Editorial Review
The Barbie Toy Box is a basic and solid piece of wooden furniture that lets you clean up a room in a jiffy by throwing everything inside, and also has a cushioned top that turns it into a comfortable bench when closed. There is a locking hinge that lets you keep the top propped open to prevent pinched fingers. Then there are the cute, Barbie touches: the box sits on four round, pink feet, has flower-shaped holes on the side, and the cushioned top is covered with a pink, patterned fabric. All hardware necessary for assembly is included, and the process goes quickly (though of course never quite as smoothly as you expect). All you need is a Phillips-head screwdriver, a little patience, and about 45 minutes. --David Stoesz
