Great bins
"Very solid construction. Product was fairly easy to assemble. Only drawback was it took almost a week for the "new" smell leave my son's room. It was a strong odor- I would recommend setting these up somewhere that they could air out first- that is if you're sensitive to odors.
Makes cleaning up toys a breeze!"

Not quite right
Pros: sturdy
Cons: pale in colour
"Great purchase and the bin was super sturdy, but I ordered the pink as per the picture. However the paint was not as colourful as I had thought it would be. The pink is just barely off white which doesn't go great with my little girls white furniture. If I had known, I would have just ordered the white."

Very happy with purchase
Pros: extra hardware!, real wood!
Cons: relatively expensive but worth it
"you know how when you assemble most flat-ship furniture there are 99 pieces of hardware required, and the manufacturer doesn't send a single extra piece?
This bin comes with a little baggy of extras!
I found the assembly was easy, all the holes were where they were supposed to be. The material is very nice, actual wood not veneered particle board.

I spent a solid week shopping online for toy storage that caught my eye, this one jumped out at me in spite of being more than twice as much as one of those 12x12 cube shelving units that seem very popular. These bins are nice and deep to hold lots of toys, and stack items on top, yet they don't overwhelm the room.
I would highly recommend."

Excellent purchase
"We bought 3 of these foe our children's rooms but we ended up stacking 2 of them in our living room. The quality of these are amazing, they are a nice piece of furniture and keeps our kids toys nicely organized! The kids even put everything away because they are easy to see in and see what they want without emptying everything! We bought the chocolate brown colour and they match our other furniture nicely."

Good, but needs improvement in workmanship
"Well, like the PP, I was leery of buying the bins as well after reading some of the negative reviews. After struggling for a while and debating with my husband, I made the executive decision of purchasing them. They arrived in a fairly reasonable time considering the Christmas shipping madness.
Putting together the bins were easy without any help from anyone. It took me about 20 minutes to finish one. However, like some of the negative reviews, I did have to drill my own holes to make the back piece fit. Yet, it is no big deal to do so.
I bought the blue bins to go with the nursery color theme. The bins look great in the nursery room, and holds tons of stuff."

Love It
"I was slightly leary of buying this product based on the other reviews but really liked the idea of the brown blending in with the rest of our living room so went ahead and ordered one anyways.
I recieved the box exactly a week after I ordered it. I assembled the product myself in about 40 mins. Like other posters said, if you've used camlocks its really easy. If you haven't the instructions are great anyways.
I had no hardware problems, no issues with holes lining up. Its study, holds tons of toys and everyhing looks so neat when all the toys are put away, just like another piece of furniture."

Quality Product
Pros: easy to assemble, quality construction, looks great
Cons: price is a little high
"I purchased two of the Chocolate bins and had read the reviews about how some of them were poorly built and that some of the holes didn't line up - well my experience was different. These are well made, and if you have ever put together furniture that uses the cam-locks and screws with wood dowels, then setup will be a breeze for you. If you have not, i suggest you just take your time and follow the instructions precisely, as they are accurate.
These look great, hold quite a few toys and are very solidly built - all in all up to the standard that I have come to expect when I purchase from Costco.
The reason for the four stars, is that I do think the price is a little high, but in the end that is a minor consideration."

So happy with this purchase
Pros: easy to put together, easy toy access for little ones
"We bought 2 of the white coloured bins online and they arrived within 5 days of placing the order.
They are well constructed, went together like a breeze, and look great in our living room."

Excellent toy box
"We really like the bins and are great toy boxes for our daughter. My husband did say that some of the holes didn't line up well and he had to drill. We purchased the chocolate bins which were hard to get but they look great in our living room and match our decor."

Poor batch??
"I had similar experience to the other two negative comments. I would question Costco to see if the last batch of brown bins were poor quality? Hard to assemble as the parts were breaking and the holes did not line up. I love the look of the product in my living room, just not worth the money this time."

Very disappointed, especially for the $$
"I'll start by saying that I have purchased several pieces of furniture from Costco and never been this disappointed,especially for the price! I have always actually been very happy with our purchases includng bunk bed, a TV bracket and TV stand.
I too had read the reviews and was surprised that my item was so poorly made. I had ordered 2 bins online and it took almost the full15 days to have it delivered (the longest it's ever taken), but that was fine since it had said 10-15 days for delivery. Upon assembling the 1st bin, it ws obvious that it was poorly construced. The screws were turning in the predrilled holes and the hardware was bending and not tightening properly. I put it back in the box and returned it ASAP.
However, I did also assemble the 2nd bin, which seemed to go together more smoothly, still not to the standard that I had come to expect from Costco, but enough that I kept it. This bin is the only toy storage I have found that looks like acceptable living room furniture so I really wanted it. I thought I would try to reorder another one to see if I just got a dud, but they don't even offer the brown one anymore!
A friend of mine has 6 of these same bins that she bought 2 years ago and did not have single problem. So disappointed!"

Perfect
"Bought two about a year ago and stacked them in the corner of our living room. Not only are they quality furniture and blend well with our decor; they hide the toy clutter and are very functional. Worked out perfect!"

Worst Purchase from Costco ever!
"I ordered two of these stackable storage bins. Wow putting them together was a nightmare! The hardware kept breaking, nothing lined up...it was disgusting how cheap these things are made. My wife and I could not believe the other review recommendations. I ended up pulling out the drill and building them with screws and wood glue. Complete junk... Save your money."

Great Purchase
"We purchased two sets 3-years ago and they still look great! The bins are in our family room and blend well with our 'adult' furniture, while providing an attractive kid friendly way to keep the toys accessible. Highly recommended."

Easy to keep the playroom tidy
"I bought 2 red ones. They are great! The playroom never looks messy afterwards. I can tidy up tons of toys in minutes. Also red color helps brighten the room."

Great solution for staying organized with kids!
Pros: good quality material
Cons: back of unit shows silver screws
"We purchased 5 bins - two for our playroom, then one each for our children's bedrooms. Assembly is relatively simple - while the first took about 40 minutes to put together (by myself, because I was anxious to see one assembled!), my husband arrived to help with the next one, which took us about 20 minutes flat. The units are sturdy. The two we purchased for our playroom are chocolate colour and they blend into the rest of the furniture on the main floor. We put toys and puzzles in these units that will look neat, as the openings allow everyone to see what's inside. The "messy stuff" is still hidden in our other closed units. I find that the kids play with the toys that are in these units more now that they can see them neatly organized. Although the bins store a lot, we resist the urge to overstuff them, so that things stay very neat.
The back of the unit is finished in the same colour. Although not the same quality as the rest of the bin, it is good enough to place floating in a room and not have the back be an eye sore. We placed our two bins side-by-side and use them as a dividing bench between our playroom and sitting room."

Great purchase to keep the playroom clean!
Pros: sturdy & durable, look great, easy to put together
Cons: paint smell is strong at first
"We bought a blue and a red one to put into our bonus room turned playroom. These have a lot of space for all our little girls toys and really helps keep our bonus room clean! We might buy 2 more and stack them, but as another reviewer said the openings are large enough for an infant/toddler to crawl into, so not too sure on that yet."

Superb Stackable Storage Bins!
Pros: durable, stackable, they don't look too juvenile
"We bought two of these in white and have them stacked. The quality is excellent and they hold a lot of stuff! It's easy for our little one to clean up her toys so things are always tidy! And the way they are open from the front makes it easy for her to find what she wants to play with without pulling every item out."

Great Toy box
Pros: big and deep, nice bright red color
"We purchased 2 in the red color. It didn't take that long to set up and the strong paint smell disappeared quickly. Nice deep areas to store toys and books, but we ended up not stacking them as the openings are big enough for infants/toddlers to climb into. Though, it comes with safety hardware to strap together or to the wall. The best thing is the kids can help themselves and put toys away without catching their fingers. Great quality and bigger than most toy boxes we've seen."
