I bought this for my 2 year old son. He has not stopped playing with it since I put it together a few hours ago.Assembly is simple. It would have been simpler if I wasn't one of those stupid girls that doesn't know how to use power tools. Took about 45 minutes, putting it together by myself without a drill. My 2 year old climbing over me and the parts trying to use his "tools" slowed down the process as well. :) There are few if any pre drilled holes in the parts. The screws that come with it go easily through the plastic without pre drilled holes. Might have been purposely done that way to prevent stripping the plastic? Not sure.The bench itself is great with a drawer under the main part of the tabletop, a large cubby for the "wood", a cabinet with a cubby underneath and above. The plastic jars for the screws slide into grooves, pegs attach on the back wall to hang tools and there is a working light above the work bench. The vise grip isn't great and it frustrates my son because it doesn't tighten very well on the "wood" but I think that will be fine once he gets a little older. The bench is sturdy and I think will last a long time.The vacuum while a cute touch is just a nuisance. It falls off and my son has pretty much ignored it.The tools that come with the bench are awesome. It includes a hammer, screwdriver, drill with 2 bits that work, wrench, pliers and a saw that makes a sawing sound when it is used on the fake wood. The wood pieces are foam, puzzle like pieces that have a wood grain. You can put the screws through them with the drill and cut them with the saw. My son has loved that the most.The light above the bench uses 3 AAA batteries and the drill needs 2 AA batteries. I had the AA on hand but had to pillage through my remotes to find some AAA's. Rookie mistake- you would think I didn't have another kid and go through all of this before, granted it was 12 years ago but whatever!It was worth paying the extra money for a quality toy that I think my son will enjoy for a long time.
