Our first one came to us unfortunately completely dented (through an Amazon vendor.) The second one though has been a hit! Our daughter got it when she was about 13 months old and now that she is just over two, she can not go near it without wanting to fill it up and "play water table." She loves it so much that she will run outside to the tap and try to fill it up herself. It is large enough for her to have room to play, but small enough to store in our condo's small garage. The price is reasonable too.
