Large Toy Chest, Lid and Handles, Collapsible Bin, Elephant

This isn't my first experience with this brand. I've purchased 3 different bags, a cube container and this toy box. I absolutely love them! They are very durable and absolutely adorable! They're even cuter in person. Now, on to the toy chest. I just purchased this for my 1 year old for Christmas. I have 4 kids so we've definitely had our share of toy boxes. We had several that were wooden and the lids were a huge problem. They were always coming down on their heads or smashing little fingers. The lids ended up broken because the kids were scared of them after a couple of times of being whacked so they would jump back and let the lid the lids free fall. We have tried plastic without success, even settling for a rubbermaid tote for a while. Kids don't gently place their toys in the box, or at least mine don't. Some of the heavier toys were dropped or launched in a few too many times and the plastic ended up cracked. This toy box seems to have solved those issues for us. It's a canvas fabric, so the lid isn't going to do any damage if it comes down on top of the littles and they certainly aren't going to crack it. It's a really nice size and it's stouter than I thought it would be. It's made like the cube containers that fold up and you open them to put the stiff piece in the bottom, if you know what I'm referring to. I've seen my little guy pull up to it as well as lean waaayyyyy in over the side to get the toy he's after and we haven't had any trouble with it. I've seen several reviews complaining that the lid doesn't have velcro so there's no way to hold it down when it's really full. I think you could easily add a piece of velcro if you wanted to but I honestly don't understand the issue. It doesn't matter whether a container is made of wood, plastic, fabric or steel.....if it's too full, the lid doesn't go on. That's just how stuff works. If you try to cram the lid down on this when it's overflowing, the sides are going to bulge so you won't accomplish much. This isn't a deal breaker for me. If it gets a little too full (as toy boxes tend to do), I will just let the lid stick up a little. At least it will all be contained. If it gets way too full, I'll invest in a second one. Let's face it, these are inexpensive in the land of toy boxes. Up until Christmas morning, we had been using a large cardboard box to hold all of the treasures. A couple of things to note in my photos........it appears kind of white in the picture thanks to my flash. In reality, it's more of the natural tan canvas color. Also, in one picture, I put his ride on giraffe inside so you could get an idea of the size. I'm happy and I highly recommend.

I read quite a few reviews for these and was concerned about the construction and felt stitching quality as some reviews complained about the box collapsing easily and inconsistencies in the stitching. I have had ours for weeks now and can tell you that if you let your child climb on the lid - it will collapse in on itself so if you can't prevent that you will have issues. Also, if you were to overfill the toy chest continuously the form will lose integrity over time. Just the reality of the construction. Thankfully my daughter doesn't climb on the top so we haven't had that issue. One cat jumped on the closed lid and it pushed into the toy chest but she didn't do it again. We don't overfill the chest and the shape has held up just fine. We use ours in our living room for toys that migrate there. I will ask my daughter to put all the stray toys into the chest before she is allowed to watch a show ;). So all in all I'm very happy I bought this and it fits quite a lot inside which was another concern. The lid is not super sturdy but for the price point you are getting what you pay for....it's not a wooden or keepsake toy chest by any means. The bear is ADORABLE and the stitching was in perfect condition so the reviews describing issues have likely been corrected by the seller now.

I got this as a baby shower gift for my DIL. I had to ship all my gifts (I was flying out), and it was wonderful to find a cute and sturdy box that could nevertheless be folded down to ship. (I had wrapped & smaller items to go inside.) I took it out to see it & put together, and it was perfect. This is not one of those huge, heavy, uber-sturdy boxes. It's made of a sort of canvas material, which is just fine for storing baby-level toys and handy for items mom/dad might need in the nursery. It's got a harder panel to keep it together. It was also a hit at the shower. Everybody loved the critter on the front.

I ordered two of these to use in the play spaces at home (formerly known as the living room and family room). We love the 3 Sprouts items - so cute without being super babyish. The quality of this toy chest is pretty good, but there is a major flaw that I had to address on my own. The lid falls right inside the chest if there aren't things piled up to the top. Our toy chest isn't packed full (yet), and as hard as we tried, we could not get the lid to stop falling inside the chest. There needs to be a toggle, velcro or some sort of tie to keep it shut. I bought my own toggle and sewed it on, and it works great. See attached picture. It was tricky to sew on, since there is thick cardboard underneath the fabric. I had to take a tiny nail and pierce through the cardboard to line up with all of the holes where the toggle attached. I realize this was my own doing, but it was necessary to help keep our sanity - that floppy lid was driving us mad! Our kids aren't old enough to be attacking the toy chest like maniacs, but I realize this is a soft-sided item and will only withstand a certain amount of abuse. We'll do our best to keep them from beating it up too badly, and hope that these will last us for years to come! You obviously can't stuff 3x the amount of toys that should fit and expect it to keep its shape (like the one reviewer did - LOL!), but this holds a good amount of toys. And, it's inexpensive enough, you can buy two for overflow if needed!

I love it!!! I was worried because of some of the reviews and their photos but it's perfect! Some reviews say that it's flimsy or easily collapsible but it's not, yes it's canvas and light weight but the sides it's very sturdy, you would have to be really rough with it to make the sides collapse. If you have a toddler or kid who is known for damaging things then yes you would want to get something plastic and heavy duty but I have over 10 years of babysitting experience and 25 nieces and nephews (I have lots of siblings) and this toy chest could survive almost everyone of them! One of my brothers has some rough kids that could probably damage this a bit but that's only about 4 of 25 so I like those odds! This is perfect! My son is still just a baby and just starting to play with toys so I needed something to hold them all and for $20 this is absolutely worth the money! Even if it only lasts a few years that's still awesome and I love it, I definitely plan to buy another to hold his books or maybe blankets just because it's so cute and plenty big enough!

This is a very cute, soft sided toy box that does the job! Toddler safe and holds quite a bit. We’ve had it for some time and are very pleased with it. It’s held up very well.

I bought this toy chest and a different one for 10-year old twins. Everyone who saw them thought they were adorable. The kids loved them. Highly recommended.

So far so good! Great quality and great value for the price! Not great for extra large toys so make sure you check your measurements. Lightweight and sturdier than expected. Easy setup.

Jetzt kann der Nachwuchs das Aufräumen üben. Die Kiste ist toll!

Lindo baú, mas não pode encher com muitos brinquedos porque vai se deformando e a tampa é muito pouco prática.

Bonito e funcional, valor um pouco alto, fácil de montar

Sturdy product for kids toys

This toy chest is just adorable. going to my grave in thinking the Hippo is the cutest one. The chest itself is sturdy enough to old our toddlers toys. Keep in mind this isn't a hard shelled toy chest, and it cannot take physical weight to be stood on or for too many items to go on top. But it does do a great job at holding everything and brightening up the space.
