I purchased this sandbox for my granddaughters, ages 2 and 3, and shipped it directly to my son, who put it together. When I saw the sandbox for the first time, I was very disappointed by the quality of the box. The wood is fairly flimsy but I thought the girls were small enough that the sandbox would stay together, despite that. I was wrong. Its been two weeks since the sandbox was put together and the very small nails of the back seat rest have pulled out of the wood. The sandbox can no longer be closed properly. Very disappointed in the purchase.
