Customer Review: You get what you pay for
Summary: 3 Stars
For what you pay for this product, it's decent.
What I like:
(1) Great size.
(2) Safety hinges really do work well.
(3) For the cost, it looks good (and works in my dining room).
(4) Previous reviewer is correct: the top is not solid wood (and neither are the side, front or rear panels). I think this is designed this way so that the top is lighter and the safety hinges work, but it does give you a sense that it's of lower quality. To look at it, though, you would never know this. You only realize it as you put it together.
(5) Goes together pretty fast with a phillips and a flathead.
(6) My nanny liked it and she's the biggest critic in our household, especially when it comes to safety.
What I don't like:
(1) The safety hinges attach to the rear panel, and it's flimsy. It wobbles with every opening. However, there are two hinges that hold the top to the rear corners that ease my mind on safety. I'm not worried about the top falling off or coming down hard. My 2-and-a-half-year-old had the most fun this weekend opening and closing this box and I rarely worried about his fingers. Now that he's opened it so many times successfully, I won't worry at all.
(2) The die cut on the bottom was not correct, so we had to cut the bottom piece to make it fit (or send it back--what a pain).
(3) The white plastic pieces that are designed to cover the tightening mechanisms don't fit. If I'm going to use them, I'm going to have to glue them.
