After reading many reviews, I was hesitant to purchase the product, but Thanksgiving was coming up, and I really needed a place to put all of our shoes that wouldn't be an eyesore and would still be convenient. This sits neatly in the corner of our dining room and no one would guess that's where we stash our shoes. Bonus, it serves as extra seating when we have guests over! The chest was in great condition out of the box and took less than a half hour for my husband to assemble. After almost three months, I have no complaints.

I really love this toy box!! It was super easy to put together, I put it together mostly by myself then I got a second person when putting the top on, that part can be tricky if you attempt it alone. The box is perfect, no scratches no dents, enough room for all my daughters toys. She’s 18 months old, I attached the pic of her reaching into it. The lid is lightweight so she can open it and close it herself. Very kid friendly and safe, the top stays open once lifted to prevent any injuries. I recommend this. Some of the reviews worried me and I got a little hesitant but I couldn’t be happier with this purchase!

We recently bought two of these for our playroom. They look very nice and give the room a more finished look. My favorite feature is that the lid can stay open on it's own so there's no chance of any little fingers getting pinched from a falling lid. They also provide a nice flat surface in the room for my daughter to play with things on, like puzzles or little figures. Definitely recommend and would buy again.

Pros: This was easy to assemble, although trying to hold the boards together while twisting the screws in was a pain. This isn't the manufacturer's fault. Any time you assemble a large piece of furniture, that will happen, so I recommend having someone help you with assembly. They provide you with all the tools and screws you need to put this together. The screws even have a white tip so they blend in nicely with the box. The equipment for assembly was nicely labeled and packed. Everything arrived on time and was packaged well. Obviously it's heavy, so be careful when carrying it. I love the air pumps that keep the lid from being slammed shut. I also really like the white, plastic handles that easily clamp into the side holes. The wooden material has a nice, smooth finish and the plastic handles make the box far more comfortable to carry. This box is even bigger than the last toy chest I purchased from Amazon. Cons: With every piece of furniture that ships, there are minor imperfections in the wood. This is extremely hard to prevent and the imperfections are hardly noticeable. The assembly is difficult to do alone, but once again, that's not the manufacturer's fault. I also don't like the fact that this toy chest can't be personalized, but that's a minor issue for me.

My husband and I were looking for toy boxes knowing how overboard we went on Christmas. We have always loved anything we purchased from the KidKraft brand so when we saw these we went ahead and purchased them. I am so happy we did - install was an absolute breeze, they are very sturdy, and actually have plenty of room on the inside. The slow close feature is very nice as well. I would definitely recommend this to anyone buying a toy box. Spend a little extra to get something nice that will last - I feel that this toy box is that.

I got a toy box from Walmart a long time ago as a gift for my toddler. It was flimsy and the bottom broke in nearly a week. I knew I had to get an updated version as my daughter is in her last few glory years of playing with toys (although it pains my heart..) I wanted her to have something fashionable but aesthetically pleasing and not a hazard when I had her friends over for her play dates and such. So I bought this on a whim seeing its great reviews and I have to admit I’m blown away. The size is fantastic for the price. Her toys aren’t even to the top yet. And she has a lot of toys. It fits fabulously in the corner of her room and is so sturdy she can sit on top of it as a seat. It’s a beautiful white color with zero imperfections. Big pain in the butt to put together, so I had to have my room mate do it for me. But he got it done in about an hour... the instructions were very confusing and he hardly used them. So my only complaint would be the assembly. But to assemble a real wooden chest I suppose it takes time and work. It’s well worth it.

We had ordered a very similar toy box from Babies R Us and it arrived damaged - the metal hinges were broken. We contacted the store, who told us we had to contact the toy box manufacturer. They sent us replacement hinges that were the wrong size. We ended up returning the toy box and ordering this one instead. We should have just got this one first! It was SUPER easy to put together. The slow-close hinges are great because I don't have to worry about my son pinching his fingers. We also got a KidKraft cushion that fits on top and it looks great in his room!

When putting anything like this, you need to make sure that YOU keep it sturdy while putting it together. One wrong move can create too much unstable pressure and basically rip out any screws. I’ve learned this the hard way! This was super easy to put together and once it is built, it’s very sturdy. I wanted it for shoes and it’s perfect. Fits right where I wanted it and holds every shoe. It’s a lot bigger than what I thought it would be. I’m super happy with my purchase! I’d be the first to tell you if something was crap, this is actually a really great product especially at the price. You really can’t beat it!

This toy box is amazing for the price, it’s extremely sturdy not cheap flimsy material and very easy to put together, me and my husband put it together in less than 30 minutes. It is way easier with 2 people I will say especially for putting the lid on. We love the slow close lid! I ordered the color Vanilla and it is beautiful! It’s like a cream color and it’s perfect if your looking for something that’s not so stark white. I plan on putting my daughters name on the front soon. Very pleased and would defiantly purchase again! Ps I think a lot of the bad reviews are because people over tighten the screws or either tried to put it together by themselves, because this toy box is really nice!

I wish I could give it more stars. I am always so worried about buying things online because of the bad reviews. I was deciding between 3 toy boxes. Took me a couple days to finally pick one and I am so happy I picked this one. It was so easy to put together (you will need 2 people though). It’s very sturdy and very safe. It comes with shocks so the lid doesn’t ever slam down and hurt the children. It’s a nice size and looks great. Doesn’t look cheap or feel cheap at all.
