I have to start by saying that I bought this blanket box to paint and I needed it quickly for a bedroom project I was undertaking, so my comments reflect this context. Firstly unlike many other suppliers, Cotswold do not offer delivery slots and I wasted a day hanging around. When delivered, I noticed a significant split in the frame and the slats to the back section were not pinned and you could move them around and form gaps. In addition, one of the nylon leg caps at the bottom was damaged. The lid is formidable relative to the body of the chest, to the point that it feels unbalanced. I used glue and filler to solve the damage problems prior to painting but if I had not been painting it, I would have sent it back. I tend to buy furniture based on weight and looks and for the most part, this beats the competition (if in good order). Last but not least, the polystyrene wrapping makes a right mess as it is so fragile and I would suggest opening the product in an easy clean area. Tim, Bristol
Thank you very much for taking the time to write such a comprehensive review of the blanket box. Our delivery options do vary from order to order, dependent on the size of the order. The default service for this order was indeed an all day service and thus you were only able to pick a date and not a time, however, upgrades are available and full terms and conditions can be viewed on our website for these. I would always suggest reporting any problems with orders directly to ourselves as soon as possible, though I understand if this was not really an option in your circumstances. I note that you generally rate the build quality and value for money fairly well, but if you feel there is anything else we can do please get in touch.
This is a good quality product which offers plenty of storage space and is at the same time visually attractive. The lid hinge is excellent.
Box arrived well packed for transit and in good condition. Appearance just as I wanted and nice and solid construction. Super value for money compared with other similar items for sale.
