How sturdy is this bench? I have a rambunctious 3 yr old and a 3 month old--will this be able to survive some toddler action?

I know exactly what you mean, I have a 2 year old Grandson who could move my house from one location to another in a blink of an eye. This bench survived him without a scratch or loss of buttons. he climbed on it, stood up in it and fooled around with the lid. It is very sturdy.

It appears to be pretty sturdy- I use it for end of bed storage -and sit on it daily to put on socks and shoes

Yes, it is very sturdy! Our teenagers sit on it all the time, but our teens are kind of on the small size for their age, one is about 80 lbs and the other about 95-100 lbs and both under 5 feet tall to give you an estimate.

It's pretty sturdy and I think it could handle it. 2 full-grown adults have sat on mine without any worries

Got for my 3 yr old grandsons & supervised. Two might be little young. It is tall but extremely sturdy.

It's pretty sturdy. I just got a picture from my babysitter yesterday, as a matter of fact, of my 2 1/2 year old "taking a nap" in hers! She could barely fit, but the cradle held up just fine!

we had it only for few days so it's not broke yet lol. just kidding. my kids are pretty rough with it but it seems very durable and well made. Unless you crash it on purpose, I don't see breaking it.

I think it is sturdier than that. I really like the crib. We use it with our 13 month old grandson, and he is heavy, too.

The bench is solid and sturdy enough to sit on-- depends on the weight of the adult. I weigh a little over 200 lbs. and can sit on it. I wouldn't want to sit on it for a long time because it's narrow; but to take off shoes, etc. I would.

I don't know exactly how much weight it can hold, but in my opinion it is definitely sturdy enough to be used as a bench. We have it at the foot of our 3 year old daughter's bed (queen sized bed), and it holds all her stuffed animals, blankets, etc., but she also uses it to climb onto her bed. I have sat on it many times (I weigh about 140lbs) and it never felt unsteady. My husband also sits on it and he weighs about 200lbs.

I weigh 175 lbs. and I can turn it over and stand on it without it collapsing. It is pretty sturdy. It certainly seems like it would support the weight of a seated 3rd grader. Though I'm sure the manufacturer would not recommend it. I hope that helps.

My daughter is about 30 pounds, and she swings on it all the time. When playing with her, I'll sometimes briefly swing on it, and I'm about 90 pounds. I don't use it for any length of time, so I can't really say how well it would hold up if I used it often, but it seems sturdy.

This chair is quite sturdy. My baby is a little over a year and also likes to "dance", and she is fine in it. I have had friends with kids as old as 2 1/2 use it and was fine for them too. It is a great chair - I highly recommend it!

I bought it for my grandson who was turning 4. He did very well with it. I would say 3 would probably be as young as this could go unless ur two yr old grandson is advanced and quite coordinated. But it's a great work bench.

Mine is quite sturdy. Not sure I would let an adult sit on it, but would probably support the weight of my 10-year-old stepson. It gets a lot of wear from people resting their feet on the bottom shelf, which I should have foreseen, but it came with a touch up marker, so it still looks good.

I would say it is strong enough for a bench- we have used it to sit on-very sturdy

One person can handle it fine. About 20 lbs. But it holds a great amount of weight. Very sturdy. I love my benches and want to get more. Their quality was much better than I expected. We have even thought of locking them together when we are not at the campground so they do not mysteriously "walk off" !

Very sturdy! My 22 pound one year old actually decided to sit on it and it held her lol.

The mattress rests on a relatively thick wood slab which is bolted tightly to the crib with four nice, solid metal fasteners that you ought to tighten with a wrench. I'd trust the crib to hold my baby's weight until he's about 18-24 months old or 25 lbs, whichever comes first. Though it holds up when my toddler daughter (2.5 yrs, 35 lbs) climbs inside, I would never let her jump in it. It's very sturdy when all the screws are tightened well, but it's still too lightweight to withstand the kind of thrashing a larger toddler can give it!
