Not intended as usable ...

We have the sandpit now for 2 years. In the first year he was great. We bought it primarily to ensure that children can play in the shade of the roof and the sandbox can be "visited" by cats at night by lowering the roof not. In the second year, it was difficult that roof still get up and down, because the wood has yet very deformed by weather influences. Now in the third year we only have a roof because to get down and make up again is not to think so much is all deformed.
Once again I would therefore not purchase this sandbox!
