Guidecraft review and giveaway ends July 9-closed

If your looking for great kids toys, kids furniture and etc. If you want to do the kids room or play room in a theme. Well I got the perfect store for you. Its called Guidecraft. They have everything you need and more.

I decided to get the Pirate Collection table & chairs for my almost 4 year old for her birthday which will be 29th of June. She is in love with Pirates and all. I know not your typical girl lol. But that's my Grace haha.
When it arrive it was in a huge box that was extremely heavy and battered up. That's our postal service for you but I must say it arrive pretty fast which was great as well. Me and my son dragged it into the house and down the stairs which I must tell you was definitely a chore. I really couldn't believe how heavy it was and I hoped that after all is bumps and scraps that the inside of the box was protecting the table and chairs.
Next me and my hubby sat down and opened the box to put it together. Me and my hubby were surprise how great the packaging was everything was wrapped in foam paper and tapped. there was Styrofoam and cardboard holding all the piece still. So no matter how beat up and torn up the box was the stuff stayed perfect. That is awesome!!
Next we put out all the pieces and looked at the directions but I must say there was very few pieces and it was all self explanatory. You could look at it and tell where all the pieces go. From Unpacking to finish it took maybe at the most 30 minutes. We were shocked on how easy and fast it was to put together. We wish my hubby's desk and filing cabinet was that easy.
The finished table and chairs were beautiful. I almost wanted to keep them for myself for my photography. My husband even wanted them. He loved the colors of the paint. I loved the little details on the table and chairs. We both love how sturdy the table and chairs were. You could definitely tell the difference from our last table and chairs set we bought at walmart that last maybe 2 years if that and this set. I expect this set to outlast the kids. It is solid wood and very heavy. The paint looks like it shouldn't chip easily. This is a beautiful set from Guidecraft that I wont have to hide away from other people seeing it. It is so pretty I am tempted to leave it in my living room just so everyone can see it. Honestly it would just about match my furniture upstairs haha.
My daughters flipped over it. My youngest thinks it is hers and not her sisters. She does say the Pirates are Grace's but the table and chairs are hers haha. I see the fight beginning already thank goodness there are two chairs but my 5 year old wants to sit at it too and neither one of them will give up their sit for her. This was definitely one of her favorite birthday presents ever. Thanks Guidecraft.
Overall we love the beauty and quality of the Pirate table and chairs. It is definitely a great value for the price. Now I want to get the First Impressions Treasure chest and the Puppet theater. I am very Impressed with Guidecraft products, the packaging, shipping and everything. I don't have any complaints. If I must complain about something then the only thing I can think of which wasn't a big deal is the Letter labels on the parts didn't match the ones on the directions. So if it said part L into part J It ended up really being part F into I. But since I did say it was self explanatory you could tell which picture and part were the same. But other then that minor little thing I love it and the kids cherish it.

Guidecraft is giving one of my lucky reader a Pirate table and chairs. That is awesome!
