I followed the instructions very closely.I did everything correctly.But, when I got to screwing on the metal hindges (which keep the lid from slamming down) to the wooden blocks (located on the lower coners of the lid angle) one of the wooden pieces broke (where the screws are) as the lid came down.The wood piece split in two.And, believe me I followed the instructions very carefully.I've subsequently seen other similar reveiws of this product elsewere.
Because the hindges don't work properly, the lid slams down if not held up.And, while this product does have a finger groove to protect little fingers, there is an area on the sides of the chest that are flush with the lid and thus fingers aren't protected here.
Luckly, a friend of mine is a craftsman and hopefully he'll be able to replace the broken wood piece and fix this problem.
If I were you I'd make sure and buy an assembled chest.I do not recommend this particular product, especially if you intend to assemble it yourself.
