Product Description
Product Description
The KidKraft Bookcase with Reading Nook is popular with parents because of its clever design, sturdy construction and aesthetic appeal. Combining a cushioned seating area with bookshelves gives you two spaces in one furniture piece. Kids can store books, toys, blankets and more in the six shelves, then curl up on the three-sided angled middle section to read or rest. The two tall shelves on the sides are perfect for accommodating taller picture books. Place a lamp on the top sides for cozy light. Three gray cushions stay securely onto the base with self-adhesive strips. Available in trend-right colors to match your home's décor, the Bookcase with Reading Nook will help keep any kids room or playroom organized and neat.

Packaging: Although well-packaged, two of the pieces did have some damage. Thankfully they were both in places that were not visible once assembled. (See photos) The package did use styrofoam which wound up leaving little crumbs all over my carpet and stuck to the furniture piece itself. Nothing a quick vacuuming can’t handle.
Size: Check the product measurements because it is toddler- sized. Photo of my 36” tall 2 yr old sitting on it for reference. Fits perfect next to our reading chair in his small room.
Quality: It’s particle board, hence the price. The cushion fabric seems thick and sturdy as does the interior foam of the cushion. The Velcro which holds the cushion to the bench appears quite strong.
Practical use: The size is perfect for my 2yr old and he can probably get several years of use before he outgrows it (provided the quality holds up). It holds a lot of books but the little cubbies are odd shapes and sizes. Unfortunately none of them will hold standard 10x10 storage cubes (which I knew already before purchasing). Finding storage boxes to fit nicely inside for toys or small items may be difficult.
Overall, so far so good. Item is as advertised and we hope it will last a few years of use.

Got this for my 5 and 3 year old for Christmas. It was on sale. Lets start by saying I wish I would have read the reviews.
Lets start with the building part. They dont differentiate in the pictures which sides are the brown sides and which are the white sides so after it was together I had to paint over the brown parts to match the library because it assembled wrong.
Then I got about 2/3 of the way through and realized the screws were really made from Satan himself. They are supposed to just easily go inside and turn the bolt to hold it in place. Ha. Haha. Hahaha to this.
3.5 hours before I gave up and used wood glue to make sure it is stable enough.
Then when you assemble the VERY last step, you realize the bolt and screw they give you do not work on a SLANTED wood piece. 2 bolts stripped because you cant get the screw into the bolt because of the angle. So Idk what Im going to do about this because its very unsturdy.
On top of it it just turns to dust when youre building it. Seriously dust everywhere from the wood just being cheap as ever.
It took me and my boyfriend (a construction worker) 4 hours to finish this piece of crap.
It definitely will not fit my 5 year old and theres no way my 3 year old is relaxing comfortably on it.
Save your money or look for something that has better reviews. I would 100% return it if I didnt paint it (which I was doing when my bf realized the screws dont work). And it will only hold maybe 10 large books. So if you have a big library for your kids good luck.
The instructions were pretty straight forward...it took me about an hour+ to assemble all but the last 3 pieces (minus the time I spent looking for the missing hardware piece. I assembled all but the last 2 pieces. I will say, the little number stickers used to identify the pieces were a PAIN to get off. Some didn't come off fully. I used the back of one of the mangled stickers I peeled up to repeatedly press on top of the sticky residue until most of it came up, and repeated with each sticker thereafter (you could use some packing tape too I bet).
I'd give fewer stars, but Amazon was quick to come to my assistance and offer a full, hassel free refund. I'm thankful for this.
Perhaps my experience was a fluke and the quality of their products is usually better...

En la "garantia" te menciona que puede traer detalles, y si es de un material algo delicado. De por si ya venia con algunos talloncitos, si se les barre algun tornillo al momento de instalar, puede dañar el material.
De igual manera el resultado es bueno, para niños menores de 4 o 5 años, creo que esta bien. El resultado igual es lindo. Ya les actualizare despues si es resistente.
