Melissa and Doug Pirate Chest Reviews
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!!!

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.
