Fuel Your Child'S Creativity With Step2 Handy Helpers Workbench Building Set Review

Love this workbench and my 2 year old grandson loves it as well. My only complaint is that while the assembly of the workbench was pretty basic, four holes needed for the screws in order to connect the top portion to the base were not made. Luckily my husband was able to make the holes with a drill but not everyone is experienced with using a drill. These holes most definitely should have been made already.

The workbench needed to be put together, which is fine except for most of the holes were not pre-drilled. Luckily I decided to put this together before giving to my nephew as a gift. I was able to drill holes where needed but if you don't own a drill or aren't handy enough to do that, beware.

This was missing the vices it was supposed to come with as part of the tools did not return item because it was a Christmas gift

Okay product good price. My son was disappointed that the drill was dead on arrival. The motor spins but doesn’t engage the drive. Other than that the other stuff is good

It's OK, but.The toy bolts don't screw into the unthreaded backboard or benchtop holes = many useless holes.The tool hooks don't hold the tools well; one bump and they fall off( I heated and bent them to hold better.Some of the holes for assembly screws weren't drilled; I drilled them.

Good little starter workbench. However, the screw holes for assembly were not pre-drilled. I had to screw into plastic and essentially make my own screw holes. Under the gray worktable was difficult to do this because of the angle. There are some other workbenches that are better quality but this one will provide hours of entertainment.

My 2.5 year old loves this! He uses the drill ALL the time. I was going between this one and one that didn't have a drill, and I am so glad I went with this one. Very simple and practical :). The only downside is that there are bite marks in the foam pieces from my 10 month old.lol.

This was our Santa gift for our 3 year old. I was really disappointed in the size & quality. It got maybe 5 minutes of play time, now it is stuck in a corner.

Love this and our son loves it. Only complaint is pieces were missing. None that prevented it from being assembled but it’s suppose to come with foam wood pieces for play and ours were missing. I was able to order the foam wood from the Step to Website.

would have given five but i received a workbench that was missing an entire box of hardware (toy screws, tool hooks, and actual screws to put it together) plus it was missing the hardware bin for the bottom. the company gave me a 50% refund though so that was great ;)

Bought for my grand son for his home cause I have the same one at my house that he loves to play with. This drill is the best the end doesn't fall out like most toy drills!

Bought this workbench for my two-year-old grandson for Christmas, he spends many hours playing with this and "fixing things" with the hammer and drill.

My granddaughter likes toys made for both genders. The tools were easy for her to use and the bench is the perfect height for her. The only thing that was disappointing was the missing foam blocks that were supposed to be included for use with the tools.

Our daughter loves it and it seems very durable. I like the size of the piece because it doesn't take up too much space in her okay area. Extra pieces are easy to store and keep together.

My grandchildren 2 & 3 really enjoy this. It was easy to assemble and is quite solid. They enjoy role-playing activities they see adults doing. Have a similar one for cooking. As with some other toys there are a number of small parts which will probably end up at the bottom a toy box or lost but bigger components like saw, drill, hammer will get used frequently.

Was missing 12 pieces not including the screws to put it together. Waisted 50 bucks. It's completely useless! Certain projects may require additional materials not included in the set.

My kid has loved playing with this. He may still be a little young to use the workbench that much, but he enjoys the tools. Even with the abuse he puts them through, nothing has broken.

The design is a good idea, but the drill never did work.not even once and not after changing the battery.The little holders for the tools (screwdriver, hammer, etc) are too large and won't hold the tools. More than frustrating. This was an expensive idea for parts that are already broken when they arrive.

Bought 2 of these for my grandsons at Christmas. One is almost three and the other just turned two. Both boys love it and it is a great size. Drill that comes with it is also a big hit.
