Q: The description says the lid protects from weather but it looks like it has holes and groves for water to get it. Does it protect the sand from rain and bugs?
A: It does not have a bottom. We put down weed barrier before the sand. It does get wet but dries out fast since it drains out. We always spray for bugs in and around it. We have had ours for two years now and it has been worth it. It's held up very well and it is my sons favorite thing to do when he's outside.
submitted byCcmom - 7 years agoA: Thank you for your question. We will address the issue with Target.com and ask them to update the content. The folding benches are designed to protect the sand from animals and large debris. Rain will drain through the spaces between the wood slats. And the sandbox is bottomless for further drainage.

Q: How long does it last before having to be replaced??
A: Thank you for your question. This item is designed to be outside and last generally as long as children will be interested in it. However, this can vary greatly based on your climate, where the sandbox is placed (sun, shade, etc), the amount of usage, number of children consistently using it, how much wear and tear it placed upon it. So this is not a question that has one single answer that can be guaranteed. It will depend on the conditions of your yard, where you live, and how heavily or lightly the product is used, etc. We, the manufacturer, are always here to help at any time needed. We have U.S. based customer service and are happy to help by email or phone. Our contact information is labeled onto every one of our products and every product includes an assembly and usage manual that should always be retained to refer to in the future.

Q: Is there a bottom to this sandbox?
A: Thank you for your question. This sandbox is bottomless to allow you to adjust sand depth (if you want a deeper sandbox, you can excavate into the ground to make a deeper well for holding sand) and also to allow for drainage if there is a lot of rain. To see what this looks like, scroll through all the photos at Target.com and it does show an assembled photo of the sandbox empty so you can see there is no bottom.

Q: Is this pressure treated wood? If not, is it completely non toxic?
A: Thank you for your question. The wood is heat treated to around 100 degrees C and then a stain is applied. All our wood sandboxes are fully compliant with all applicable ASTM children's product safety standard for products of their type which includes testings on the surface coatings.
