 ARG!! Great toy!Jun 13, 2007
By Sunset

My 3 and 8 year old boys love this treasure chest. It is heavy, very sturdy and well constructed. The skull latch pivotes to side to release lock, and it is easy enough for my 3-year-old to operate easily. Inside the chest is a slightly raised bottom with three planks of wood; the middle plank can be removed to access the secret compartment. The fabric flag and eye patch are substantial enough. The plastic coins are heavy, thick, well-made and deeply imprinted with a skull. The chest is large enough to hide other objects. I like to fill it with different things and have them go on a treasure hunt. Measure approx. 9.5" wide, 6.5" deep, 7.25" tall.

yo ho ho! super fun pirate toy!May 30, 2007
By L. Bieber
My daughter (age 4.5) received this for Christmas after admiring it at her cousin's house for over a year and asking for it every time she saw it in stores. Since then she has played with it over and over again and totally loves it. Please don't let the other comment on this sway you, I don't know what that person is talking about. This is similar to other Melissa and Doug toys, which I think are very durable, quality, classic products. Your child will have a blast pretending to be a pirate, counting the "gold" and hiding secret treasures in the secret compartment at the bottom of the chest. You don't need a lot of bells and whistles to have very fun, imaginitive play. I highly recommend this over all the new Pirates of the Caribbean branded products which shouldn't even be marketed to children in the first place (hello, it's a grown-up movie!) - this product is much more appropriate for young children. Make yourself a newspaper hat and have some old fashioned fun with this great toy!!!

 great for treasuresJan 13, 2008

My son is 11 years old and wanted the chest just to keep his own personal treasures. He loves it. It's smaller than i thought it would be but it's just right for what he uses it for.

 Great toy, poor constructionApr 21, 2010
By Mom in Massachusetts
Our kids LOVE treasure chests, we hide things in them and play pirate often. We bought this toy for our son for Christmas and by the end of that day the top of the chest had fallen off! The hinge is secured with rivets and evidently these are not strong enough to secure the top of the chest! Now we have a chest in two pieces, rendering it useless! The wood seems to thin to try and replace the rivets with screws, but at this point we may try that just to give it one last chance. For $22.00 it should be much more durable!

Not pirates of the CaribeanApr 17, 2008
By M. Rose
"Who else would I be?"
This treasure chest is not from Disney. Thank God!
The chest is fairly solid (we've had some problems with a rivet but it's not a big deal. The hidden compartment is good, although, it would be nice if there was a way to brace it in, in case the chest is flipped over...again, not a biggie. The coins are nearly unbreakable, but dull copper, which is unexciting to my 5 year old, but cheap plastic coins are available in party supply store for practically dirt. The eye patch is ignored and the Jolly Roger is ignored, but when he wants to play pirates, this chest is always part of the play - every time. Another winner from Melissa & Doug.
