Household Essentials Dome-Top Painted Fir & Engineered Wood Trunk Duo

Well made. Perfect for pet food storage and a great place to feed the cats while keeping cat food elevated and away from where our rabbit can reach. Fast shipping and rustic looking. This chest really ties our DIY cat wall elements together. The most impressive thing is the non-skid rubber feet. We have a tile floor and this trunk is the only piece of furniture that doesn’t slide or ‘wander’ on our tile floor. It stays securely where it should be. I also love the lid mechanism. It prevents the lid from slamming down but is super easy to open and close.

Mediums size trunk purchased in the warehouse. Trunk came ALMOST fully assembled. Due to defect, the side and lid were not attached. If you buy a full price, I’m not sure if this trunk is fully assembled. I am giving 5 stars because of the price and look. I purchased in the warehouse for a steal, but the trunk had issues: -The top was not attached, but had been -the side was also not attached, but had been I nailed the side and top (I need more nails for the side) I read the reviews prior to purchase: THE NOISE, is a bracket that holds the lid in place so it doesn’t slam down. When you open or close it clicks, that’s it. THE WOOD, is authentic so there will be some flaws, that’s what makes it nice THE SMELL, mine did not have a smell. I do believe it was put together poorly, and you may need to reinforce with common household nails. OVERALL, descent size trunk with aged look, value for the money if you can get in the warehouse. *I use the trunk for storage of my supplies and staging pics on top. The little things pic on trunk are florals and mine so please disregard*

I really like the design concept of this chest. No assembly necessary; it comes as it appears in the product listing. The combination of rich wood grain, juxtaposed with the industrial edge of the galvalume, merges the aesthetic of two worlds quite nicely. It's sturdy enough to secure about 100 or so lbs of various items. However, I wouldn't load it like a Hope Chest, with the way the primary structural materials are composed. Rather than adding the galvalume as an accent sheathing, they fashioned the wooden framework of the of the chest, and used the galvalume to cap/close the 4 side planes, INSTEAD of wood panels. I can't quite tell how the sheets are mounted/fastened, but I'm being mindful of how much weight is resting against them from within. It feels like a big price tag for a chest that has this lack of structural integrity. Everything feels assembled securely, though; as I was able to lift and carry this chest to it's current position in my living space, without causing the unit to flex or collapse anywhere. Lots of space for storage within, and it looks AMAZING. Overall, I'm quite happy with the product itself, even if it seems a bit expensive for how it's designed, structurally.

VERY CUTE BOX, I'M USING MINE AS A BABYSHOWER GIFT BOX TO FILL UP AND THEN IT CAN BE USED AS A SMALL TOY BOX OR JUST A STORAGE BOX. THERE IS FLAWS IN THE WOOD BUT THAT IS TO BE EXPECTED WITH REAL WOOD. I LOVE IT

Just received the chest and was so disappointed when I removed it from the box. There is a large crack on the top and when I opened the lid, there was more damage. I do not understand why it was boxed in that condition...it is being returned and it’s such a shame. This was my second purchase of the chest. It looks great and blends easily with my decorations and color scheme. If not for the damage, it would have been a perfect match. The wood material is less than a 1/4” thick on the top however; the bracing under the lid was damaged. It may have survived whatever was placed on it, if not for that. Value for money - 1 star. I had no issues with the cost of an undamaged chest which is why I purchased the second chest. I do have issues when I make a purchase and the item is damaged. That is when the value for the money decreases. As stated, the wood is thin however; I love the rustic look of the metal attached to the wood. Based on the damage, I can’t say it’s sturdy.

I spent hours trying to find a box by the door we can throw shoes in. Tried one but so flimsy it broke getting it out of the package. Here is the just of the box... Pros...does look decent, sturdier than others I have tried, after I removed the bar hinge that allowed it to open at different heights-see below, it worked great. Overall, I am pleased and would buy another one. Cons...not so sturdy you could throw in tools, drills, etc. etc. Works great for clothing, small toys, shoes etc. The stress hinge that is supposed to allow the lid to open at different heights is worthless. It has a terrible popping sound, and does not work for 'half open' anyway. I did find however, if I removed the side hinge...easily done, the top opened great...really, it works better without the side hinge. Sooo much better than the vinly covered storage boxes that I bought from Amazon Two month update. The box is still working great by the door for shoe storage. As mentioned earlier, the side hinge made a terrible popping sound...but easily removed, back hinges work great. Would recommend for light to moderate storage needs. Have tried all types of vinyl storage boxes....the wooden easy to open and shut wins by far. I would buy another down the road if needed. Worth the money for storage that people will see in open areas.

The trunk itself is very nice, it's well made, it's all that I had hoped for.

Perfect size (large). Can be used as a side table, storage etc. I love it :)

My Headline says it all This trunk is very cheaply made and the finish is terrible

This is the perfect item for what I wanted. We redid our daughters room in a Moana theme and wanted a treasure chest. one that she could use for keepsake items when she gets a little bigger (she is 5). The chest is exactly as described! it makes a cool three click sound as you crank open the lid which she loves. It is made with strong hardware that only allows the lid to open straight up so it doesn't fall backwards once lifted. It smells absolutely amazing since it's real wood. Very lightweight!

This Wooden trunk looks great with the decor of our cottage. We store our chopped wood in it for our fireplace. My husband made a wood piece to sit on the bottom. It is very durable and perfect in every way. I would recommend this trunk.

J'ai acheté ce coffret pour compléter mon ensemble de chambre à coucher. Il est parfait au pied de mon lit et peut contenir environ 6 ensembles de draps ou 3 grosses couvertures. Pour le prix, je suis vraiment satisfaite!

Loved the detail.. perfect size! Well made product.. reminds me of Sweden
