicco should take into consideation all toddlers WILL eventually climb on it and possibly fall...this should be a warning on the insert. Then again, the Fisher Price ones are steadier. Good value for $$ though.

Review: This was an instant hit with our son when we bought it. There are several components to the toy, but not too many to overstimulate or make it dis-interesting. With the table component, I agree with others - the legs can be wobbly IF your child is sitting on the ground and tries to pull the table down. I don't think that can be solved with any table on the market. But more importantly, you can take the table off the legs and set it on the ground. In either case, our son will crawl to it first thing in the morning and play with it endlessly (okay... he does have to sleep and eat).
The piano is by far the favorite. There is a piano book where the pages will turn. For each turn the piano will do different things: 1st page - the baby can play their own tune, 2nd page - a tune will automatically play when the keyboard is touched, 3rd page - the baby can follow along the lighted keys to play a tune. You can also change the sound to four different instruments. The other activity area contains different sounds (bees buzzing, frogs ribbeting, etc.) for different actions. My son is also very interested in this.
On the other (flip side) of the table, you can use this for the 10 building blocks provided. The Chicco blocks are nice and large, and my son loves play for the blocks and/or grabbing and reaching for them in the storage compartment of the table. He's not of the age to construct the blocks right now. He loves the sound of clinking them together and demolishing anything I build.
As a parent, I feel he his getting exposed to many different elements for his growth and this is definitely a toy he will not grow out of in a month. I can see him playing with this for months on end.

Review: I got this for my daughter's first birthday and she loves it and so did all of the other babies that were at her party. She hasn't played with the lego side yet but she likes to pull them out of the cubby and put them back in. Her favorite part is the piano. This product was very easy to put together. The plastic legs are a little wobbly but they will support daughter leaning on it. And the idea that I can detach the piano and take it with us on trips for car and stroller intertainment is a plus.
