Very Useful
"I bought the storage cube bench for my 3 year old daughter. It stores all of her books that were everywhere. She also likes to sit and play on the bench. Very sturdy. I can see her using it for many many years."

Clean & Timeless Bookshelf
"I love walking into our daughter's room and seeing this bookshelf! We filled it up with some photos of her and us at the top cubes and the rest with some story time books and baskets for essentials! You can play around with the cubes and even put stuffed animals in them-we have a few on top of the bookshelf! It fits perfectly with our clean lines decor of charcoal, soft pink and ecru! We will get the cube bench also when we get her a bigger room;-)!"

practical and sturdy
"We have both the tower and the bench for an awkward spot in our kitchen. They work great and help keep tons of stuff off of the floor. Assembly was a bit of a pain, but not too bad and required only screwdrivers. Very sturdy so far. Don't love the cushion options, but got one anyway and it works well."

"This is a nice vertical solution to storing all my kids toys and books. I want to get the bench next so that I have more storage."

Great window seat bench!
"We purchased the 3 cube bench and it looks great under my daughter's window. It holds all of her books and provides her little hands with easy access to every book she owns, as opposed to a taller bookcase where she can't reach the top shelves. My only complaint is with the cushion... I didn't purchase one b/c I did not like the color options, and now I'm having a difficult time finding one that works. Overall a great purchase!"

hours to assemble
"Although I like the look of the 5 cube bookcase, it has some quality control issues. None of the pre-drilled holes in the back line up, so it takes hours of drilling with a screwdriver to assemble (a power drill is not recommended). Some of the holes for the thousands of screws are too deep to use the washers (of which there were too few). So, I will not buy another piece of furniture from Land of Nod that requires assembly."

Keeps toys organized and looking good
"This was a great purchase. Its is sturdy and has so many places to put things. I got the canvas bins (they don't hold their shape that well, but still look better than all the small toys hanging around) to help with teh organization."

Wonderful cube system!
"I just purchased the media base and 2 of the 8-cube bookcases, and just love them. I had purchased the 6-cube bookcase earlier this year, and really enjoyed it, so I decided to add to my collection. The quality is great, and they are relatively easy to put together (just difficult using the allen wrench on all the bolts as you only have 180 degrees and can't turn it all the way around, so it's just a little time-consuming). I have a 15-month old and it's perfect for all his toys, and he can reach the last 2 shelves on his own, which is perfect (I keep DVD's and things on the top shelf out of his reach). You can fit all sizes of books in the cubes, and the canvas bins and the strapping bins are perfect for smaller toys. I love it!"

Perfect Bookcase for books and toys
"We purchased the two tall towers and the bench in blue. It looks really cute framing a window. They were easy to assemble. I did it by myself in a couple of hours. Since the blue is so dark, I left the back off of the towers and it really lightened the look. It looks great against a contrasting wall color (we used yellow). The only reason I gave them 4 stars is because the paint rubs off pretty easily. Some of the corners have rubbed off and we've only had them a few months. Other than that it is great!"

Keeps Kids Rooms Clean
"I love this product. We bought the canvas bins for about half of the shelves for matchbox cars, construction trucks, and legos. The open shelves we split for book storage and a place ot show off some special stuffed animals that don't get played with too often but have sentimental value. My 3-year old can clean his own room and access his own toys when he wants to play. This keeps his room neat and tidy and encourages his independence. We use the bench in the middle of two tall shelving units. Over the bench we hung a US map. He loves sitting on the bench to read and is already learning his states. It's a great quiet spot. A fantastic product."

In Love with It!
"LOVE this furniture. Purchased as pictured and couldn't be happier. The quality and weight of this furniture is awesome. I also purchased 10 of the canvas bins and am anxiously awaiting their arrival to better help me organize my son's toys. Husband put all three pieces together quickly and easily. Would definitely recommend to anyone!!!!"

Best Playroom Furniture on the Market
"This furniture is incredible for the price. Solid hardwood, very durable and scaled to fit a child's playroom. We ordered the Honey 8-cube shelves and the canvas bins and are 200% satisfied. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!"

Fabulous Furniture!
"We purchased the three cube bookcase in honey and the six cube bookcase in white for two different rooms. The quality of the pieces is nothing short of extraordinary for this price point - you don't get this quality at PBK. Assembly was a snap and they are incredibly durable. We highly recommend these beautiful bookcases!"

Great organization
"We love these cubes. We bought 3 sets of 8 in white with all colors of the canvas storage bins. It is a great, easy way to get the kids toys put away into something that looks fun and exciting, yet not messy! We get tons of compliments. We're also starting to velcro pictures of what goes in each cube for organization. So far, that's going great, too!"

White Cube Bench
"I ordered the white cube bench for extra storage and seating for my son's room. The bench had to be put together, which was pretty easy; and it fits perfectly under a standard sized window. I also ordered the strap storage bins, which fit perfectly and add a punch of color. The only things I wasn't too psyched about were the cushion (seperate order) and the nubbins on the bottom of the legs of the bench. The cushion is really hard... the insert could have been a little softer. And I have the bench on a hardwood floor and the leg nubbins are a little slippery... not great traction. But all in all, I would totally recommend the bench/storage bins/and yes, the cushion."

looks great, pain to assemble
"We got the media base and two eight-cube bookshelves for our basement playroom. They look wonderful, but were a major chore to put together, with difficult to read and understand directions and endless screws to bolt in. Like 100 for each piece. So be prepared for a frustrating night of assembling. Once done, though, they are solid and beautiful."
