ToiTissue - storage container by ToiBocks - review by ToyGurl

This toy box is one of a kind! Not only does it look like something completely different, but it is also useful as what it looks like - a tissue box! You can't keep an entire box of tissues inside, but you can keep about 1/4 of the box which is still pretty good. This is great if you want to hide a little something at the office, or at the home while you're living with your parents or nosy roommates who like to snoop around through your stuff when you're gone.


I'm positive someone else has written about how you open this tissue box, or at least partially written about it. All I will say is that there is a compartment underneath the area where the tissues are, and the directions will show you how to open the box. You have to open the box to put the tissues in as well, so you may want to do this when the snoopers aren't around so they don't get a peek at the secret compartment.


The box to this tissue/toy box isn't exactly discreet. It clearly says that this tissue box isn't for tissues, and shows a picture of the compartment on the back. I would open this in private as well to avoid showing your snoopers how to open the box or where the compartment is.


I read in other reviews that people received their tissue boxes with cracks/dents. I also received mine the same way, however I don't want to return it because to me, all that matters is that it hides my secret objects. I do think that this has nothing to do with shipping or packaging, but more so poor craftsmanship of the company. This box scratches very easily, and that is something both my husband and I have noticed over the course of the last two months. I was walking downstairs with this box (because I actually needed the tissues) and upon setting it down, a little chunk of the paint came off. Not so huge that I was ready to demand a refund, but I realized that I need to be more careful with this box and maybe use it only for hiding toys.


The inside of the secret compartment is lined with velvet, and cannot easily be cleaned if you happen to spill some lubricant inside (I did this...) so you want to avoid keeping leaky bottles inside unless they have a bag over them. If you do spill something, avoid water at all costs. If paint is already falling off of this box, imagine what water would cause! Especially since it's made of wood. Try using a we wipe, and then let the compartment sit out to dry for at least two hours.


To give you a decent idea of what can and cannot fit inside this box, I will name a few toys and day to day objects for you:


- O2 Cush Dildo: Will NOT fit. Too thick.


- Je Joue MiMi: Will fit... with room to spare! The charger to the MiMi, however, will not fit easily unless turned on it's side.


- Pink Water (large bottle): Will fit, but you have to place it in carefully with the nozzle turned to its side.


- 10 Snickers Bars: Will fit! Great hiding place for candy in the office!


- Violet Wonder Glass Dildo: Will fit with room to spare


- Cell phone: Will fit with room to spare


- Bottle of Good Head Flavored Lubricant: Will fit with room to spare



How many toys was I able to fit at once? 6 small toys, 4 medium sized, 3 large.
