This toy box was purchased as a gift for my son’s 2nd birthday to go in his Thomas themed bedroom. I have had my eye on it for a while, as I liked the idea of seating (Dual use). However, once put together, taken apart, put back together again several times, it is obvious that there is either a fault with the hinges or the design! The two seats do not/will not close correctly. They are on slow release hinge to prevent fingers being caught, but they simply will not shut properly and stay upright by several inches. While the toy box is sturdy and well painted, looking effective, the compartments are also small, therefore only hold small toys. They also prevent you from puting in many items as they are so large and take up a fair space inside the box. Im not really that impressed with the design and would have happily gone for a plain one if Id have known it would be like this! Doesn’t serve the real purpose it was purchased for, simply cosmetically pleasing.
