I bought this for my grandson to store his toys when he's at my house.  
It looks like "furniture" for a child: very well made!
The package indicates "ages 2 and up." I didn't see that at first. 
I think that age recommendation is there because a one year old would have trouble reaching the top shelf and reaching all the way to the bottom inside. I'll just use the lower shelf for books until he gets taller. 
One good thing about using it for a 1 year old is that he can't pull the top closed. I can just leave it open when he's here and close it when he isn't here if I want to.
The material is sturdy and I don't have to worry about corners. 
I really like this!

Cons:
