I was so excited when I learned that KidKraft sold toy boxes!! I always thought they just offered toys and play sets. To my surprise, they do so much more than that! They also have furniture, decor, personalized products, and more!! It can all be seen at www.kidkraft.com!
Below I have shared photos of my process putting the toy box together, before and after photos, and my happy toddler!!
When the box arrived it was a big box but just big enough to hold the pieces in it flat and against each other. KidKraft was super careful about their packaging and had styrofoam thick pieces all around the outside of the boards. In between each board piece there was a thin sheet of Styrofoam. I was pleased how much care they took in packaging this product.
I felt a little discouraged when I saw all of the pieces but the assembly directions that came with it were very easy to follow and within 40-50 minutes (mind you I have a toddler to work around), it was up and ready to be used.
I did run into some unclear sections in the assembly instructions. I made a mistake and used the all silver screws on the sides instead of the bottom when there were screws that had painted heads to match the espresso color of the wood.. I did have to unscrew them all to replace them with the painted one so they wouldn't pop out staring at you when it is all put together. Perhaps on the packaging I'd suggest that KidKraft will label the screws for the section. In the picture below you will see that everything is labeled but both sets of the screws were labeled the same.. they are the same screws but one set is painted on top and the others aren't. It's really not a huge deal and it was very fixable.
The only additional tool I needed to put the toy box together was a screw driver which we already had.
The lid is attached to safety hinges to prevent little fingers from being pinched. Honestly, this is probably my favorite feature. I love how easily the lid pops up and how slowly it goes down when you push on it.
The color is beautiful and there were no scratches or dents. It appears that it will hold up for a long time and it looks nice in our living room. We had so many toys scattered and overflowing my daughters old toy box that this really made an improvement.
This toy box also doubles as a little bench as well. My daughter quickly figured this out by exploring it and climbing on top of it. She sat some of her stuffed animals on top and said "Look Mommy, they have a seat too!"
Below is some product details from KidKrafts website:
This toy box also comes in different colors such as: Cherry, Natural, White, and Pink.
I am happy with the size of this toy box and how sturdy it feels. This is the toy box I have been searching for and just couldn't find until now. I am happy and so is my daughter.
My house looks cleaner and the design is tasteful. I definitely recommend them and hope that you will take the time to check out the rest of their products on www.kidkraft.com
