This table is a great large size with the ability to grow with your child. My 3 year old can easily reach things that are in the middle of the table. It surprisingly feels very sturdy! The directions are very easy to follow and took almost an hour and a half to put together. Just a heads up: the box it comes in is VERY heavy.
Unfortunately, I can't say I'm totally happy with the purchase. I was disappointed to see the lack of quality control coming from a Melissa & Doug product. A side board was not painted on all four sides (looks unfinished), holes were not centered together so I had to drill in my own and the top two pieces seem to be too small for the table. The top pieces have me most concerned. The gaps on the sides are big enough for little fingers to fit through and lift up the board. If I knew this is what I would be receiving I would've ordered from a store so I could return or I would look more into other options.
UPDATE:
After writing this review, Barbara from Melissa and Doug left a message (below) to get in touch with her. I called in and spoke to a very friendly receptionist who got me in touch with Barbara. Barbara assured me that my experience with this table was not at all up to their quality standards. Within 2 days of speaking to her I received a replacement part for the piece that was not painted on all four sides along with a train tunnel and wooden trains for my troubles. It was incredibly generous of her! For anyone that isn’t happy with their Melissa and Doug purchase- do not hesitate to contact them. Their customer service is outstanding.
We’ve had the table set up in the playroom for about a month now and my boys absolutely love it. I was concerned with the two top pieces at first, but we haven’t had any issues with my two year old picking them up. This piece of furniture is solid and there is no doubt in my mind that it will last for years.
After visiting a toy store and seeing other train sets on the market, I can honestly say I am very happy with this purchase. The others I’ve seen are nowhere near as big or versatile as the Melissa and Doug table.

Original: I ordered this table for my son because he loves trains and we ordered him the Melissa and Doug train set and this is said to go with it. All of the parts were clean and well made, no damage or marks. However when I read "storage table" and saw the holes on the top to lift the green flat part of the table, I assumed there was storage under the table top and there is not. It's a big table with one small drawer on one side. The table also only fits the train set in one configuration and it BARELY fits. One bump and the track falls off the side. The table top doesn't even come together so you can't really use it for a craft table because any craft/crayon will just get stuck in the gaps. Overall, I feel like I paid way too much for a plywood table with a small drawer and a thin top that doesn't fit the table.
Not what I was expecting. Disappointed.

Update: my son got tired of the track constantly falling off this table because it doesn't fit well, so I went to put the track away in the drawer so he could try using the table for something else and I can't even put the whole track away... the "large storage drawer" doesn't even fit the track they show it being made for... Pretty frustrating that I now need to purchase something else to store the track...Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2023

Product looked to be exactly what I wanted for my son’s train set. Easy enough to assemble for one person in about an hour. I’d recommend a ratcheting screwdriver.
Three big drawbacks:
1. There is unfortunately a large gap going around the table top. Not a deal breaker but seeing part of the supports around the edges gives the impression of an inferior product. They don’t seem to have been sized correctly for the interior of the frame.
2. Only one of the table top halves sits flush. The other ramps up at one end no matter how we position them.
3. Biggest flaw is the stability. This thing wobbles at the slightest touch. It’s been in use for a few hours now and I’ve already had to tell my kids not to lean on it out of fear of something breaking.
