This was very inexpensive and conveniently compact compared with other kids table and chairs. Being plastic, it is wipe clean and will be fine for outdoor use in the warmer weather. The construction was mildly tricky - simple enough to work out, but the legs and backs of the chairs needed hammering in, whereas the table legs slot in nicely but met with no resistance so they basically fall out when lifting the table to move it, but I suppose the stability of the chairs is higher priority so not an issue for me personally.
