Customer Reviews
good sanbox...UNTIL IT RAINS!!!
My husband and I picked this "natural-looking" sandbox out for our son because we thought it would look decent in our yard and still be a fun little sandbox to play in. Well that was true, until it rained. So I then found myself having to open the practically useless lid every chance I got when the sun was out to make sure the sand dried out enough for my son to be able to play in it, which was a pain but worked for the time being...until summer was over and rainy season hit. The last time I checked on it (it's now the middle of winter) it was half full of green water with disgusting drowned bugs and worms in it. I'm completely disapointed with this sandbox, it had such great potential. If the lid weren't a problem I would've given it 5 stars, but it's wothless so it's lucky to get a 1. When purchasing this sandbox, the lid seemed as though it would've served its purpose beause it had a small lip and outer drainage gullies. What I didn't realized is that the lip isn't significant enough and the lid doesn't fit properly to be of asset. Now I'm stuck with a plastic sandbox that can't be used as such and about 150lb of slimy green sand.
BETTER AS A POOL THAN A SANDBOX!!!!
I AGREE W/ THE OTHER REVIEWS.....EVEN THOUGH IT MIGHT MAKE A NICE ADDITION TO YOUR YARD...I SPENT MORE TIME TELLING MY SON TO STAY AWAY FROM IT THEN TO PLAY IN IT!!!! IT FILLED UP W/ TONS OF RAIN WATER, GRASS CLIPPINGS AND MADE A NICE SPOT FOR INSECTS TO HANG OUT IN. THE LID DIDN'T WORK RIGHT FROM THE GET-GO. I ENDED UP GETTING RID OF ALL THE SAND AND FILLED IT UP AS A LITTLE POOL WITH WATER ON REALLY HOT DAYS!!!
Don't buy it!
The lid on the sandbox is basically worthless. It never stays on in even the slightest wind and doesn't fit on it. We found that out too late. It had already rained and the water collected in the sandbox and had algae growing in it by the time we realized the lid had leaked. Not worth the money spent at all!!
