Step 2 Pump & Splash Discovery Pond Water Table, Kids Water Sensory Activity Pool, Summer Outdoor Toys, 10 Piece Toy Accessories, For Toddlers 2+ Years Old

I purchased this for my grand sons 3rd birthday gift and it was a massive hit. Definitely his favorite present. It was easy to put together, after finding a bag of parts hidden under the base. It is held together using long screws.It comes with several toys including a rubber duck, fish and frog as well as a lily pad and bucket.It's big enough that he can sit inside the base and play.The pump is a cool feature and spins around so you can pour the water in any direction.

Wasn’t sure if it was worth buying after reading other reviews. However, I bought it anyways and I’m glad I did. So, the pump has not been a problem for us. It works everytime we use it without having to use any lubricant. We prime it with the hose and it works like a charm. Definitely have to use a drill to assemble. It took me maybe 30 to 45 min to assemble. It was purchased for my toddler but his 13 yr old sister loves it too. So, it was a great purchase.

Only a review on set up** Our 2.5 year old assisted us and had fun putting it together but 2 adults was nice and made set up go faster. 1 person to hold peices while the other drilled or screwed. Recommend a battery drill to make it easy due to no pre drilled holes and a SMALL Phillips screw driver where the drill cant get to.

Wonderful! My four grandkids loved it! It was simple to put together. You need some muscle for getting the screws in though!

Final update almost a year after buying. I see reviews saying it was a tube falling off problem. That may be the case for them, but we have the repair kit that stops that and it still did not work- you have to unscrew the pump and put a lube on it like aquaphor/Vaseline every couple of uses to keep the pump working. These are instructions directly from the manufacturer. We called Step 2 again and this is the “fix”. It does work when you do this. But what a complete pain! A water table should not require unscrewing parts, applying lube, and reassembling several times over the summer. Please test your products better before releasing Step 2!*** Kid you not - it broke again- this time when I was pumping it for them so I know it wasn’t being misused! I bought this in May for my kids and it’s now August. Instead of having fun with this table all summer, it’s been endless phone calls, waiting on shipments, and repairing. Now we are past the Amazon return window so it’s just a loss for us (over $100)- unless we want to continue calling and waiting each time it breaks for a new part that lasts- at most- two weeks. I expect more from step 2!*** Hopefully last updateStep 2 sent another pump and this one has been working for a few weeks. I’m tentatively updating the stars if it continues working. The pump is hard for even my nine year old to pump, therefor I’m giving it four stars. I have heard some people use silicone spray for this problem, but for this price, and after three re-assemblies from broken pumps, I’m not also purchasing spray to make it work better ** Update: After waiting on hold for over an hour again, Step 2 sent out a 3-d printed part that attaches to the bottom of the pump tube to fix the pump problem. It did absolutely nothing. The pump still does not work. When will they address the actual problem with the pump- the seal that moves and becomes stuck within a day or two? My husband even sent them a short video showing the problem, which they ignored. At this point, we are considering returning since we’ve had this product for weeks and the main feature remains unusable- but my kids are so disappointed and this thing will be a huge pain to return. I wish they would work out an actual solution! We have many Step 2 toys that have lasted almost a decade and I’m so thoroughly disappointed in the lack of adequate engineering in this product as well as inadequate testing before going to market.**I will update my product review if/when Step2 fixes the pump problem. As of now, the pump stops working after a day or two. Other reviewers have had the same problem. Step 2 was very nice and sent a replacement pump, but it also stopped working after two days. If the pump did not fail so quickly, I would easily give this pond five stars. We bought it to replace our water table to better suit our kids (9,6,2) because the older kids still love water tables but most tables are too short for them to play comfortably. This one is tall enough for easy play for the big kids and short enough for the toddler in other areas. Most children under three will not be old enough to operate the pump but there are many other entertaining areas! A great design (minus the pump problem) for all ages! As of now, I would not order this pond until they work out the pump problem. I will update my review when the problem is resolved.

We love this water toy! Buuuutttt..... it would be SO nice if it had a drain. It is a pain to dump out and if we leave water in there we get bugs and slime. Probably going to drill a hole and add our own drain but it should come with one, especially since other items from this brand come with drains.

A favorite for my two grandsons, aged 5 and 1. Super sturdy and holds a lot of water! The pic is the 5 yr old. Large enough for the two of them to play in the water. Easy to lift and tilt to dump water out and clean. Highly recommend for safe cooling off in the summer.

We love this! We were looking at some that were battery powered and found this instead, so glad we went with it! Not only is it big enough for multiple toddlers to play in at once but also keeps them interested and tires them out with the pump! It’s easy to clean and to assemble. Our kids spent hours on this and even ignored their new play set so they could splash around in this! Highly recommend!
