Please help me find this sand and water table

[purpleeyes]

I really *love* this s/w table-

I love that it closes up and turns into a table for our deck.
Unfortunately, I can't find it ANYWHERE-not online or in the stores.

Can anyone help me find it or something like it?

TIA!!!

You could have ours -- we hate it. Its messy and the sand gets into the water. It also d/n stay locked together, either when folded or when open. Definitely NOT a product I would purchase again.

LOL - I was just coming to say "Be glad that you can't find it" :)

I know several people with them - they all hate them. Everything gets mixed together, it is a pain to fold, the water gets down in the legs and you can't get it out, and on, and on, and on.

Most of my friends with this one say the same thing. We have had our Step 2 Naturally Playful one for 6 years and it's still going strong. We tend to use it mainly for water (not sand) now, but we love it and lots of kids can get around it.

Agreeing with PPs. I've only heard bad reviews of this one.

Ahhh, yes, water in the legs and the table itself. DH took a drill to ours.... LOL

Thanks for the feedback!! It sounds like I should look for something else.
I'm thinking about this one-the sand and sea table

looks like it has pretty much what I need.
Thanks again!!!

Sand and Water combo tables are a good idea in theory. But you always end up with sandy water and waterlogged sand....
The Naturally Playful one is great, even if the umbrella is crap.

The Naturally Playful one is great.
We have been happy with this one.

The sand and water table combo never worked out for us either.
We have this, but keep it filled only with sand...

Then for water we have this...

I guess if you don't end up putting water in the first one you could go with this, it's cheaper...

Then get the separate water table.

Sorry, but add me to the list of haters. I'm setting ours (the first one you posted) out for free this weekend at the neighborhood garage sale and buying just a sand table with a separate lid.

When Jack turned 1, I bought the first one- because that's all they had, and we kept water in it... it was fantastic...
Last year they came out with the third one...I wish they had that when we bought the first one.

We have the Step 2 Naturally Playful. Yes, the sand gets mixed with water and the water with the sand. But, to be honest, that is why my son likes it so much. He loves mixing everything up.

We have the step 2 water and sand table and LOVE it! I either fill with water or sand or we get mud. I think they are just too young to have both. I would buy it again for sure! Sam's Club has it on sale for $58!!!

Agreed on all counts. We converted our sand/water table to sand-only 4 summers ago and have never looked back! We also keep it in the overhang of our neighbor's house, so we're not bothered that the umbrella fell apart 5 years ago and the kids jammed a rubber ball into the hole in which the pole would go.
