Perfect Height
"I purchased the bench cube because I was looking for something that could hold toys, but also have a surface at a height where my 2 year old could play with her dollhouse and pirate ship. I was really tired of them being on the floor (or worse - our coffee table). It's perfect! I bought little baskets for the cubes and they hold her smaller toys that would get lost in the bottom of the toy box. Very happy!"

One Cube Bench Perfect for Small Mudroom

Held up beautifully
"We bought this for our son when he was born - he's now 5 and there is not one nick or chip on this bookshelf. One of the best 'kid furniture' purchases we've ever made."

Great product!
"I absolutely love this unit. It fit perfectly on one of our baby's playroom walls with a window fitting in the bench area. It's tip resistant kit is great peace of mind but isn't exactly the most quality kit because it uses zip ties. It does work great though. Be careful in assembly. It is easy to put the bench area together with some pieces assembled backwards. After you've screwed it into place, it's impossible to put together correctly without leaving holes in obvious places. All in all, this really is a great product that we get a LOT of compliments on."

Great bookcase/bench unit
"We purchased two of the 4-cube bookcases and one 3-cube bench. The set-up is super cute together, and we're very happy with it. It seems to be sturdy and well-made.
My only two complaints are that the bench cushion isn't all that comfortable, and the construction of the items was a little difficult. Actually, it was only installing the backs of the bookcases and the back of the bench that was difficult. The screwholes just didn't seem to line up no matter how hard we tried, so we ended up using a powerdrill and making our own holes. Not a big deal but kind of frustrating and time-consuming.
Overall though, we're very happy with this product."

Back panels are thin and flexible
"I just received the 8-Cube bookcase and was surprised to discover the back panels are not wood or some type of solid wood substitute. They are very thin like cardboard. I was surprised because this was not clear to me in the description and because I have previously purchased many items of furniture from Land of Nod and have always been extremely pleased with the quality. Had I known about the back panels, I would have purchased a different item. In my experience, this type of back panel has extremely low durability."

3 Cube Bench
"Bought it in white and chose the blue denim cushion. This is so great to have as it provides seating and storage. It looks great too. I put ours in front of the window (low to the ground outside otherwise I would put against a wall). Its very inviting to sit on and the kids always want to try it out. The bench is very sturdy in construction and design. The bottom has a middle piece that provides extra support on the floor. This was super easy to put together too."

The perfect bench
"I purchased the bench for my daughter's playroom and it is perfect! I can store a lot of her toys on the bottom and the cushion is really soft for people to sit on. The only bad thing is the velcor straps are really long and hang underneath. But other than that, it was a great purchase"

best quality and worth the price!
"Beautiful cube collection with espress color we ordered for my daughter's playroom. Nice and organize the toys and books off the floor to store in cubes. Beautiful quality made from Thailand! Just awesome!"

Worth the Price
"I bought the bench, which is actually a lot longer than the picture seems. I also bought the 8 cube bookcase. I love them both and so do the kids. They were so excited to have it and organize their toys. They love to sit on the bench too. It is a little high for them so they step in the cubes which is fine as long as they don't have shoes on to make marks. I am very happy with this product. I had debated it because of the price but figured it was worth the expense then buy something cheap and have it fall apart. This is solid wood furniture that I see being used for the long haul. We plan to put it in my daughters room after they outgrow the playroom."

Great storage!
"Bought this piece for my son's room. The look of it is great--good finish and nice detailing. The shelves give great storage and we were really pleased with how many toys fit in the bins. The only downside we've seen is that it does scratch pretty easily--especially when toy cars drive on the shelves!"

These are OK
"For the price I think they're great, but this is probably not a piece of furniture that will be in our daughters room for the long haul."

Awesome
"I love this product. We use it for our playroom. We use the middle section (bench) to hold our flat screen TV and works great for that purpose. The bookcase is used to store toys, photo albums, kids games etc."

Awesome!
"We purchased the 3-cube bench along with the cushion for the top. It sits under the window in our daughters' room and is a great window seat. We use it as a bookshelf and it is the perfect size for almost any book. It is also nice that it has a bit of storage space underneath to store puzzles and bigger books. We would buy this again and wish we had more room and more money so we could get some of the other configurations available. It is very sturdy and was simple to put together."
