KidKraft 14958 Austin Box Kids Toy Chest Review
KidKraft 14958 Austin Box Kids Toy Chest Review by Andrea Steudeman (StL,MO)
The Honey color goes well with the Oak stained furniture we already have. It's holding up good but you can see imperfections (drips) in the stain. DH didn't want the hassel of returning it so we just kept it. Most of the time I don't notice the imperfections and it's ok. My son thinks it's great so that's what counts.
KidKraft 14958 Austin Box Kids Toy Chest Review by Angelbud (Columbia City, IN United States)
Please let me preface this review by admitting I rarely share my opinion even though I am an avid Amazon shopper. Working full time in Social Services with a long commute and two small children, I simply have to prioritize my time and writing reviews has not been one of those priorities. Today, I have taken the time to write because I wanted to warn other potential buyers of the substandard quality associated with this particular toy box.
We purchased this KidKraft toy box and intended to use it as a gift from Santa for our one-year-old daughter. We had planned to fill it with a variety of toys for her to open on Christmas morning. We have previously purchased two toy boxes manufactured by KidKraft and purchased both of them on Amazon for our three-year-old son. There were never issues with quality. (However, we had not purchased this particular style/finish in the past.)
I read all of the reviews for this product. (Yes. I consistently read reviews but don't contribute like I should.) The general consensus was that this was a quality product with a reasonable price. I only read one review that indicated there were quality issues. I should have paid more attention to that particular review because I could have avoided this nightmare. He wasn't fooling!
Late on Christmas Eve 2010, we opened the packaging and began assembling the toy box. Immediately, I noticed the "cherry finish" was shoddy and looked like it had been sprayed on inconsistently. It was also more of a brown color than a cherry finish. But, since Christmas morning was just hours away, I decided I could accept the finish discrepancy. I then noticed the toy box was manufactured with poor quality particle board...not what I had expected from an "all-wood" product. I was getting a bit perturbed but thought I might be able to live with particle board as long as the toy box served its purpose of safely containing toys. We then started to assemble the toy box. What a nightmare! The screws went straight through the particular board and into what would become the inside of the toy box. (Her father is a seasoned professional contractor and had assembled the other two KidKraft toy boxes.)
The sharp screw tips protruded into the interior of the toy box and were an unquestionable safety hazard to anyone using toy box. The particle board disintegrated around the screws and actually began to splinter off. The joints were also substandard. In my opinion, the toy box would not withstand regular usage or the weight of a child. At this point, I demanded we stop the assembly process and start wrapping all of the intended contents. I could not give my child a gift that would unquestionably cause her harm. I immediately accessed Amazon and requested to return the item due to is being defective and thus, a safety hazard.
Please take heed before purchasing this item. There are other KidKraft toy boxes out there that are of much better quality and in the same price range. This particular model is of substandard quality and is a potential safety hazard. It needs to be recalled. Beware.
KidKraft 14958 Austin Box Kids Toy Chest Review by Atlanta parent
I bought this toy box because it the perfect size and it had a variety of colors. Since my daughter's furniture is espresso, I ordered the espresso. When the box arrived, my husband and I were very excited to put it together but the excitment quickly went away when we saw the color. It is NOT a dark, espresso color as shown in the pictures. It is a cherry wood color. We have Cherry wood furniture in our master bedroom and the toy box is an exact match.
