This is one of the worst purchases I have ever made. I purchased this for my son to store his Matchbox and Hot Wheels cars and I should've listened to the other reviewers who said the cover breaks off. I decided to order it anyway because I thought perhaps the other reviewers had just gotten bad individual cases. I couldn't have been more wrong, that's for sure. Shortly after ours arrived, we discovered that the cover comes off the hinge - almost every time my son opens the case. You *can* get the cover back on, but only after a lot of effort (as well as some swearing). It wouldn't be a big deal if it only happened once in awhile, but it happens every day. Also, if you aren't careful, you end up pinching one of your fingers while trying to get the case back on. Seriously, this evening, I fought for nearly five minutes to get the case back on.

I have to think the makers of this case were aware of the issue before they shipped it into production and decided to ship it anyway. I feel like everyone who has purchased this awful item should be given a refund. I am ordering a different case today because I simply refuse to put up with this awful case any longer. Buyer beware.

The box broke in one day. The door came off the hinge and can' get it back on. Waste of money do not buy this.

My wife bought this for our son while visiting in the states along with several cars. She had no room in her suitcase for it and ended up shipping it back home with cars loaded inside! We were surprised at how sturdy this little box is considering that it is made from cheap plastic!

My son loves it and so far has not broken it. It was bought for the short term and not expected to be kept as a collectable! He is nearly three and we were thinking that it wouldnt make it to his fourth birthday! With how well it is holding up, I think it just might surpass that and our expectations of use!

A surprisingly good buy!

I love the durability of this car holder but my son is 2 and cant get it open. That is the only bad part.

Not sure what happened to the other reviewers but we haven't had a problem with this case. It get hauled around the house, dropped, and bumped into things without any negative effects. Great way to bring Matchbox or Hotwheels cars on the go or just a good way to store them around the house!

Its verry nice it says hold 75 but can fit many more my son has a hard time opening it but h has a spot for all his cars

this gift was for my 8 yr old grandson. He wanted a matchbox storage case and there were none available here or surrounding towns.found it on Amazon..he was happy, which made me happy

I love the shape of this case for holding all the Matchbox cars. It seems as good as the "old" ones and it seems as sturdy but, we won't know that until it has been used for a few months. I ordered this Dec. 5, 2011 and didn't receive it until Dec. 22, 2011. Almost had to choose something else.

I thought this car case would be the perfect thing to keep all my sons' cars in one place. Unfortunately, once it came off its hinges (which was shortly after getting it), it never stayed in place again. Very disappointed, I would definitely not recommend this!

This case is incredible hard to open and shut. The lid fell off within 48 hours and was impossible to get back on. It is extremly heavy and not portable for a preschooler. I bought it for Christmas last year and it was in the garbage within 2 months.
