2.5 star rating: a good idea, processing standard

Basically, we find the structure and the concept of the sandbox great, especially the two seat boxes for the kids and you can cover the sandbox and so can protect against unwanted visit from eg cats, we found very good. It is an elegant and practical solution that can convert the cover by folding the seats. However, there was in our sandbox defects in the processing, so that we had on the first day to carry out repairs.

The construction went quickly and easily, the included instructions describe precisely what needs to be done. Even in the construction, we found defects in the first processing. So the timber was partially torn at the locations of the screw and the screws looked clearly out. One would in the production well to predrill to help prevent tearing. Next noticed that each only two hinges at the sides not provide sufficient stability, especially for children with lots of energy. So we now have a respective further hinge mounted and must also replace two hinges that were broken. We do not know whether this lack of processing existed only in our sandbox, or if it occurs frequently.

Once built and strengthened, we have the sandpit with five sacks a 25kg filled. The sandbox had for our taste like to have been a little higher, a 5 year old child sitting on the bench a bit low, on the other hand the sandpit in the present level is also well suited for small children.

Meanwhile, the sandbox is like and much used, after we have successfully strengthened him, he makes no more problems and preparing the little ones a lot of fun.

Overall, we awarded the Sandbox 2.5 stars we just round up to three. It annoyed us that still had to be reworked and the first day queuing repairs. On the other hand, the concept is good and now holds the sandpit and much good stuff out.
