This box was just what I was looking for. I wanted a simple box that played a tune when opened and a ballerina to spin around. It was for my 3 1/2 year old, so I didn't want something too fancy, expensive, or complicated that she would break. This fits the bill. She LOVES it. It is actually very pretty and the little ballerina is on a spring so she has some nice movement as she spins.

I bought this for my three year old niece and she loves this jewelry box way more than any of the jewelry that came with it. She adores just watching the ballerina twirl. She's pretty rough with it and it's not broken or scratched yet so I that makes it a durable toy. This was the prettiest ballerina jewelry box I could find on the net and in stores.

I just received this jewerly box today. It is for my daughter's b-day. It did have a visible scratch, not happy about this but I do not have the time to return it as the b-day is around the corner. The ballerina is cute and simple with black dots for eyes and a little smile. The music is very clear and at a nice volume. The mirror inside is not a plastic immitation and looks nice. Overall, I like this box better than another bought at a higher price. It plays the Swan lake melody as described. The other one I ordered promised the same but plays something else, So I thought it is worth mentioning. It is a pretty box, and worth it.

The little 6 year old loves it a couple of weeks after receiving it. It is smaller than I had wished for ,but very pretty. I would not consider it a toy, but a special place for little treasures. The music from Swan Lake is very beautiful and not tinny. It was wrapped well and arrived in perfect condition in no time. I think I picked out the nicest of the jewelry box selection that Amazon had.

My granddaughter just loves it. It's not the best quality but the price is right. And, at 4yrs old - not bound to last anyway. It's perfect for her now.

I sent this jewellery box to my 4-year-old niece for her birthday and she absolutely loved it. I was told that she squealed with delight when she opened the parcel and hugged the box like if it was the most precious jewel. It's a wonderful gift for any little girl who loves ballet, princesses and jewellery.

I bought this for my 6 year old niece & she adores it. She loves ballerinas & the color is very pretty on the box. It is big enough for her little amount of jewelry that she has now. She will eventually grow out of it but I think it should last her quite awhile. I think any girl would love this!

It was cute - but didn't last long. The dancing ballerina broke within days. Too much money for such a delicate childrens item.

I ordered this for a Christmas gift for my 3-yo daughter. When she opened it I realized the silver paint on the sides of the mirror are all smudged and doesn't look great. Since it was around $12 (and she's happy with it) it was a low priority to contact seller for an exchange-- and now a month later getting around to it, I realize I'm too late. Check yours when it arrives!

I bought this for my 10 year old daughter. She has other more expensive (and better made) jewelry boxes, but I remember having something similar when I was a child with the music and spinning ballerina, and I wanted her to have something similar. She takes ballet and I thought she would appreciate the music and "dancing" ballerina. The quality of the box is okay. The colors on the outside of the box don't appear as bright as the picture, but is still very nice, with a satin-like sheen.
I would not expect this box to hold up to a younger child/toddler, it will hold up to be dropped but not thrown or held by the lid and swung around, and it will hold up to being used as a jewelry box (with constant opening and closing to listen to the music). In otherwords, if the child is old enough to use the jewelry box AS a jewelry box (and not as a projectile) then the box will hold up just fine.
The music is clear and nicely played. This is a good starter jewelry box, it lacks the sophistication and space that would be appealing to an older child/teen. My daughter LOVES it, it will be something she remembers having as I do my old box (which was probably similar quality). I think as adults we would like the quality to be better, but a child would never notice, and the novelty of a music box with a pretty "dancing" ballerina inside is more than enough to outshine the "flaws." Overall I would recommend the product with the warning not to have high expectations of the quality.
